The VOYO V2 now comes with windows 10 preinstalled & is fully activated, it runs nice im really starting to like windows 10
The looks of the VOYO V2 are very smart indeed also the performance matches the looks with its snapper windows interface & modern feel about it.
The boot time on the v2 is very fast at around 15 seconds to complete AWESOME love the fast boot on this thing & 3 seconds to shut down.
The VOYO V2 is powered by a quad-core Intel Atom Z3735F, the same chip found in the voyo v1, pipo x7,belink p1,Ainol ect ect.
I was expecting the SSD to be a micro SD card so i had to take it apart to see what iv got but no its a real SSD.A KingShare KH200064SSD, a 1.8 SATA II SSD with 64GB capacity (shows 58.2GB), a read speed of 150MB/s, and a write speed of 80MB/s according to specs iv seen
Internal photos
I would not recomend taking the voyo v2 apart as it has a glass top witch can be broken very easy so be warned.
The wifi antenna is not soldered its a propper connector
KingShare SSD when removed
The V2 has a metal body with a glass surface on top of it. Its quit slim with dimensions of 131 x 83 x 16 mm. It comes with a built-in 5000mAh Lithium battery & a 64GB SSD.
The v2 has WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, USB 2.0, HDMI, RJ-45 (1000mbs) and MicroUSB port.
Its a real shame it only has one full sized USB port as most people will need at least two so this is a big draw back for me,
Also it has no venterlation holes (Big mistake) i would of thought they had learned from the over heating problems of the v1 but no seems not..It does get rather warm using wifi & especialy playing games saying that it plays games like ashphalt 8 & beach buggy racing with ease.
My v2 has been on now for the past 8 days constantly streaming video from my ip cam's & its only been shut down to do some windows updates ect.
During all my testing iv not suffered from any unexpected shut downs or lock ups. everything seems to be running perfect touch wood.
Also kodi runs very well indeed i think the windows tv box's are much better with kodi than any android, it just seems to run so well no stuttering that iv noticed
A cool app to control your v2 using your android phone,iphone or windows phone

Logitech c270 Webcam works
Tronsmart Mars G01 Gamepad works Well
Samsung M3 NON powered 1TB Hard drive works
Wifi the wifi on the v2 is nice and strong it found and connected to to my home network with no problem at all.
Same with the Bluetooth no problem sending & receiving files & photos from my phone & tablet.
Overall im very happy with the voyo v2 just wish it has another two full sized USB ports & some vents to help with the cooling.
It would make a perfect living room or bedroom tv box
