Dreamlink T2 with Android 7 Nougat at it’s core

questuion ...
did anybody actually check the T2 and the Z7 for what RAM they actually have ?
Hearing from a supplier thru a third party does not count.
Maybe the Z7 is 1 GB and the T2 is 2GB
or they in fact are both 1 GB or both 2 GB

Seems you guys are jumping ship before the ship leaves the harbour :eek:
 
Dreamlink is not just simply North American version of Formuler. Dreamlink owner purchases large enough quantities to warrant rebrands and basically chooses which formuler models he wants to rebrand and sell here. He would have requested only 1 gig of ram perhaps to save a buck (input conspiracy theory here). You will see both the T2 and Formuler z7+ distributed in North America with the latter sold at a premium.
 
Sufficient RAM is important, however 1GB is plenty for most STB streamers. If you are running games or multiple simultaneous apps, you might need more. Android 7 does a good job of RAM management, so I suppose that 1GB is good enough. We'll see after we get actual reviews of this box.
 
the t1 plus came out less then one year ago and they already coming out with a new one , I hope this company
Doesn't become the new avov but i love my t1 plus it's a really great product.

dreamlink has been around a long time and has built so far the best i have had and are not even same boat as avov.

Formuler z7+ will soon have a sub forum on our boards.
The box is set to be released in Toronto, perhaps today :)

And Dara has said exactly what I should have said about that 1 GB RAM
Thank-you sir :)

I agree from an IPTV perspective that 1 gig does the job (even 512 on the Dlite), however, as you've stated I'm also curious on how big a difference there will be between the two. How noticeable will that extra gig of ram be on the Formuler for things like kodi or what have you.

My fear is that despite the update to android version there may not be much difference between the T1 Plus and the T2 when it's all said and done. I know the GUI at least on the formuler z7+ remains the same as prior Z series devices.

Exactly. The use of the extra RAM comes through the box being more capable as a true android box. Being able use other apps, like kodi and such, was always a downfall of the T1 and I always felt it was as much a hardware problem as an android version problem. There just wasn’t enough speed or memory to properly run kodi, or the spmc fork that you needed for kitkat.

The Z7+ should have more than enough of both.
 
It might be nice if the manufacturers of both Dreamlink/Formuler were able to send a box to the Forum Mods for some evaluation. Have any of the Mods been in contact with the manufacturers?

thnx divo, and yes, they always are in direct contact with the staff here.
Dreamlink has always sent boxes to the staff and site owner since, well since forever. Is why you may see guides and reviews of boxes before most others have the box.
They know the value of that :)
It started with their very first Dreamlink fta SD box and continued with each new box they put on the market (fta and iptv), soon to include the Dlite, the T2 and the Formuler boxes.

Look forward to a raffle or two for one or two of these boxes as well :)

Hmmm...note to self...pull a Tanya Harding on one of the Mods at iptvtalk.net so I can start getting free boxes to "test"! ;)
