Summary
Xiaomi Mi Box S is rather an evolutionary than a revolutionary successor to the highly popular Mi Box. We would like a faster SoC, more RAM and storage space but probably Xiaomi and Google (Mi Box was promoted by Google during their 2018 presentation) don’t want it to deviate from its original target group.
It is very good for streaming services and all-around performance, although it lacks some major features compared to the competition like Dolby Vision, Dolby ATMOS and auto frame rate switching. At least it gets all the basics right, has a great and snappy user interface and includes a 4K Chromecast function that costs alone usually more than its price.
It is also very affordable with price ranging from 49$ (season discounts) up to 99$ (depends from the country/region).
