Sweet!!! The Original A95X F2 TV Box Model – S905X2 4X Dolby Atmos

A95X F2 TV Box Review

This the first the original A95X F2 TV Box that made waves this year in the second quarter. It is the first model that other sellers rebranded and customized but it is the same core hardware. What’s the difference besides being the original model? Well, the only thing separating the original model from others is the performance, but by how much. What about firmware updates, pricing and customer support? Well if you already own one then let me know in the comments below.
