I have recently been using an Nvidia Shield Pro and results were generally very good apart from Dolby Vision support and the recent update to Android 11 which had many problems. On checking various Forums and media player reviews I decided to give Zidoo a go mainly due to its 4K menu support and Dolby Vision support. I decided to go down the Zidoo Z9X route as all the players had the same video engine albeit with slight ram changes and my main interest was film playback (not music playback for which I use other equipment).
My initial impressions on unboxing was what a poor mains adapter I just couldn't get the plug arrangement to work and the minor problem lack of batteries for the remote. Surely in this day and age a proper mains adapter for the country could be included or a better designed multi type of connecter setup of which there are many so much better.
Moving on to the positives I am very pleased how the box operates particularly handling of 4K menus and Dolby Vision support and also the picture quality. Initially I thought the picture quality was a little soft and lacking in color pop but with some adjustments and with some running in time it is now fine, possibly just a little bit better than the Nvidia Shield.
So at the moment I am pleased with my purchase of the Zidoo Z9X and appreciate the rapid delivery from Futeko but please get a better power adapter.
