Ugoos X3 Cube Review
This is the latest TV box from Ugoos and this is the Ugoos X3 Cube Amlogic S905X3 2GB 16GB quad core 4K TV box. This the second generation of the cube model running on the new S905X3 CPU clocked at 1.9GHz and the Mali G31 GPU. We are beginning to see the roll out of new boxes on the new S905X3 and I am sure that this is not the last of the Ugoos boxes for 2019. In this review I got slightly better performance than the X2 model. The X3 has a few additional new features including a new custom Ugoos alternative launcher. It has the same drawbacks as the X2 models but I had a better overall experience.

Conclusion
Its over performance is great, you have good hardware, smooth streaming, feature-rich interface, innovative features, good benchmarks placing high on the chart, and gaming with keymapping also good. My areas of concern are the low speed on the 2.4GHz band, no DRM for Netflix in 4K, limited RAM internal storage, and the CPU temperature rises depending on what you are doing on it.
