The new Formuler Z12 Ultra is here, and follows the popular Z11 lineup, promising more power and features!

Be sure to bookmark this page as we will be adding links for purchase and a full detailed review soon.

The Z12 Ultra is like the improved version of the Z11 series. It has a super fast quad-core processor, 4GB of memory, and a huge 128GB internal storage to record your favorite shows, apps, and videos. It can play super clear 4K videos at 60 frames per second, so everything looks smooth and ready for the future.

With Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, your TV shows and movies will look and sound like you’re in a movie theater. The colors are brighter, the pictures are clearer, and the sound feels like it’s all around you!

Included is the new BT3 Bluetooth remote control which comes with buttons that can be customized along with many other features.

Licenses

If this follows past Formuler streaming devices it will not come with support for official Netflix application.  More than likely this is built off Android Open Source Project (AOSP) which may be a good thing due to Google aiming to start cracking down on sideloading on certified devices.

Additional information regarding this device will be released here shortly once Troy receives his shipment.

Android 12?

Some will complain that this doesn’t come with  newer version of Android, however I think that’s a good thing.  Due to all of the problems we’ve seen recently with the release of Android 14, this may be a great move on Formuler’s part.  Besides, what do you really get on streaming devices with new Android operating systems? It seems like they break more than they fix as they release new Android operating systems on these streaming devices.
