Impressive. It's a decent home theater box with great 4k playback capabilities and support for 24p and high-end lossless audio formats. This machine isn't perfect. It has a noisy little fan that runs most of the time to keep the system cool and running consistently. It also lacks bluetooth and Wifi although Voyo appears to be packing in an 802.11n WiFi adapter in the box. And of course there's the issue of Voyo's abysmal customer service that never responds to requests. I would like to see this offered as a standalone "bare bones" configuration with no storage and RAM just to bring the price down and to allow choice of components. This one as configured costs $235 at Gearbest.com.
