Today we have in our hands the The Eachlink X3 Mini, an entry-level and affordable smart box designed for entertainment. The device is powered by an AmLogic S905X3 chipset and runs in Android 9.0. It uses 4GB of memory and a 32GB eMMC can be used for installing apps and games. In terms of connectivity, you will have 2.4/5G Wifi along with 100Mbit LAN and Bluetooth.
Priced at just €35, the device sounds like a decent entertainment solution, as long as its performance and compatibility with video and audio files prove to be good. On the other hand, there are many other media players out there available at the €35-40 price range, based on the same S905X3chip, with some of them to offer on paper even better specs and possibly firmware supports.

How can I install the official kodi program instead of the kd player because it doesn't allow me to install the kodi. In kdplayer, dolby atmos can only be played in 2.0. How do I fix this? Thanks
Dear friend!
I installed kodi from kodi.tv. Unfortunately, dolby Atmos still only plays in 2.0 and does not play dts hd at all, only in plain dts. Did the dolby atmos work in real 5.1 or 7.1 during testing? Thanks for your help!
dear friend, from our tests Dolby atmos only plays in 2.0 channels, not 5.1 or 7.1...please read https://www.cdrinfo.com/d7/content/eachlink-x3-mini-smart-box?page=2
