2015 Radio and TV on the control of the box increased
As 2015 is about to pass, this year is also an unsettled year for TV boxes.

The box can even be forced to automatically upgrade and delete the application. The dissatisfied voice of consumers is also understandable. The development of television boxes will naturally be overshadowed by various targeted policies.
Imperfections in smart TVs give box development opportunities
In recent years, smart TVs have gradually occupied the market. The essence of smart TVs is the flat-panel TVs with built-in TV boxes. So in the era of smart TVs being popularized, many people will have television boxes that will decline due to the popularity of smart TVs. Doubts.
