Since OTT box products have developed at explosive speed in 2014, until now, the hardware performance of the box is basically saturated.

As Hai Meidi’s “value†of this year's box, it has to be said that the mango Q H5 is indeed an ingenious piece that combines the two major features of metallic glory and mellow triangle, interpreting the exquisite design concept and placing it in the living room. Undoubtedly made a beautiful landscape.
Mango å—¨ Q H5 abandoned the traditional "black brick" box design, the use of sleek triangle shape concept, the size ofmm, compact and lightweight, top silver, side and ground are cool black, the whole gives a deep sense of thick .
The cover is made of aviation-grade aluminum-magnesium alloy material. It is gradually concentric and artistic from the center of the panel.
