Inext, a Ukrainian company founded in 2009 that specializes in developing and manufacturing Android STBs and Media Players for both B2B and B2C markets, announced that it has developed an exclusive modern media player with Android 10 (AOSP), Wi-Fi AC and Bluetooth 5.0 for Ukraine's largest mobile operator, Kyivstar.
The amount of Kyivstar TV's subscribers is constantly growing thanks to high-quality service and a large number of supported devices, such as Android set-top boxes, that have a significant volume among customers, said Inext.
Inext set-top-box provides Kyivstar TV’s consumers with an easy and affordable way to watch any entertainment content on their TV. Inext TV-X is based on customized Android 10 (AOSP) operating system (OS). TV-X sets up easily and comes with everything you need to get started, including a clear in usage remote control, High-Speed HDMI Cable. Wi-Fi AC module helps the device to reach necessary connection speed to watch high-quality content in 4K without LAN cables.
Bluetooth 5.0 module allows to connect wireless devices: remote controls, gamepads and headphones. Bluetooth 5.0’s primary strengths are improved speed and greater range. In other words, it is faster and operates over greater distances than older versions of Bluetooth. With Bluetooth 5.0 data transfer speed is up to 2 Mbps, which doubles what Bluetooth 4.2 supports.
