Beelink i68 Rockchip RK3368 TV Box Unboxing and Teardown

Rockchip RK3368 started shipping last month, and thanks to GearBest, I’ve received my first 64-bit ARM TV Box withbeelink ione i68. Today, I’ll take a few pictures of the device and the board, and will follow up with a full review in a few days.

The box was sent to me via DHL in a cartonboard package various information about the “Smart Android TV Box” such as Android 5.1 operating system, an eight core CPU with G6110 GPU, 4K2K and H.265 support, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0, and eMMC flash.

该包装包括盒子,英语快速启动指南和HDMI电缆,一个IR遥控器,需要两个AAA电池,一个USB OTG适配器以及带有我们和欧盟插头的5V/2A电源适配器。

An SD card slot, two USB 2.0 host ports and a micro USB OTG port can be found on the side, with the rear panel comes with the following: a power button, the DC jack, another USB 2.0 host port, an HDMI 2.0 port, a Gigabit Ethernet port, and an optical S/PDIF audio output.

If you prefer watching the unboxing video, here it is…

Time to open the device. First remove the four sticky pads under the case, and untighten the four screws. The enclosure won’t come out yet, and I had to insert a sharp plastic object to pop the top cover out.

There’s just a heatsink for cooling the processor. I’ve removed the three screws that hold the board to the enclosure in order to take out the board, and removed the heatsink.

There’s some thermal paste between the processor and the heatsink, but I have not cleaned it up since I still need to test the box.. a Foresee NCEFES78-08G eMMC 4.51 flash provides 8GB storage, and two Samsung K4B8G1646-MYK0 DDR3L chips gives us 2GB RAM. The WiFi module is the ubiquitous AP6330 for dual band Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity. Other chips include 53AKXRG3 (not sure what that is), andGL852GUSB 2.0中心。可以在GPIO(2X),ADC,UART(2X)和I2C的板上找到几个未供电的标题。董事会命名:Netxeon RK68_V2.0_20150528。

板的背面没有太多可见的东西,除了贴纸以证实了RK3368,AP6330 Wi-Fi模块,2GB RAM和8GB闪光灯的规格。冷却溶液显得有些奇怪,因为将热垫放在金属板上一半,在通风孔上放置一半,不确定这是多么效率…

Beelink i68 is available now, and you could consider purchasing it fromGearBest for $78.99 with 2GB RAMas shown above, or$71.18 with 1GB RAM,,,,but it can also be found on other retailers such asAmazon US,,,,eBay,,,,Geekbuying,,,,andAliexpressamong others.

Very interested in seeing what type of Linux support emerges for the 3368 eventually. Obviously that will take time, but 8 cores, 2gb RAM, and gigabit ethernet are not a bad starting point for an Ubuntu or other Linux machine.

您确定它的千兆互联网是我从Gearbest收到的互联网只是标准速度吗?即使规格说SD卡最多只有64GB矿,最多只能读取32GB。顺便说一下,Kodi在与Nvidia Shield Android电视盒中相当的盒子表现出色

Dunno if Kodi 15 or newer boxes are the reason that Kodi has been running well in later android mini pc’s.

I’m looking forward to see if you can get it play[email protected]视频内容。SPMC 15 ISENGARD PEGS在VP9上100%CPU,表明它使用软件解码,而Big Buck Bunny X264 4K(这意味着硬件)上的CPU为20-30%CPU,但仅获得15fps。

内核4.3已经包含基本支持,其中RK3368可以从某些SD-CARD/EMMC或USB设备引导到ROUTFS中。到目前为止,仅串行控制台。

Gearbest在7月以欧洲电源错误将其交付给我,幸运的是,我从HPH盒中有一个用于测试,并最终购买了适当的电源,此前有许多承诺向我发送正确的电源Gearbest从未做过。
