Review on Xiaomi Mi TV Stick Global TV Adapter by Adithep Kampanat ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Never buy this product.

After 1 year and 2 months, she went into a cyclic reboot. I tried different cables and adapters, incl. original, useless. The warranty is over, the prefix is ​​thrown away . Based on the reviews, I did not expect that the interface of the set-top box would work fast enough with all the resources with 1GB of RAM. I was pleased with the remote control - small and light, works great without delay, even because of the walls. The worst thing about this set-top box is just a disgusting Wi-Fi connection. I have more than 10 Wi-Fi devices in the apartment and none of them had any problems with the signal and connection anywhere in the apartment. The same set-top box in another room behind a brick wall connected to Wi-Fi from the router, but wrote that there was no Internet (2.4 GHz) on the Wi-Fi network. Distributed from the phone nearby, connected, but the speed is simply no. He brought the smartphone closer to the console - everything flew. I connected the prefix in the same room with the router - it also worked. Conclusion - a very weak Wi-Fi transmitter, suitable only for use in the same room as the source. The second point, I didn’t want to immediately connect to the old Sony TV - the HDMI signal did not match the TV signal. I had to manually select the resolution and refresh rate of the screen on another TV, it worked the third time. This TV is problematic, I don’t argue, but another Chinese set-top box connects to it without problems and produces the desired signal automatically. USB power from another set-top box was not enough - after loading the main menu, the set-top box simply turned off, I had to connect it to a power outlet. I don’t consider this a serious drawback, because. the prefix needs 1A and this is stated. Periodically, it gets very hot, but for such a miniature device with so many functions, I think this is the norm. Because of these serious shortcomings, I consider this product absolutely unworthy of the Xiaomi brand, but there are no good analogues for this money either. You can take, but subject to the above restrictions, if you are ready for it.

Pros
  • Size, interface speed, remote control
Cons
  • Signal, speed and Wi-Fi connection, connection to old TVs, power hungry, broke after a little over a year of use
