At the beginning of this same month we ran into news that filled us with curiosity: the unexpected sale of the Xiaomi TV Stick 4K second generationwhich appeared in Aliexpress even before its official launch. In fact, several users managed to get a unit, which allowed us to comment on some details about their characteristics.
Now, after a couple of weeks, the company has decided advertise it officiallyand we can already tell you more detail some of the improvements that, at the time, were not known, although we are not yet convinced that they are enough today.
Improvements that make the Xiaomi TV Stick 4K second generation a more complete option
About two years have passed since the Asian brand presented the first Xiaomi TV Stick 4K. That model, although economical, had certain obvious limitations, and that is where Xiaomi wanted to put the batteries with a more polished product. To start, this new stick maintains a chipset with Cortex-A55 four-nuclei CPU and a GPU ARM MALI-G310 V2. According to official data, it offers up to 80% more yield in the CPU and a spectacular 150% improvement in the GPU, something that we will undoubtedly appreciate by navigating the interface or using streaming apps.
Now, not everything is good news. Here comes one of the fallenst points: we continue with 2GB of RAM And alone 8GB of internal storage. And that, in the middle of 2025, can fall quite short. Let's not forget that applications increasingly require more resources and space, so this section could end up being a headache.
On the positive side, the new model is already compatible with Dolby Vision and HDR10+something that was not present in his predecessor. It also admits sound Dolby Atmos and DTS: X. As if that were not enough, the connectivity has been updated to Wi-Fi 6which is a point in favor of stability and network speed.
Another detail that is appreciated is that the remote control (included in the box) It incorporates Bluetooth, which is very useful, especially because these types of devices are usually placed behind the TV and out of the reach of infrared.
Currently, the second -generation Xiaomi TV 4K can be achieved in Aliexpress for about 40 eurosand it is expected that it will soon reach other stores. So you know: if you are looking to renew your old stick, stay attentive.
