Design and Looks
The U1, Case design is curved without sharp corners, which gives the product a cool and modern look. When we look at the bottom of the unit you will not find any ventilation holes for cooling the unit. From my testing, and playing with the unit for a few hours, the case doesn’t seem to hear very much. On the top of the unit, you will find a nice circular LED touch power button with blue status LED light that blinks during the booting process until the unit is fully operational.

The remote control that comes with U1 offers basic functions such as power, navigation keys, a special fly mouse feature for controlling cursor movement on the screen, volume, sound mute, numeric button layout, home buttons, etc. For users, the compatibility company added a special “PC” button that lets the user switch between the Remix OS environment and the standard tiles-style Android launcher.
Software & UI
The default system when the device is turned on is Remix OS. The remix is basically an advanced customized UI / launcher built on top of the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop Operating system. Remix OS that looks and feels like an Android desktop version of the Windows 10 operating system. From a user perspective, you can open and manage applications in a Windows style and work more efficiently under an Android-based multitasking environment.
