For the life of me, I don’t understand why they don’t bump up the drive capacity. You can get a new 32GB USB drive for $8, they could easily include a larger drive.
I can only compare it to devices I have reviewed previously. Based on benchmarking scores, the Xiaomi TV Box S 2nd Gen is equivalent to the Onn. Android TV 4K (2021 release) and Fire TV Stick 4K (1st Gen).
Hi. The 3,5mm headpfones jack is actually a hybrid socket for headphones, speakers and toslink digital audio cable with 3,5mm plug on one side. Regards😊
Descent bit of kit and comparable to the 4K max 2nd gen. But as soon as the Firestick device is on sale it’s a no brainer. 16g built in. BBC and ITV apps amongst other stuff. And I’m one who is falling out of love with Amazon. Good device. Must try harder. Great video Tanya thank you.
Hi @FireTVSticks, can you please confirm if the device can run files from external high capacity NTFS drives connected via USB-A? I also need to know if it supports MKV, H264, H265 etc file formats.
I have read online that NTFS is supported. In terms of video playback the Xiaomi TV Box S 2nd Gen supports most modern formats such as h.265, VP9 and AV1 codec with native 4K@60fps HDR resolution support.
Being a US customer how does the Xiaomi TV S 2nd gen compare to the Walmart’s Onn 4k pro? Since the news of Amazon Vega (the Amazon’s indigenous OS for fire tv) I am thinking to start comparing and replace my fire tv stick 4k max
The Xiaomi TV S 2nd Gen offers some advantages over Walmart's onn. 4K Pro. The Xiaomi TV S 2nd Gen comes with a higher refresh rate, better colour reproduction, and a wider range of apps and features. It also has a more modern and sleek design. However, the onn. 4K Pro may offer a more affordable option and still provide a good picture quality for its price. Consider your specific needs and budget when choosing between the two.
Both the Xiaomi TV Box S 2nd Gen and Google Chromecast 4K have their own strengths. The Xiaomi TV Box S 2nd Gen offers a more traditional set-top box experience with support for 4K HDR and a remote control. It also has a user-friendly interface and supports a wide range of apps. On the other hand, the Google Chromecast 4K is a popular choice for its simplicity and ease of use. It allows you to stream content from your smartphone or computer to your TV and supports a wide range of streaming services. Ultimately, the choice between the two depends on your specific needs and preferences. If you prefer a more traditional TV box experience with a remote control, the Xiaomi TV Box S 2nd Gen might be the better option. However, if you value the simplicity and versatility of casting content from your devices, the Google Chromecast 4K could be the right choice for you.
I bought one 3 week ago picture brilliant and sound brilliant I set mine to usa on my vpn it changes the tabs on the top left because I use tube Pluto and plex so the if set to usa you can have google tv app on the top left I find its brll
Yes, you can use Alexa with a Xiaomi TV box if you connect your Xiaomi devices to the Mi Home/Xiaomi Home app and then associate that app with the Amazon Alexa app.
I purchased one of these as I'm concerned the Amazon FireTV will end up with a new OS and prevent the use of 3rd party apps. Well all I can say is it's absolute garbage, it's way more laggy then even an early model Firestick Lite. My Firestick 4K leaves it for dead, no comparison. I was so disgusted with it I binned after 2 days.. it;s terrible!!!

Thanks for watching!
Ya a tv box with only 8gb is totally unacceptable, I can accept 16gb, even my mi tv a pro 65 is 16 gb.
Great video.
How does it compare to Walmarts Onn box or even a Mx5 Pro box running android 12?
I can only compare it to devices I have reviewed previously. Based on benchmarking scores, the Xiaomi TV Box S 2nd Gen is equivalent to the Onn. Android TV 4K (2021 release) and Fire TV Stick 4K (1st Gen).
@@FireTVSticks what about Amazon fire tv stick 4K (2nd gen) To Xiaomi box?
8gb storage still and we're in 2024...keep up the good work.
Thanks for watching

I'm glad to see they did a price drop from the original $80 down to 60

I agree. I still prefer my 4K Max 2nd-gen and Fire Cube 3rd-gen over anything else out there.
its still a no brainer to get any but firestick because of all the stuck apps that come with the system. Xiaomi

good video, loved the detailed explanations, especially the fact that i can use a usb flash as storage easily
Glad it was helpful!
Hey Tanya great video good to see you has always.
Thanks Tanya for keeping my head above water.
Currently looking at contenders (Apple TV Onn 4k pro & others) to replace my firestick 4K

I need help trying to decide between the Xiaomi Mi Box S 4K 2nd Gen and the Google Chromecast 4k Google TV.
Xiaomi Mi Bos S 2nd Gen is better, been using it for a long time and its so smooth.

just got another firestick max, this time around. but always looking for something better, thanks .
Got one really good Xiamoi box better than fire tv stick
Can i use this one on my monitor
Yes
No competition to the 4K Max second gen, given how often it's discounted.
I agree. I still prefer my 4K Max 2nd-gen and Fire Cube 3rd-gen over anything else out there.
@@FireTVSticks One of these days I may make the jump to light speed and try the Nvidia Shield but right now, I'm delighted with my Fire TV devices 👍
❤❤❤❤ I love my firestick but this box looks amazing hope you are well ❤❤❤❤

*Hi Tanya, I'm having a semi-ok day. How are things on your side* ?
All good thank you :)
Can I use Alexa with this device?
Yes, you can use Alexa with a Xiaomi TV box if you connect your Xiaomi devices to the Mi Home/Xiaomi Home app and then associate that app with the Amazon Alexa app.
@ ok, thanks for your reply. Would you have a video on that?
@ my device will not show in Bluetooth, I’m using iPhone 14
8gb is plenty if you just use it for streaming
I agree. If you're just using a few streaming apps, lots more storage is not necessary.
Tanya is my future wife. ❤️ s 😊
Thanks for watching!

This looks good Tanya but I would not buy one myself.
No, I wouldn't either, I still prefer Fire TV over anything else! :) Hope you and the family are well!
