If you’re looking for a regular receiver in Jordan that combines a satellite input, an internet connection and more memory than the budget tier, the Professor A2Z sits in an important middle ground between basic devices and higher-priced models. According to the updated product page at Shaikh Alkar, the device currently costs 75 JOD, is available with free delivery, and comes with 2GB RAM, built-in Wi‑Fi supporting 5G networks, an Ethernet port and 24 subscriptions, running a regular receiver operating system.
This guide doesn’t just list specs; it explains who the A2Z actually suits, what its numbers mean in daily use in a Jordanian home, and when it’s better to choose a cheaper or higher-end device instead.
Professor A2Z core specs
The specs currently published on the Professor A2Z page place it in the category of internet-connected regular receivers, not Android TV Box devices. The device has 2GB RAM, supports built-in 5G Wi‑Fi, plus an Ethernet port for a wired connection, a satellite input, up to 4K playback, H.265 compression and Bluetooth, and comes with two Bluetooth remotes.
The product page also lists 24 subscriptions, with each subscription activated separately. Since service details and durations may change over time, it’s always best to check the product page itself at the time of purchase rather than relying on an old ad image or a saved post.
Who does the Professor A2Z suit in Jordan?
The A2Z suits users who want an easy traditional receiver for the TV but don’t want to be limited to satellite channels only. 5G Wi‑Fi and Ethernet give more flexibility in homes that rely on the internet for viewing, while the satellite input remains available for those who want to combine both in one device.
It also suits those who don’t need a full Android environment or a large app store. If your main goal is watching channels and content through the receiver’s built-in functions, a regular system is usually simpler in daily use than a multi-app Android device. But if your goal is freely installing Android apps and turning the screen into a full smart platform, it’s better to compare with Android TV Box devices first rather than buying the A2Z for a task it wasn’t mainly designed for.
Is 2GB RAM enough for a regular receiver?
RAM in a regular receiver shouldn’t be compared directly with phone or Android Box memory. In the A2Z, the device runs as a regular receiver system, so the value of 2GB is understood within the nature of that system and its functions. In practice, this capacity puts it above several budget Professor models that come with half a gigabyte or 1GB, but it isn’t the only factor in performance.
When choosing, look at the full picture: system type, connection method, Ethernet, the number of available services, ease of menus and the remote. Buying a device just because its RAM number is bigger can lead to the wrong choice if the function you want is different.
Wi‑Fi 5G or Ethernet with A2Z?
The A2Z supports both, which is a practical point in Jordan because network quality inside the home varies from room to room. 5GHz Wi‑Fi is useful when the router is relatively close to the TV and you want a fast wireless connection, while Ethernet suits when you can run a network cable to the receiver and want a more stable connection less affected by walls and interference.
If the router is far away or there are several walls between it and the receiver, don’t assume 5GHz will always be best. You can read the guide on the difference between Wi‑Fi 2.4GHz and 5GHz to understand range and speed and choose the best connection for where the device sits in the house.
What sets the A2Z apart from cheaper tiers?
In the Professor devices in Jordan guide there are options starting at much lower prices. For example, budget models appear with half a gigabyte or 1GB of memory, while the A2Z comes with 2GB, Ethernet, 5G Wi‑Fi and more advertised subscriptions. So the price difference doesn’t automatically mean the A2Z is the right choice for everyone; it means you’re paying for a broader spec package.
If your use is very simple and budget is the priority, a cheaper model may be enough. But if you want a wired connection as a backup option, 2GB of memory and more services, the A2Z makes more sense. You can also check the guide to the best receiver under 50 JOD in Jordan if your budget doesn’t reach 75 JOD.
A2Z or Professor P10 Royal?
The current price of both devices is 75 JOD, but they don’t offer the same combination. The Professor guide lists the P10 Royal with 4GB RAM and 21 subscriptions, while the A2Z comes with 2GB and 24 subscriptions. Both appear as regular receivers with 5G Wi‑Fi and Ethernet.
