Xiaomi is currently the largest network set-top box brand with the largest sales volume and the largest market share. Xiaomi, which has always been known for its fever, has not gone to the road of high-definition players on the network set-top box, but focuses on high-performance ordinary network set-top boxes.

 

In terms of non-Blu-ray network set-top boxes, in fact, the differences between the products are very small, nothing more than the level of the processor, memory, flash memory and other configurations, which directly affects the smoothness of operation, and there is no essential difference between various manufacturers in technology, content resources, and system interface.

 

Xiaomi rarely integrates a number of mainstream copyrights including GITV Galaxy、Tencent's Cloud Audiovisual Aurora、Huashu TV、CIBN Ju Sports、Sohu's CIBN YuetingTV,Content resources far exceed other manufacturers,Save the trouble of installing third-party applications,The only thing that is criticized is that there are more advertisements in Xiaomi box,It affects the experience more。

 

In the product line,Mi box has been updated to the fourth generation,The only models currently on sale are Mi box4、Mi box4C、Mi box3Enhanced version、Mi box3s。

 

In terms of hardware,The latest Xiaomi box4Still does not use the mainstream top 8 coreCPU 2 16 scheme,The processor is only4 cores,2GB memory,Flash memory is also only8GB,But it supports4K HDR、Dolby andDTS decoding。 This configuration is more than enough for the playback of ordinary videos, and the playback of high-definition videos is only at a passing level.

 

Interestingly, the 3rd generation Xiaomi Mi Box at the same price performs better and is more cost-effective than the 4th generation. Although it is the same 2GB memory, the Xiaomi Mi Box 3s is dual-channel, while the 4th generation is single-channel, and the speed advantage is obvious. WIFI,3s supports dual band 5GHz while the 4th generation only supports single frequency 2.4GHz,Both signal strength and transmission rate dual band are significantly better,3s completely crush the 4th generation in terms of cost performance。

 

Xiaomi Mi Box 3 Enhanced Edition adds Bluetooth remote control on the basis of 3S, but it also lacks an AV interface, so it is not recommended for users who are still using old-fashioned TVs to buy.

 

Overall, the Xiaomi Mi Box 3S is better in terms of cost performance and practicality.
