[Help] Info regarding Mi Box

by hbafuzz

I am thinking of buying the mi-box, however I am completely new to the android tv game, I would really appreciate if someone could answer these questions for me:

  1. I have read that the mi-box has hdmi 2.0 port, would I be able to attach a non 2.0 hdmi based lcd with it?
  2. Is it possible to download and install the mobile based apps on it from the play store? Just like we can install iphone apps on the ipad ? Or it only allows to download android tv apps?

Any tv with an hdmi port will work with this box.

Any app can be sideloaded. Functionality may vary.

I have a 15 Mbps download and 1 Mbps upload, wireless N. Will the mibox lag if it's 15 freet away from my router (wirelessly)

Ok thanks for the help. Hopefully Ill get the mi box in February. I think the app might work. Otherwise I can always try Kodi