This is a useful comparison because it shows that the buying decision shouldn’t rely on price alone. Those who prioritise a higher RAM number may lean towards the P10 Royal, while those who care about the advertised number of subscriptions may find the A2Z closer to their needs. But the number of subscriptions alone isn’t a sufficient criterion either; check the service names, their actual durations and each product page on the day of purchase.
A2Z or Professor BLACK 8?
The Professor BLACK 8 is currently offered at 65 JOD, ten dinars less than the A2Z, with 2GB RAM, 21 subscriptions, 5G Wi‑Fi and Ethernet. This makes it an important comparison for buyers who want similar connectivity specs on a lower budget.
The A2Z raises the advertised number of subscriptions to 24, while other core points such as RAM and wired and wireless connectivity are similar. If the A2Z’s extra services don’t matter to you, the price difference may be a reason to look at the BLACK 8. But if the A2Z’s specific package is what you need, paying the difference may make sense. It’s best to compare both product pages on the same day because prices, availability and offers are subject to change.
A2Z or Professor JOKER?
The JOKER currently sits in a higher tier at 90 JOD and lists 4GB RAM and 24 subscriptions, with 5G Wi‑Fi and Ethernet. So it can be seen as an option for those who want the same advertised number of subscriptions as the A2Z with more memory, at a higher price.
But if your use doesn’t benefit from the memory difference or you don’t want to raise the budget, the A2Z stays at a lower price point. The idea here isn’t that one device is better in absolute terms, but that every price increase should match a real need of yours.
Is the A2Z a substitute for an Android TV Box?
No. The A2Z is classified as a regular receiver, so it shouldn’t be bought as an Android Box. Devices like the Professor Doctor i Ai Edition and Perfect 1 Ai Pro are aimed more at those who want Google TV and Android apps, while the A2Z is aimed at those who want a traditional receiver experience with internet and satellite capabilities.
If you’re torn between the two types, read the guide Best internet receiver in Jordan: Android Box or hybrid receiver?. Deciding the type of system you need before comparing prices saves you from buying a powerful device that doesn’t suit how you use it.
Do you need very fast internet?
Viewing quality over the internet doesn’t depend on the receiver alone. Line speed, router stability, Wi‑Fi congestion, the device’s distance from the access point, the number of devices on the network and source quality all affect the experience. So if buffering appears, don’t start by replacing the receiver.
First try Ethernet if available, move the router closer, or check the difference between 2.4GHz and 5GHz, and test the network when the problem occurs. These steps help you know whether the cause is the connection, the content source or the device itself.
Points to check before buying
1. Decide the type of device you need
If you want satellite with internet services in a regular receiver interface, the A2Z is among the suitable options. If you want an app store and the Google TV experience, move to the Android category.
2. Choose the network method
Ethernet matters if the TV is near a network point. If you’ll rely on Wi‑Fi, check the router location, distance and walls instead of focusing on the word 5G alone.
3. Check the current services
Don’t rely on the number of subscriptions alone. Open the A2Z page when ordering and read the current names, durations and terms, because these details can be updated.
4. Check the price and availability on the day you order
The price checked while preparing this guide is 75 JOD, and the product shows as available with free delivery. But price and availability are changing data, so the official Professor A2Z page on the Shaikh Alkar store remains the final reference before completing the order.
Conclusion: is the Professor A2Z worth 75 JOD?
The Professor A2Z is a sensible choice for those who want a regular receiver with 2GB of memory, a satellite input, 5G Wi‑Fi, Ethernet, Bluetooth and two Bluetooth remotes, with 24 advertised subscriptions, and don’t need a full Android system. Its main strength isn’t one number, but combining connectivity specs and multiple services in a traditional receiver.
If your budget is lower, there are cheaper models worth comparing. And if you’re ready to pay exactly 75 JOD, compare the A2Z with the P10 Royal because the current price is the same but the spec mix is different. And if you want more RAM with 24 subscriptions, check the JOKER in the higher tier. This way you choose by your real use, not just by name or price.
