HDMI input is another differentiating feature of several Rockchip RK3588 devices, and the settings in Android 12 are pretty basic with some CEC control, and the ability to change the name of the interface… As a side note, Onkyo has filed for bankruptcy, but the brand will stay alive through a joint venture between Sharp and VOXX (a subsidiary of Premium Audio Company). That does not look promising, but I’ll enable all of those, and we’ll test them later. Many are listed as unsupported despite the mini PC connected to an Onkyo TX-NR636 AV receiver that supports them all, except Dolby Atmos. When using HDMI passthrough we can select audio formats such as DTS-HD or Dolby TrueHD. The Audio settings are also interesting with Decode (software downmixing), HDMI Bitstream (HDMI passthrough), and SPDIF passthrough even though the hardware does not come with an S/PDIF port. If I had an 8K TV lying around in my house, I could also have tested 8K resolutions. Going into Display, I could select the resolution up to 3840x2160p60.00 when connected to a 4K television, and up to 1920x1080p60.00 when using a Full HD monitor. I won’t go through all the settings since most are common to other Android 12 devices. It turned out I had to disconnect the Ethernet to make WiFi work, and from there it worked like a charm. It worked but not without some effort, as initially, all I got were messages like “Couldn’t find SSID” both with 2.4GHz and 5GHz SSIDs. While the first time, I used Ethernet, and also tried WiFi 6 connecting the R58 to Xiaomi Mi AX6000 router. Most of the settings are pretty much standard. The Google Play store is working, and I had no troubles installing all apps I needed for the review. User interface and settingsĪs already mentioned, the box ships with Android 12 for TV and the stock launcher. I’ve now had more time to play with Android 12 on the Rockchp RK3588 mini PC, so I’ll report my experience with the device. I’ve written the first part of Mekotronics R58 review last month with an unboxing, teardown, and first boot with 3D graphics benchmarks.
