Hi Guys,In this review i will be looking at the new Vorke Z6 form Geekbuying

Vorke Z6 - The Most Powerful Android TV Box
It turns out, this part of the question is actually very simple. Vorke Z6 is one of the msot powerfull smart Android Nougat TV boxes powered by the Amlogic S912 SoC .Yes you heard right, it is the best box available at this moment.

When it coems to memory, Vorke Z6 has 3 GB of RAM combined with a 32GB of storage space which of course you can upgrade using the microSD card. As you can see, without exaggeration, it has strong hardware for its price tag.

Of course, you may try many different things from playing games, watching 4K movies, to surfing the Internet and more importantly, everything is expected to work precisely as it should. In a nutshell, Vorke Z6 should be the go-to choice if you’re someone who`s new to streaming devices and TV boxes, or a professional who wants an option to install whatever apps that are preferred.

Video Playback with Kodi 17.4

Normally, Kodi is the key to every media player, Z6 is no exception.It comes with the newest Kodi 17.4 which will worklike a charm. In other words, it will work without any lags, when watching movies, TV shows,playing games, or whatever of your choice.

AC WiFi, Gigatbit Ethernet and Bluetooth 4.1 Connectivity

We noticed that cheaper models does not have some connectivity functions like Bluetooth which is very important for several reasons, especially for wireless keyboards, mouses, and most important gamepads. But don’t worry, Vorke Z6 has all connectivity functions including Bluetooth v4.1, besides the Wi-Fi 2.4GHZ/5.8GHZ 802.11a/b/g/n /ac, and 100M/1000M Ethernet.






The Vorke Z6 arrived to the UK in just under 2 weeks via snail mail so not bad postage time at all.
