which reduces file size by 2 or 3
relative to H.264 for the same image quality
precisely, the image quality
it is the power of these media players
of course they are abble to playback true 4K video content
but more important, the media players include the Zappiti MagicPixel technology

with this enhancement, you can benefit from 4K even on a standard Full HD TV.
In fact, today many people own 4K TV but it is still quite expensive, especially for front projectors
This why the Zappiti Player 4K are very interesting to benefit from 4K without changing your TV
