The item is very cool, it could be worse.

Some pros: The prefix itself works as stated, not the first one has already been purchased. Cons: I ordered a global version, but they sent a power supply with a Chinese plug, there was no adapter at hand, and the place where the house was installed does not imply an adapter, I had to improvise and stand in another place.

The item is very cool, it could be worse.

Has pros: The set-top box is cool, it works smartly, downloading applications without problems, connecting to a TV and Wi-Fi is also without problems, the setup is simple. Got cons: I take off two stars: 1 - this is not mi box s, but just mi box, 2 - the seller could have thought about putting the adapter on the outlet, the prefix is โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹not cheap. My husband had to solder the wires to another plug.

Nothing unusual, a normal product.

I just happened to have one like this Its pros: Everything works fine, fast and good, downloads until it's buggy Different cons: The cord that comes with the kit cannot be inserted into the markup anywhere because the protrusion is very large and it is oval, whoever does this is just awful

Don't waste your time or money.

I hate interacting with the user interface. Much less compatibility and not as smooth as Nvidia Shield and Shield Pro. I recommend you buy Nvidia, which updates its boxes frequently and is a solid product. Sorry, that's not good.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Slightly maintainable

Slow and doesn't support Hulu

Very slow and lagging compared to Fire Stick. I run the same apps on Fire Stick and Xbox One S. These two devices make this Android TV terrible. The image quality was worse than the Fire Stick, the interface was slower than both my devices. And no Hulu support for this box? So don't buy if you want to stream Hulu. Not worth $50 when you can buy a Fire Stick!

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • High price

MUCH better than the stupid ROCU!

For $50 I get amazing picture quality and a very SIMPLE menu system. Android games on this device are awesome! I hooked up an XBox controller to it and it looks like a bloody video console! I love it. Using real android tv vs fake android tv boxes is a big difference. Real authorized Android TV is amazing! I've been a ROKU user for 12 years, I'm done. I don't miss ROKU after using Mi Box S for the past 2 weeks.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • Hard to say

Simply fantastic in TV & Video

Wow what a great streamer for such a low price! The device is really small (which is an advantage), works very fast and offers Android TV 9.0 (it had version 8.0, which was updated immediately after connecting to the Internet). It's officially certified by Google, which is why there's the Play Store (for Android TV) and other Google apps. Note that other similarly priced "Android" streamers come with custom Android (for phones and tablets and aren't officially certified by Google), but this one

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other picks

not enough memory when trying to install applications

First, it's not as easy as you think. Running out of memory was constantly being reported when trying to install applications. Solution: 1. Reboot the device completely by going to Settings.2. After a hard reset, refresh your device.3. Bam you are awesome. Wasted 2 hours trying to figure out why this message keeps popping up and I finally figured it out. Well when it comes to the device it's good, fast and quite frankly there's nothing better for the price you're getting. for android tv vs 3rdโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • No automatic

Officially certified by Google

You should know the difference between Android TV Box and Android TV. This Xiaomi is an official Google certified Android TV which means you get updates and support for your apps, Chromecast works very well but on the other hand the Android TV box doesn't offer updates or support for your apps like Netflix I have bought another android tv box last year what a waste of money. I wish I knew about this sooner. I highly recommend you update to Android 9.0 before installing anything, it's theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Certified by
Cons
  • Fits

I'm not sure why the person in the review below had problems with the speed or using Hulu. You have to download Hulu like any other app and it works great. I have Firestick 4ks on each TV but Google Home System is used throughout the house. This box rocks in comparison. ZERO ads on the home screen, just a smart layout with your apps and where you are in your recent episodes (it shows your Netflix shows on the home screen). He has zero lag, zero. The Firestick would occasionally get stuck andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • This is amazing

  • Some cons

Really fast, simple yet user-friendly interface, but lacks key apps.

I really like this box so far. The fiery alternative was starting to slow me down a lot and it was driving us crazy. We wanted something with Android TV instead of a normal set top box with heavily modified base versions of Android. We have Xiaomi phones and we are very happy with them, so we decided to go one step further. We're glad we did! It's fast and very easy to use. Our only concern is the lack of Hulu and Prime Video apps. We couldn't believe it when we saw it; I assumed there would be

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
