Pivos XIOS DS Media Play! Android Media Player Review

What review from eTeknix would be complete without some technical specifications so you know what we are working with. The Pivos XIOS DS Media Play! is by no means a power house but it certainly has enough hardware to get things done – being based around the tried and trusted ARM Cortex A9 processor. There are two hardware revisions of this product the old M1 and the new M3, you should only find the new M3 in the market now since the M1 is very old, but just bare this in mind as the M3 revision has much better specs:

• ARM Cortex A9 Single Core CPU at 1GHz (M3 Revision) or 900MHz (Old M1 Revision)
• ARM Mali 400 GPU
• 1GB (M3 Revision) or 512MB (Old M1 Revision) of Hynix DDR2 RAM
• 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi Module
• 10/100 Ethernet LAN RJ45 controller
• 2GB Storage
• USB 2.0 controller
• IR sensor
• Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (rooted)
• Firmware used: XIOS_DS-ICS-010813-M3
