Wait, doesn't it have the same internals as current? What's changed?

it's perfect for IPTV apps. can't wait to get one, but I think it will be hard to get one in Canada.

Seems almost exactly the same as the first gen Xiaomi Mi Box. Quadcore, 2GB RAM, 8GB storage (really? needs to be 16GB+). Firstgen could do 4K also, but definitely struggles and lags sometimes with it (I have mine set to 1080P). I guess maybe it's a higher-end quad-core processor (first gen had a Quad-core Cortex-A53 2.0GHz, Mali 450 750MHz GPU). And slightly lower initial pricepoint.

Do we know if the Mi Box S is cheaper than the original Mi Box? The Mi Box was more expensive when it got launched, but what about now? Does anyone know what the wholesale cost is? I haven't seen this on any Chinese site yet, but I guess something will happen tomorrow

They could at least add more ram and storage. The same ole 2gb+8gb🙄

For the price, I can only assume it will do the bare minimum.

Eh.

I'm still waiting for the Jetstream 4K because of the ethernet port..

But there hasn't been any word about it since it showed up on Walmarts site unfortunately. I was hoping to hear something today.

It's the same internals in a new box with a new remote!?

Hard. Pass.

Maybe if they upgraded it to USB 3.0..
