When it comes to the rapid technological advancements in smartphones, the pace of innovation in smart TVs seems to lag behind. However, when purchasing a smart TV, one mustn't overlook the hardware configuration. A poorly optimized TV can feel like a frustrating experience when trying to run multiple apps or handle demanding tasks. So how do you assess the quality of a TV's hardware? Let’s explore this topic further.
**Chip Architecture Determines Performance**
As we all know, both smartphones and smart TVs rely heavily on ARM-based core processors. While mobile devices primarily focus on efficiency and battery life, smart TVs emphasize robust hardware decoding capabilities. Some common TV chip manufacturers include MStar, Hisilicon, and Huawei HiSilicon. Even if a TV doesn’t explicitly mention its chip type, you can make a general assessment of its performance by considering the underlying architecture. After all, the architecture serves as the foundation for the CPU, playing a pivotal role in determining the overall performance.
The ARM architecture includes various generations such as Cortex-A75, A73, A72, A57, A53, A35, A32, A17, A15, A9, and A7. These iterations follow a roughly annual progression, with newer models generally offering enhanced capabilities. Recently, at a tech event prior to the Taipei Computex, ARM unveiled the latest Cortex-A75. For now, the Cortex-A73 remains ARM's most efficient and powerful processor.
For instance, Skyworth’s G3 series TVs launched this year are built on the 64-bit Cortex-A73 architecture. Currently, TVs equipped with this architecture are relatively scarce. Many flagship models still use the A53 architecture. Thanks to advanced 10nm manufacturing processes, the performance of the A73 architecture surpasses the A72 by 30%, and compared to the A53, the A73 boasts over double the performance, with a nearly 90% improvement in responsiveness. This makes it a genuinely high-performance TV.
**Memory Matters More Than Just Size**
There’s no denying that larger memory capacity is always preferable. However, beyond sheer size, it’s crucial to pay attention to the specific specifications of the memory.
High-performance processors demand high-quality memory. Having reached the performance and bandwidth limits of DDR3, DDR4 emerged as the next-generation solution. Today, many smartphones and computers utilize DDR4 memory.
However, most smart TVs on the market still rely on DDR3 memory, with DDR4 being relatively rare in this domain. The aforementioned Skyworth G3 uses the latest DDR4 memory, reducing the supply voltage from 1.5V to 1.2V, ensuring both higher performance and lower energy consumption.
Is the configuration of a TV important? Absolutely. With the growing richness of smart TV content and applications, the demands on TV systems continue to rise. For example, the Skyworth G3 features the latest upgraded Cool Open System 6.0, which significantly differs from its predecessors, 5.5 and 5.8. By presenting content in a new waterfall-style interface, users scroll through fresh content with their remote controls, placing even greater emphasis on system fluidity. Based on past experiences, the overall smoothness is closely tied to the TV’s high-standard hardware configuration.
Skyworth G3 also comes with built-in entertainment games like "King of the People" and "Full Dance." Compared to standard video applications, these games involve more complex operations, requiring sufficient hardware support. Otherwise, slow loading times or sluggish performance could negatively impact the user experience.
Unlike smartphones, smart TVs typically have a longer lifecycle. Therefore, when purchasing, it’s essential to opt for high-performance models that offer smoother operation and remain relevant for years to come.
