Five generations now, Rikomagic has been very popular in the Mini PC on a stick market, and the company's latest generation V5 Android media player features the powerful Rockchip RK3288 SOC to deliver performance in the most demanding applications. The V5 promises to deliver rich multimedia content in up to 4K resolutions, advanced 3D graphics in the mobile device space and fast compute power in a very small form factor.

The Rikomagic V5 connects to a TV or screen via its HDMI connector and has wireless connectivity to allow connection to the internet and other wireless devices. The device runs the latest version of Google Android (Kit Kat) which gives you access to many apps, a bit like turning your TV into a giant Android tablet.

Rikomagic can be used as a media center to play HD films on a large display, it can also be used as a games console, desktop computer replacement or as a professional digital signage solution. The device is controlled by a wireless controller, simply plug in a wireless mouse/keyboard and you can browse the web, check emails, blast some zombies, listen to music or download a movie right from the comfort of your arm chair.

For gaming, the V5 features a Quad Core Mali T764 3D Graphics proccessor combined with the Quad Core A17 RK3288 SOC. The combination also power 4K content using the onboard hardware video decoders.

The Rikomagic V5 also comes with 2GB RAM / 16GB ROM . The micro SD card can be used to expand the storage further. The media player also comes with Gigabit Ethernet, 2 x Full Size USB Host (1 x OTG), RJ45 Ethernet, Android 5.1.1 (upgrade from 4.0), Wifi 802.11ac & Bluetooth 4.0LE and supports up to 4k 60Hz output.

Below you see the retail package for the Rikomagic MK22, which can be purchased online for ~$97. The price is vrey high considering the fact that it is powered by an older generation chipset, but let's hope that its pwerformance worth it.

Here is what 's included in the box:

1 x TV box
1 x HDMI cable (extended adapter)
1 x Power adapter (EU/UK/US/AU)
1 x USB Cable

As you see no remote control is included, since this device is meant to beplugged into your TV set. You can still control the device using either your TV's remote control or a special apk software.
