Review on Xiaomi TV Stick 4K media player by Stanislaw Komorowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

The first impression is delight. I connected easily, set it up in 10 minutes, and that's because I carefully read all the messages. The picture is excellent, better than from a laptop via HDMI. I connected my accounts and everything was tightened up. I actually bought it for a child - now all the cartoons are in one place. I won’t say that everything flies right - downloading applications takes time - but there are no brakes inside the applications. Everywhere perfectly reproduces video from an abandoned place. I connected a bluetooth keyboard and mouse, but I don’t use it, because voice search works fine. More about sound. By default, the stick outputs 50% signal strength. You can change this if you do not immediately set up the remote to control the TV - then the volume changes using the stick and it can be brought to the optimal level. I don’t know how it is in the settings of the stick itself

Pros
  • picture, usability, easy connection
Cons
  • 1. I haven’t figured it out yet, but there’s something strange with the sound: in order to hear something and understand it, you have to turn up the volume very much - your head hurts frankly - otherwise it’s completely impossible to make out : set up downmix to stereo - everything got much better 2. in one apartment with a reflashed router, Xiaomi works great, in the other, with a stock Rostelecom router, it freezes every 5 seconds. this is not a problem of a set-top box and not a communication channel (a 35 Mbps channel gives), this is a problem of pairing a set-top box and a router - something needs to be adjusted there, but I have not taken it seriously yet. I will add later 3. maybe I didn’t figure it out, but so far I haven’t been able to start playback from the NAS, but I want to completely drive everything under one remote control))) but maybe she doesn’t know how to do this at all
