Xiaomi Mi TV Box S pre-order sale!

The brand-new XIAOMI Mi Box S is here and for the launch event, there is a pre-order promotion from GearVita by using the coupon MiBoxSA you can get it for the amazing price of just $55.24 / €48.15 / £42.9! After the huge success of the Xiaomi Mi TV Box, the Chinese company decided it is time for a new and updated version also for the International market. In China we had various different versions that came out but now it is also official that the new Internation version is out and even if it is just a pre-order, it should be ready to ship in the next days! So this is the chance to get it among the first people but also with an amazingly low price.

Powered by the latest Android TV OS 8.1 Oreo, the Xiaomi Mi Box S is the perfect companion to watch your favorite Netflix, VUDU, YouTube, SlingTV, KODI, Plex shows and series.

Xiaomi Mi Box S pre-order sale!

Driven by a Cortex-A53 Quad-core 64bit CPU and a Penta-core Mali-450 is also capable of gaming. The 2GB of RAM alongside with the 8GB of internal storage may sound just enough but as Xiaomi showed us with the previous generation, it isn’t all about the specs. In fact one of the most enjoyable devices to use was it’s predecessor and that is enough for most people to know that also the new Xiaomi TV Box S will be an amazing device.

On the back of the Xiaomi Mi Box S once again we find an AV output, an HDMI 2.0a, 1 X USB 2.0 and the DC-in. It is a little disappointing this Zen approach from Xiaomi, I was expecting at least 1 USB 3.0 and finally an Ethernet port but nevertheless the recipe is already proven to be a hit. The WiFi connectivity, one of the major advantages of the previous generation is still great with Dual Band WiFi 2.4Ghz & 5GHz as well 802.11a/b/g/n/ac dfor super-fast wireless. Bluetooth is also very good with version 4.2 so you can easily connect devices, especially a gamepad if you plan gaming with it.

Overall, a great device with an amazing offer for this International launch, just $55.24 / €48.15 / £42.9!  by adding the coupon code MiBoxSA after adding the device in your cart and check-out. For more and in order to buy it visit the link: http://shrsl.com/18yja

Mecool KM9 Android TV 4GB RAM

A great, new and very exciting Android TV product from Mecool, the KM9 is out and Gearbest has it on a promotional sale! Right now and in order to celebrate the launch event is selling for just $69.99 / €61.60 / £54.73! And if you think that’s not cheap, wait to read the specs…

Powered by Android 8.1 TV OS, the Mecool KM9 comes with the latest version of Amlogic’s S905X2 64-bit CPU, a Mali-G31 MP2 GPU, 4GB of DDR4 and 32GB of internal storage. It also comes with Dual Band WiFi, Bluetooth v4.1 and of course a remote control with which you can fully control your Android TV device. Great and exciting features as we see also on the device. Finally a good looking device and with a new LED on the front that can change color depending the state and the functions. Also great to see finally a USB 3.0 on an Android TV device, which is located on the side of the device along with another USB 2.0 and an SD Card slot. On the back of the device we find a DC-in, the HDMI output, the Ethernet 100M port and an AV out.

What is missing from the Mecool KM9 is the optical output that some people really look for but my guess is that most nowdays will just use the HDMI as in other devices, like the NVidia Shield TV. Great video performance of this device thanks to the new CPU always very capable to 4K playback at 60fps, capable also of 4K UHD HDR, HEVC 10 Bit. But also for other Android applications is very capable, even gaming since the processor is good enough, although not at the NVidia Shield TV level, but also the 4GB DDR4 help a lot with multitasking and heavy apps. Supports the latest version of KODI 18 Leia and also the new feature with voice search inside KODI through the remote control. On the Google Play Store Android TV version you can find a lot of exciting titles, that said you can also sideload any “vanilla” Android application you want.

Overall a great device and an excellent opportunity for a future-proof device by Mecool. For more info and in order to buy it visit the link: https://bit.ly/2OSj7yu

The Xiaomi Mi TV Box is one of the best Android TV devices you can get right now with great quality and excellent performance. Running on Android TV OS comes with a unique, small in size design and an excellent remote control with voice control. Of course the design similarities with the Apple TV, the Amazon Fire TV and the NVIDIA Shield TV can not pass unnoticed but that is exactly the selling point of this device by Xiaomi. A direct competitor to those streaming devices, with no restrictions and with a very interesting price!1479174385641219

Spec-wise the Xiaomi Mi Android TV may not seem what you exactly expect from a top Android TV Box. Quad-core Cortex-A53 CPU clocked at 2.0Ghz, a Penta-core Mali 450 GPU, 2GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage. But everything combined together work absolutely in perfect synch. In fact it is one of the smoothest Android TV devices in the range of under $100 whether you just want to use it as a Media Center or in order to play games!

1471675166504167

The included bluetooth remote control is fantastic. It has built-in voice commands so you remote control the Xiaomi Mi Android TV just by talking to it, a feature that only some devices have like the NVIDIA Shield and the Amazon Fire TV. Also being a Bluetooth remote is also much better and more than the necessary in order to control every aspect of your device. The included AAA batteries is also something we are not used to see in most devices on the market.

Also when using KODI 18 Leia or KODI 17.6 Krypton the Xiaomi Mi Android TV performs in an exceptional way. Everything works as it should and even on 4K playback at 60 frames per second the device didn’t experience any kind of problems, just flawless playback! When playing Android games you will also enjoy your experience and since you have unlimited access to the Google’s Android TV Play Store dedicated section with tons of fantastic titles to choose from. Netflix is also fully supported meaning you will get the best possible quality up to 4K, unlike most of the other devices in the market that will go only up to SD quality 480p.

NVIDIA SHIELD Android TV “Smart Home Edition” is out

The NVIDIA SHIELD TV is now available to buy in a new bundle which delivers more on the Android TV device’s smart home capabilities. The main difference is the inclusion of a Samsung’s SmartThings Link dongle. The NVIDIA SHIELD TV Smart Home Edition is available to buy now from Amazon, and is priced at $219.99 in the US.

The SmartThings Link usb dongle for the NVIDIA SHIELD became available in late 2017, and so in reality this is not a new product. But now the bundle is listed on the official NVIDIA site allowing future owners to buy the products together instead of getting them separately. Truth be told, there doesn’t seem to be any financial incentive buying the bundle, as it’s priced exactly as the cost of the items if purchased separately. So for now this more of a convenience bundle, than anything else.

What makes SmartThings Link different is its size, as it is just a USB dongle that can be plugged into the back of the SHIELD as a usual USB dongle. Once done and connected, the SmartThings Link immediately becomes a smart hub for the home, allowing SHIELD owners the option to control and manage multiple smart devices (lights, outlets and more) from the SmartThings Link, in other words from the SHIELD Android TV. You can see a full list of all the supported products here: https://www.smartthings.com/products.

So, for who is it for then? Well this bundle is specifically designed for those people who are looking for an immediate solution for both Android TV and a Smart Home Hub. Similar to the FireTV Cube by Amazon, with more power and fully compatible with Alexa. You can also buy each piece separately. In fact, as of right now the “SHIELD TV Gaming Edition” is selling curently for $179.99  (you actually get the gamepad for FREE!). Then you can always add on the $39.99 price for the SmartThings Link, the total comes in at $219.98 – the same cost as the Smart Home Edition which does not inclue with the NVIDIA Shield TV gamepad.
