That standby temp is most definately different. Even after watching a video for two hours, mine quickly drops below 50C within minutes.
I agree that browsing a (big) library is more intense than the actual playback. I think that was the only time I could push the box towards 70C. But that was a forced behavior and not how I would actually use the box
Coming from a S905X, the gui performance of the x96 air is a pleasent surprise for me. Most definately noticable. I made the switch for better subtitle rendering but the gui speed is now a nice extra.
I will keep in an eye for any performance drops in the gui but my guess is that I would either not push it towards throttling or wouldn‘t notice.
Reading some of your other posts, is the gui performance of the x96 air non-throttling really comparable to the N2? Because the only reason I would have bought the N2 would be for absolutely ace gui performance, like I have on my nvidia shield (which unfortunately sucks in so many other regards).
I really can see no difference between the N2 and the X96Air when running CE, but I do run my X96Air with Performance Governor. Maybe there is a slight bit but I cannot notice it.
If there was a noticable difference I would run the N2 on my main living room system. I don’t because I use a Khadas toneboard for the audio and this is a better match to the X96Air.
Hi, I have such a problem that I can turn on the gigabit LAN only with the command “ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 duplex full”, by default, after turning on, I only have 100 Mbps. Installed the latest stable release and sm1_s905x3_4g_1gbit.dtb. What could be the problem?

The problem is not on CE side, it’s on your network:
“Link partner advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full”
It doesn’t offer 1000baseT/Full during auto-negotiation, although it seems to be capable when you force it by command. Check for interface port settings.
Maybe Android has a different timing for network startup, or just doesn’t use auto-neg at all, who knows.
You may check if the behaviour of your router changes over time, by dis-/re-connecting the cable & rechecking the announcement.
No, I understand everything. In the router I can configure the Green / Power Mod which corresponds to 100/1000, and all 5 LAN ports are set to 1000. I have a Fritzbox 7590 and this is a top model.
I have the Fritzbox 6490 and a X96 Air P3 and I have no problem. All ports set to 1000Mbps (power mode). I used the same latest stable release and same dtb.
Actually I bought the box two times and both have no issue at all with the Fritzbox.
Is a switch between box and router? That might cause issues.
Did you try a different port on the Fritzbox?
Anyway, whatever it is, it has nothing to do with CE.
Sure you can always try installing CE again, which shouldn‘t be an issue especially if you have a spare micro sd around. But other than that I doubt there is anything within CE that you can do simoly because nobody else seems to have this specific issue.
