Hi!
I've bought one Wetek Core, these were my experiences with it.
Well, after some tests ive made, alongside with Shield, its one of the best Android box on the market.
I already had some Minix, K, and MX, but
Why Core is different from the others?
Well, first of all the support of this device is awesome!
After reading a lot on kodi and openelec forum, I realized that the Wetek brand grew a lot on the past months.
They support the teams like no other.
Libreelec was created a few weeks ago and already has the support from the wetek brand.
Kudos on this!
My review on the device.
Well, the box itself is pretty, no big deals on the concept, 2 external usb and 2 internal.
Honestly I would like a better refrigeration system, but after running 4k all weekend, the box was warm, but nothing to be panic of.
The RCU, its light (no batteries included ?) the air mouse does the job, but I have a K400 and I use it for everything.
Connected the Wetek core and made the update, in here I disagree on something, I had to use a mSD card to make the update, but it seems its only on the old firmware, after this I wont need the mSD again.
Everything updated and fully working
I have to say, the Wetek core launcher is the simplest but very intuitive launcher!
Connected my G account and made the updates for kodi and some other apps.
Downloaded the Netflix, my old minix only had 720p and all the reviews said that core were capable of 1080p!
And its true, they deliver full HD content on Netflix, no issues, no stutterings, all great!
They also have a app to change the refresh rate so we can have true 24p content on some movies/tv series
The only issue on this, is if you select one app for 24p, it will be slow on the menus ?
Connected a Xbox360 controller and I was able to play some games from playstore without issues.
Tested the dreamcast emulator reicast and played Shenmue
Besides that, its android, you have all the cool apps from PlayStore
The dualboot its great, the ability to have Android and OpenELEC or LibreELEC its awesome.
The ability to change between them using only one simple menu its very intuitive.
OpenELEC, everything runs very smooth, even with the MQ6 (heavy skin) the Wetek doesnt sweat.
Just connected my NAS and everything was there, my movies and tvseries.
FanArt and BoxArt without any effort.
But!
In life nothing is perfect, on the first update I had to use one mSD card so I could update my device.
It doesnt come with batteries, and the packaging could be better.
On my TV, HDMI cec didnt worked well, but my PS4 doesnt work either, so its the TV.
Ive registered on their forum and the community there is great
Always trying to help, and forwarding some requests the users make is very very good.
For me it was one of the best purchases I ever made!
Feel free if you want more answers on this
