Chinese tech giant, Xiaomi has launched the Mi TV Stick with 1080p Streaming and Built-in Chromecast. It can be considered as an affordable alternative to the Mi Box 4K, and it will go on sale from Au....

Though Xiaomi has not updated the Mi smart TV line-up for a long time, it has come up with a new TV stick to convert your regular TV into a smart TV. The Mi TV Stick is quite similar to any other streaming dongle in terms of its looks. The body has a dual-tone black finish and the front holds an HDMI 2.0 connector.

One of the biggest differences between the previously-launched Mi Box 4K and the Mi TV Stick is the streaming quality. The Mi TV stick offers 1080p streaming instead of 4K streaming supported by the Mi Box 4K. The device can stream at up to 1,920x1,080 pixels at 60fps.

In addition, one can use the pre-installed Play Store application to download more video streaming applications like Disney+ Hotstar, and Spotify. The Mi TV Stick is accompanied with a remote that comes with Google Assistant voice controls and Chromecast for supported devices.
