An honest and good TV cool U55C evaluation

Cool TV, as the representative of the innovative and dynamic young brand of Skyworth, a traditional TV giant, has become very popular in the television market in the past two years. Looking at the domestic traditional TV manufacturers, although each has established its own Internet brand, it is not only product development and design, but also Internet marketing methods. The best thing to do is to play cool, especially with the launch of the high-end flagship product T55 last year, further consolidating the position of CoolTV's first-tier echelon in the domestic market.

Today, CoolTV, which has a good hand, is based on the characteristics of various consumer groups and has introduced a number of unique products. The Kukai U55C we are going to know today is a new product that is born out of tradition and based on the future. Without the avant-garde designs and explosions of the previous Kukai products, relying solely on the positioning of “an honest and good TV”, we believe that we can conquer a large group of consumers who are eager to chase smart TVs but lack trust in Internet brands.

Appearance and workmanship: based on tradition, solid and heavy


Cool open U55C's design does not have special highlights. No ultra-narrow frame, no metal frame, no slim body. Is a solid use of high-gloss steam film injection molding process, a molding. Simple, generous, and traditional LCD TV products are no different.



Under the television, a decorative strip made of drawing and bronzing processes plays a good role in embellishing the body. It makes the TV smart, whether it is placed on the TV cabinet or on the TV wall. On the other hand, this move should be Skyworth's most commonly used design language. Often, it is simply a decorative strip that can raise the face value of its own products to several dimensions.


Traditional black engineering plastics are used on the back, and I would like to say a fair word, compared to the fact that many manufacturers are always ready to take out the back facial value. As a part that can only eat ash every day, functionality and stability are more important. If the back of the ugly can get a higher cost performance or better performance and stability, I believe no one will hesitate for this matter.



The heat vent on the back of the U55C has been designed to be very reasonable. In densely populated areas, dense heat sinks with honeycomb structures are distributed, and the product lifetime caused by the original device heat generation will not be shortened.


Interfaces, HDMI2.0 two, one network interface, AV-in interface, one V-out interface; USB2.0, USB3.0 each one. Although sufficient, there is no SD memory card expansion slot.



Since each new Internet brand began to compete with the sound quality of the TV, I would also consciously pay attention to the sound position of the TV products. Among the products on the market today, the ideal solution is to design a special long bar sound under the TV. However, because of the cost and positioning, the Cool Open U55C did not do so, but like the predecessors, the audio was designed directly under the TV body, using the desktop to reverberate the sound of the sound.

Cool white remote control


Compared to the simple tradition of the Cool U55C console, the remote control named Cool White is a cool and cool place to start. In addition to the high value of color, it is also very enjoyable in terms of functionality and thoughtfulness.


The combination of white and green is very seductive. The thin body makes the grip feel good. The design of the battery compartment lock below makes it unnecessary to worry that the bear child will accidentally buckle the remote control battery.


It is worth noting here that there is cool white button touch design. The commonly used return key has a prominent raised feel compared to other keys. The volume plus key in the volume key also has a weak bulge design to differentiate the haptic with the volume minus key. In the process of use, the operation of each step is smoother because of the distinctive touch.


Screen imaging: extremely wide color gamut, delicate picture


Cool open U55C uses a Huaxing photoelectric 55-inch 4K screen, the relevant technical parameters will not say more. In terms of actual use, the cool open U55C this screen is satisfactory.

With a special contrast of color cards, we found that even with a dark color, this screen can display even the smallest color difference. This shows that the color gamut of the screen is extremely wide, and it is very rich when displaying rich colors. visual impact.

As for the short board, it is a bit dark when displaying high-brightness colors. Especially in the gray-to-white over-display test, although it is possible to express the difference of each gradation, it is perceived that the screen is dark when displaying white.

Hardware performance


On the hardware side, in addition to the high-performance 64-bit processor, other hardware configurations also belong to the mainstream today. What technical words that Dolby and H.265 basically consumers can remember can be found on CoolOpen U55C.


It's not very intuitive to say that the hardware is too direct, let's run a minute. Although running points are not accurate for television, they still have certain reference value. Ann Bunny's final score is more than 25,000 points, which means that running a 4K video is not a problem, but a large-scale 3D game will be harder.

System and content


With the wave of smart TVs surging, there is no easy-to-use operating system and no matter how good the hardware is. Cool open U55C equipped with the latest Cool open 5.0, specifically optimized for the 64-bit processor, making the overall operation is very smooth.



Coolopen 5.0 is a product that is very open and balanced in all aspects. This point can be seen in the cool open application market, compared to most manufacturers directly shield audio and video software, cool open to be kind. Commonly used video software can be found in the built-in market.


The built-in TV school desktop was changed and displayed in a simple and elegant manner. It was very attractive to use.


In the setting function, the cool open system has a good solution at every key point, similar to the default start-up and other items, which can help the user to find the most suitable use habits.


Double-click the start button to call out to the background, exactly the same as the IOS system. Compared to long-press home button outbound background, the execution efficiency and fault tolerance are better.


Since the application management is also very important to ensure the smoothness of the TV, one set can save a lot of trouble.


In the video content, Cooper's partner of U55C is Tencent video. Therefore, there is a very good guarantee on the absolute quantity and quality of video resources. If you want to watch Tencent video movies, the attached membership card can make you cool for a long time.

to sum up


When I first saw the U55C, I felt a bit confusing. Perhaps it was because I saw too many vendors' innovations last year. But when I faced such an honest and good product, this kind of contrast produced quite a bit of embarrassment. In the course of several days of use, I did not deliberately look for any bright spots. I just used it quietly, like facing an old friend. Similarly, the feeling that Cool U55C brings to me is more familiar and stable.

No need for avant-garde design, no need for next generation performance, the price is not considered to be lethal, but when you can not find the reason highlights, but also can not find more shortcomings. It is so peaceful and honest and there is everything that a good TV should have.
