The minute I heard you say you’re South African, I went and hit the subscribe button with excitement. So happy to have a South African tech reviewer 🎉❤

Dude, you have no idea how happy I am that you are South African. Mooi man.

Awesome to see a South African tech Youtuber. Subbed

[mogasesegopotje]

I like the fact that you are a South African. You have my subscription

Good review. My parents have been using the 1st gen for years and I have a Xiaomi projector with built in Mi box. Was looking at what is new in 2nd gen.

Did you test plex? Does it play 4k HDR videos with this box in original quality?
I'm pissed that Sony TV XJ90 can in fact play in its internal app 4k HDR videos but the audio is 5.1 it can't do 7.1 (despite being connected via eARC)... It can though do a passthrough but not play it itself. -.-

To clarify, the shows and movies in the home page are all free and don't need subscriptions?

[MartinTheWhinja]

There we go I know what I'm getting myself for Christmas 😱

[owoichoigoji]

Between this and the Mecool KM2 Plus which is better or which do you recommend?

[conpatrikopoulos]

Nice box. Any idea how to get chrome or Google? I've tried everything I can think of.

[PawsPlay-dg]

Is Netflix and Amazon prime subscriptions free with the device?

[rickspencer]

I got one today to replace my 'original' Mi-Box.

Thanks for the excellent video!

Mine is lagging as hell. Is there a way to fix that? First 10 minutes is great, and then it started to lag. Sound are late 3-4 second

[brianlarter]

Thanks for the great review. I have just ordered my unit and will have it tomorrow. Can't wait.

@WootDini, stupid question here, my son has an old 32", it has no usb ports. Does the device connect to tv using HDMI -> HDMI or USB ->HDMI. Thanks in advance

[frankaldridge]

Thank you for the review. Can you tell me: 1. How to re-arrange Apps so that I don't have to go to ...more... to find my installed App and 2. How to remove Apps that I have no interest in?
Thank you in advance.

Kan ik de "XIAOMI" ook meenemen naar Vietnam en daar op een Samsung TV aansluiten?

[lukaszglinicki]

Hello, is it possible to change the playback speed of a YouTube video on this device?

[Tbooysquare]

Can I install application outside of playstore?
