Tanix 2025 Recommended Android TV Boxes: Top Picks for OEM/ODM Buyers

In today’s streaming-first world, smart homes, hospitality deployments, schools, and enterprises are increasingly demanding robust and future-ready Android TV boxes. The global Android TV box market is set to grow rapidly — estimated to reach around US$12.4 billion in 2025, up from about US$10.17 billion in 2024.

At Shenzhen Oranth Technology, under our Tanix brand, we are proud to present our 2025 recommended product lineup for OEM/ODM partners. These devices are engineered for long-term deployment, strong performance, future-proof features, and flexible configuration.

Why Tanix? Choosing the Right OEM/ODM Partner

Choosing the right Android TV box partner for 2025 means more than just price-point: you want hardware built for streaming evolution (4K/8K, AV1 codec), smart home integration, software update readiness, and global enterprise readiness (hotel, hospitality, education, ISP deployments). For example, future trends include integration with AI, IoT, and smart-home ecosystems.

At Tanix, we offer:

• Multi-chipset support (Amlogic, Allwinner) with strong AV1 capabilities on Amlogic.
• Flexible RAM/ROM options (2 GB, 4 GB, etc) and eMMC storage tiers.
• Customizable OEM/ODM services: branding, packaging, firmware, and remote controls.
• Commercial-grade builds suitable for hospitality, education, IPTV, and streaming use cases.
• Latest OS support (Android 11, Android 14) for longevity.

Let’s dive into our key product lines for 2025: the Amlogic series, Allwinner series, CooTV series, and the Google-certified KICKPI line.

Amlogic Series – Premium AV1 Supported Performance

One of the key differentiators of the Amlogic-based Tanix boxes is full support for the AV1 codec—a major future-proofing feature given the shift to streaming 4K/8K and high efficiency video. Other chipsets, such as Allwinner or Rockchip, do not support AV1 decoding.

Here are our recommended Amlogic models:

Allwinner Series – Cost-Effective Streaming Solutions

Key Features & Market Trends to Leverage

AV1 Codec Support

As streaming platforms increasingly adopt the AV1 codec for higher efficiency and future-proofing, devices with AV1 support gain a competitive edge. All of our Amlogic-based Tanix models listed above support AV1 decoding.

4K / 8K Streaming & Smart Home Integration

Market analyses show that higher resolution streaming (4K, 8K) plus integration into smart-home/IoT ecosystems are key growth drivers.

For buyers, this means ensuring your TV boxes are equipped with hardware and firmware capable of keeping pace.

Enterprise & Commercial Deployment Ready

While consumer markets drive volume, the commercial segment (hospitality, education, IoT, enterprise) is growing steadily. Devices deployed in hotels, schools, or public venues require stability, long-term firmware support, and customization flexibility.

Conclusion

In 2025, selecting the right Android TV box supplier means aligning hardware capability, codec support, commercial-ready firmware, and flexible OEM/ODM services.
