Rikomagic unveiled their MK80, MK12 and MK05 Android media players a few week ago, and somehow I missed (or ignored) their Rikomagic V5 TV stick, which looks very similar to Jesurun T034 / MK802 V powered with Rockchip RK3288 processor, and features an Ethernet port, but differs as full-sized USB ports are used instead of mix of micro and full-sized USB ports. All four devices, even five with MK80 Plus, are now available on Rikomagic’s Aliexpress store.
MK80 and MK80 Plus are Android mini PCs powered by Allwinner A80 SoC, and are probably using the same Sunchip board as Tronsmart Draco AW80 Meta and Telos, The standard version comes with 2GB RAM, 16GB eMMC, and the “Plus” version with 4GB RAM, and 32GB eMMC, and can be purchased respectively for $155.90 and $199.99 including shipping.
MK12 is based on the new Amlogic S812 processor which adds HEVC/H.265 hardware video decoding up to 4K UHD resolution, and Gigabit Ethernet support compared to Amlogic S802, and comes with 2GB RAM, and 16GB eMMC. It sells for $101.90 on Aliexpress, again including shipping.
MK05 features Amlogic S805 processor, providing a low cost solution for people wanting to play 1080p videos, and support H.265 hardware video decoding, as well as 1GB RAM, and 8GB internal storage. The company offers it for $68.90.
As aforementioned, Rikomagic V5 is a Rockchip RK3288 TV Stick, with 2 GB RAM, 16 GB flash, that sells for $107.90.

It’s quite possible I got an early sample of Zero Devices Z5C, and since then thermal issues have been resolved.
If not, and they sell the device, they will get a lot of returns, and unhappy customers.
Thank you for the replys and your great job, it help me a lot 🙂

Benchmarks for V5: http://cngadget.info/2015/01/01/rikomagic-v5-rk3288-benchmark-tests/
The device seems to work great.
Only lacked the temperature test on demanding 3d game.
Thanks!!
