Judge me by my size, do you? The NEXBOX A95X



This review is for the A95X with 2gb of RAM and 8gb of internal storage, running Android 6.0.1.



Your first reaction upon opening the box will be, “Wow. This is smaller than I thought it would be.” But don’t be fooled. Much like Yoda, you would be remiss to judge the A95X by its size. This is the most powerful Android box I’ve ever owned and I’ve owned a bunch of them.
First, the launcher is finally a handsome thing you might even want to keep. It’s functional, well organized, and quick. As someone who’s stuck Nova Launcher on every other box he’s owned, I Think I’ll live with this launcher for a while.
Next: Performance. This little wonder is as fast as any box I’ve ever used. The combination of the S905X SOC and 2gb of RAM make this much more than a great KODI box (and it is a great KODI box). Gaming is silky smooth and the Bluetooth connectivity makes using a game controller a pleasure. Both native android games and emulators run like a dream.
The WiFi works well and speeds absolutely blaze through Ethernet. I have a 75/75 connection through FiOS and this A95X uses every bit of it. It actually speed tests faster than my base connection speed.
The combination of Android 6.0 and an SD card slot means you can set your SD card as internal storage and never worry about running out of space. Go ahead. Download Asphalt 8, Riptide GP 2, and all those first person shooters you love. There’s room for all of them now.

By now, you’ve figured out that I like it. I do. If you’re in the market for a top notch box in this price range, you can’t go wrong with the Nexbox A95X.
