Xiaomi Mi Box S aka Mi Box 4K is one of
the well-known products in the streaming category. It debuted in the US almost
two years back. Hence, a successor was expected but instead, the company has
plans to launch Mi TV Stick, a competitor to Amazon Firestick. This device has
leaked multiple times and now it also receives EEC certification. The Mi TV
Stick first leaked in mid-April along with other upcoming ecosystem products. A
month later, its listing with complete specifications was spotted on Gearbest,
a Chinese online retailer.
Followed by that. It was officially teased
by Xiaomi during the Redmi Note 9 launch in Germany in late May. Now, the
device visits EEC (European Economic Community) for certification purpose,
which reveals its model number to be MDZ-24-AA. Since the Mi TV stick has now
received certification in Europe, we can expect it to launch in this region
first. We also believe that it will make it to other regions after its initial
debut.
According to the product listing leak, the
Mi TV Stick will be powered by Amlogic S905 quad-core processor paired with 2GB
RAM and 8GB internal storage. It will run Android TV and will have features
like 4K HDR, DTS-HD, Dolby Audio, dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 4.2, HDMI 2.0, USB
Type-C, and Bluetooth voice remote with dedicated buttons for Netflix and Prime
Video.
