Hi folks, This time my review is for the New Venztech V8 Amlogic S812 Quad Core Android TV Box KODI 2GB RAM 16GB ROM AP6335 802.11ac WiFi Android Tv box from Venztech
I got the Venztech V8 from
It took only 5 days to arrive to the UK from china via DHL with no customs to pay (i
was lucky)
Quick facts
The S812 device is more or less the same as the S802 but adding H.265/HEVC video

It comes with 2GB of ram 16GB of rom Witch is a nice size for an android tv box plenty
of room for all your apps, games & still lots of room left over.
It has 3 full sized usb ports,1 is a otg port (the USB port nearest the back),micro sd card slot,AV,ethernet,HDMI out,SPDIF & the power port.
Oh & not forgetting the recovery button.
Venz V8 is high performance smart android tv box, kodi support hardware decoding H.265 4k2k 8bit local video format and HTTP, RTP, RTCP, RTSP, RSVP, MMSP online video protocol.
Features:
1. KODI support hardware decoding H.265/HEVC 4K2K 8bit video.
2. OTA update for OEM
3. Easy to install addon repository
4. Key in remote full match kodi
5. Full metal housing/case with LED clock
6. 5dB external antennal
7. AP6335 2.4GHz/5GHz dual band WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0
Internal Photos
I love the S812 Tv box's there so fast, much faster than any other tv box right now they play movies & games with no problems.
The Venztech V8 comes with a M8 style launcher called the V8 launcher witch does the job quite well (But there is no bottom status bar i really miss this)A quick edit of the build prop soon sorted that out..I would hope to see a standard launcher included in the rom too with the bottom status bar included.

I have already tried a lollipop Fw on my Venztech v8 Wifi chip ap6335 (Beta Lollipop Firmware - MXIII-G(S812+1/2G+GigaEthernet)
Rom installed fine
1.wifi (works)
2.Ethernet (not working)
3.Bluetooth (not working)
4.V8 remote (no longer works) but the mxiii G remote does work
5.The didgital clock on the v8 box (no longer works) Expected this not to work
Switched back to the v8 stock rom with out any problems
So it does look promising for futour Fw releases

The Box design its self is very well thought out using a metal case with a heat sink that makes contact with the case via a thermal pad,Vent holes in the bottom of the case to help draw in the cooler air Looks like they have really thought about this box.The box gets slightly warm that's about it, i like the fact it get's warm it proves that the heat sink is doing its job correct.
Kodi
Kodi 14.2 preinstalled with tons of addons (also some adult content)
Supports hardware decoding H.265/HEVC 4K2K 8bits video format.
•Almost compatible with all online video protocol.
•Key in remote fully match KODI.
•Easy to install addon repository.
Its been playing 720p & 1080p over my wifi network perfect
Games
I dont think you will have any problem with games on the V8 as the metal case will keep the unit cool = less stress on the processor.
Beach buggy blitz plays perfect with the graphics set to high using a ps3 gampad with sixaxis app 0.8.3 also using the tronsmart Mars G01 game pad.
Wifi
The wifi is quite strong giving me good downloads speeds & picking up my naibours wifi network no problems
Other
Logitech c270 webcam (works)
Samsung 1TB external powered HD (works)
