We recently informed you that Xiaomi is preparing a product Xiaomi Mi TV Stick 2021, which would also handle 4K resolution after the new one. The first real photos of the product also escaped. We have now received information about the processor used and other parameters.
The more powerful Mi TV Stick gets several improvements
American certification FCC agency has already certified this device recently. At that time, however, we did not receive any information about the hardware specifications. That is now changing, and the agency just mentioned is now revealing some of the hardware. The insides will be more powerful again and the system even smoother.
The device bears the model number MDZ-27-AA. Xiaomi bet on processor cards from the same manufacturer as the previous model, namely quad - core Amlogic S905Y4 together with the graphics unit Mali G31 MP2. This hardware will allow you to play the content in 4K resolution at 60 fps.
What really captures the product and defends its title of "smart living room device" is the full range of supported codecs. These include HDR10 +, HLG, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos and DTS HD, AV1 / H.265 / VP9 P-2 / AVS2 4Kp30 and H.264. The offer is really wide.
Since the power supply from the HDMI connector is not enough for its operation, the Xiaomi Mi TV Stick 2021 will be powered by a 5-watt adapter, which will probably be included in the package. It will include an HDMI cable and an easy-to-use remote control. The controller will need two AAA batteries for its operation. We are used to all this from the previous generation.
The first generation of the popular Mi TV Stick offers 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of internal storage, but with the new version we should see a doubling of each of these memories.
The successor is also expected to use the Android TV operating system, as well as support for the popular applications Netflix, YouTube, Twitch, Prime Video, Google Assistant and many, many more.
We do not yet know the price or availability
Official launch is expected sometime later this year. Its price is not known yet, but we expect a slightly higher amount than in the case of the basic version. The main reason for the increase will be higher performance and associated support for 4K resolution.
