3. What is the difference between S905X5M

Android TV Box and S905X4?

1. CPU & Process Node

• S905X4:

  • CPU: Quad-core ARM Cortex-A55 (up to 1.9–2.0 GHz).

  • Process Node: 12nm (efficient but older fabrication).

• S905X5M:

  • CPU: Quad-core ARM Cortex-A55 (likely clocked slightly higher, e.g., 2.0–2.2 GHz).

  • Process Node: 6nm (newer, more power-efficient, better thermal performance).

Key Difference: The S905X5M’s 6nm design improves energy efficiency and reduces heat, enabling sustained performance in compact devices.

2. AI-SR (AI Super Resolution)

The S905X5M introduces AI-SR, a dedicated AI-driven upscaling technology, which is absent in the S905X4.

• S905X5M:

  • NPU Integration: Equipped with a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) for AI tasks.

  • AI-SR Functionality: Uses machine learning algorithms to upscale lower-resolution content (e.g., 720p/1080p) to near-4K quality by analyzing textures, edges, and motion. This reduces blur and enhances detail in older or low-bitrate videos.

  • Real-Time Processing: The NPU handles AI tasks independently, freeing up the CPU/GPU for other operations, ensuring smoother performance during upscaling.

  • Adaptive Optimization: Dynamically adjusts sharpness, noise reduction, and color accuracy based on content type (e.g., movies, sports, animations).

• S905X4:

  • No Dedicated NPU: Relies on traditional CPU/GPU-based upscaling, which is less sophisticated and more resource-intensive.

  • Basic Upscaling: Uses simpler algorithms (e.g., bilinear or bicubic interpolation), resulting in softer edges and less detail recovery compared to AI-SR.

Key Difference:
The S905X5M’s AI-SR delivers significantly sharper and more natural upscaling for non-4K content, while the S905X4 lacks advanced AI enhancements.

3. 6nm vs. 12nm Process Technology

The fabrication process is a major differentiator between the two chips:

• S905X5M (6nm Process):

  • Efficiency: The 6nm node (TSMC or similar) packs more transistors into a smaller area, reducing power consumption by ~15–20% compared to 12nm.

  • Thermal Performance: Generates less heat, enabling fanless designs or quieter cooling systems. This also prevents thermal throttling, ensuring sustained peak performance during extended use.

  • Performance Gains: The smaller node allows slightly higher clock speeds (e.g., CPU up to 2.2 GHz vs. 2.0 GHz on S905X4) without sacrificing stability.

• S905X4 (12nm Process):

  • Older Node: Less efficient, leading to higher power draw and heat output.

  • Thermal Limitations: Often requires active cooling (e.g., fans) in TV boxes, which can add noise and bulk.

  • Performance Cap: Lower maximum clock speeds due to thermal constraints.

Key Difference:
The 6nm process in the S905X5M improves energy efficiency, thermal management, and potential performance margins, making it better suited for compact, always-on devices like streaming boxes.

4. Connectivity

• S905X4:

HDMI: 4K*2K UHD Output, HDMI 1.4/2.0

• • Wi-Fi: Support WiFi IEEE 802.11 b / g / n / ac
    Support 2.4G and 5G
    Two external antennas
    

  • Bluetooth: Support BT4.X

• S905X5M:

  • HDMI:  4K*2K UHD Output, HDMI 2.1a

  • Wi-Fi: Support WiFi IEEE 802.11 a/ b / g / n  
    Support 2.4G and 5G
    one external antennas

  • Bluetooth: Support BT5.X
