An annoying problem with this dongle is that it is not that fast and frequently stutters.

Xiaomi has been selling a cheaper version of the TV Stick in the Netherlands for some time, which streams in maximum full-HD (1080p). Therefore, make sure you have two AAA batteries before setting up the Xiaomi stick. You do get it with the HDMI dongles from Google and Amazon. In addition, we would have liked Xiaomi to supply batteries for the remote control, because they are not included in the box. We also think the remote is a bit too big. It’s not a disaster, but we had to get used to it. For example, the back button is in the middle and the home button (the circle) on the right, while you would expect the home button in the middle. The TV Stick 4K has a remote control and although it fits nicely in the hand, the button layout is not entirely logical. With a smartphone, which you charge (almost) daily, this is of course very different. That’s a bit of a shame, but because you probably only have to plug the cable into the dongle once, we don’t think it’s much of a problem. You plug it into an HDMI connection on your television, connect the power cable and you can immediately start setting it up.Ī striking detail is that the Xiaomi TV Stick 4K still has an old-fashioned micro-USB connection. The device looks like a large USB stick and is somewhat more elongated. The device itselfĪs with the review of the Amazon Fire TV Stick, we start with the appearance of the Xiaomi stick. This makes it an interesting alternative, especially because the Xiaomi TV Stick 4K is also very pleasant to use. The device is a competitor for the Chromecast with Google TV and costs (at the moment) about the same. The Xiaomi TV Stick 4K has recently been available in the Netherlands and we have been using it for a few weeks now. The necessary manufacturers have their own HDMI dongles, with which you can make your TV (or another screen) a lot smarter in one go.
If you are looking for a handy media player for your television, you are no longer dependent on the Chromecast. We have tested the device, so quickly check this review. The Xiaomi TV Stick 4K is a good media player and a great alternative to the Chromecast with Google TV.
