Magicsee N6 Plus: review, specifications, reviews
And again, in our review, the products of the Chinese brand Magicsee. After 1 quarter, after entering the console market N5 Plus, the manufacturer has released an updated version - Magicsee N6 Plus. It would seem that the company's technologists did all the work on the bugs and eliminated all the problems. After all, that's what major manufacturers do. Alas, nothing has changed.
The video review of the set-top box was released by the Technozon channel.

The Amlogic S922X chipset is immediately evident, on the basis of which the legendary Beelink GT-King and UGOOS AM6 Plus consoles are created. It is not difficult to guess that the declared technical characteristics will be almost identical. Well, the price is over 100 US dollars. Naturally, the buyer will certainly have only one question.
Has Magicsee really achieved the same perfection?
Magicsee N6 Plus review
Outwardly, the prefix looks attractive. Starting from the finish of the top cover, ending with an excellent assembly and an informative panel. According to first impressions, the Magicsee N6 Plus TV box justifies its price.
In the kit, in addition to a good HDMI 2.0 cable, there is a remote control popular among buyers - G10S. Yes, the same as the Beelink GT-King.
The interface of the main menu of the TV box is very nice. On the one hand, it’s pure Android. On the other hand, there is a navigation menu that is easy to hide and a very informative navigation bar. Fans of curtains will have to install the component themselves.
The network in the Magicsee N6 Plus is working fine. This is not to say that 5 GHz Wi-Fi is wonderful, but better than many representatives on the market. The wired interface is also not a concern.
| Download Mbps | Upload, Mbps | |
| LAN 100 Mbps | 765 | 860 |
| Wi-Fi 5 GHz | 210 | 260 |
| Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz | 70 | 75 |
As for multimedia, there is nothing to worry about with such a powerful chip. In 4K format, YouTube, IPTV and torrents work great. Not to mention the playback of heavy files from external media. I am glad that the forwarding of multi-channel sound works. With toys, too, there were no questions. All resource-intensive applications run easily and work at maximum quality settings.
Magicsee N6 Plus Features
The disadvantages include trotting. The prefix heats up very much and, trying to maintain performance, begins to underestimate the frequency of the processors. It is noteworthy that in the main menu the heating temperature is incorrectly displayed. When installing third-party programs, you can see the chip warm up to 90 degrees Celsius. And, at the same time, on the panel the temperature remains within 42 degrees.
Judging by user reviews, Magicsee N6 Plus works great together with a portable cooler VONTAR C1. The console, having the most productive chip on board, is ideal for any task. And the price, in comparison with the representatives of the Premium class, is 10-15% cheaper.
It is hoped that the manufacturer will not abandon the support of its products. After all, timely released firmware is valued by buyers above affordability. Time will tell.
