Mi Box 4k (not S) or Firetv stick 4k

by doma_kun

For some confirmation i am taking about mi box 4k not mi box S

Due to current sale both mi box and firestick are available in same price i.e. 2999 inr (37$) while firestick hav obvious advantage of dolby vision and audio i find its ui awful+ i don't hv a tv that supports that (nor i hv a 4k one sry this might seem dumb but lower sticks seem to be laggier with little cost difference)

What i mainly want is perfomance i want to know which stick/box will run better in long run with some side loaded apps with little to no lag

Mi box hv a clean and good ui with privilege of a usb port and Jack however that's no excuse for perfomance

If they don't differ much in perfomance I'd go with mi box else firestick

What's your advice

And yes this is a repost last one was ignored

Mi box S and MI box 4k is exactly the same

MI box usually comes with bugs in updates but I guess most critical bugs are resolved now. It has USB slot which needs additional adapter in Fire stick.

Performance should be similar. Maybe fire stick 4k little better in performance due to additional RAM

IMO Mi box

Mi for me. I have both.

Fire Tv OS is getting worse. Too many restrictions. No Google play services natively.

Personally I'm liking the Onn 4K box from walmart but between those 2, the MiBox 100%.

Fire sticks are trash.

Mi Box S & Mi Box 4K are the same device. Mi Box S was launched in India as Mi Box 4K.

Are you sure you wanna buy a 4-year-old device (Mi Box 4K) now?

Better to save now & buy a more recent device later.

Buy Fire TV has not so good UI (contains Ads - checkout on YouTube if you like the interface)

  • if you have Amazon echo device, can use voice commands.

MiBox 4k - No Dolby Atmos support

+If you have Xiaomi Cameras: Can stream Xiaomi security cameras on both via Alexa & Google. MiHome app not available on FireTV (not sure about MiBox 4k)
