Yup, one of the reliable boxes

UPDATE

So apparently GB only willing to compensate USD25 for the said box. Btw decided to open up the box to look at the internals


Attached thumbnail(s)

Yeah, I bought one but for a pal.. Only had it a few days to test it out and setup for him. Been running smoothly for him I guess. Seeing as I haven't had any unusual issues raised besides how to update dying ehem apps.. Normal. But then, his is a more simple usage. So I left it stock and thinking back, that ROM would be buggy as per jhlou's post below..

Fixed and correct.

I strongly doubt it. If not even any official mentions of Widevine levels and Netflix support. Suggests that they are being more careful with their advertising compared to previous release.. Where they advertised heavy about it being an official Netflix device. Turned out to be some hackery? instead..

Can't argue with that. But if they take too long being too reliable versus giving the people what they want.. Even hard-core fans like myself, will be forced to switch brands when the time comes..

Limiting.. Always go HDMI if possible.

Kek..

The internals look cleaner and organized than expected..

😇

Really? Thought of finding that reset button but to no avail

Am trying to get an exchange instead of compensation

LOL! I'm not into this tinkering... You wanna give it a try? I'll be happy to sent to you

which version is this? if i cant find firmware also no point to try.

Greetings Folks,
Anyone here using xiaomi mi tv box 3? How's your setup like especially using USB extensions for Ethernet and Storage e.g. like the "Ugreen" device.
Plan to get the latest box so need your input whether this USB stuff really reliable.

Thanks for your input folks.

cheers!

Or you can just buy another device that has actual gigabit ethernet and USB ports.. Any particular reasons why the MiTV box 3?

I'm just interested in "Unrooted" box so hassle free doing extra work on "rooted" box

any tvbox can support for Astro GO and Unifi TV?

Minix boxes. I'm using Minix U1.

ok noted.....how about MINIX NEO A3 AIR MOUSE worth ?

I have the A2 Lite Air mouse but battery drained quite badly from my end, so I ended up not using it now.

There are plenty other confirmed unrooted devices WITH dedicated ethernet and USB ports. I suggest you look at those instead.

Worth and recommended to use with Minix devices. Though works for others too. Except Minix device dedicated buttons won't work as intended. Been using the Neo A2 Lite airmouse with rechargeable Eneloop batteries. Almost daily usage.. Lasts months easy. I don't expect the upgraded Neo A3 Airmouse to perform any less.. Barring it a lemon unit of course.

I recently managed to grab 2xAAA Eneloop batteries from Lazada flash sales. Maybe I should try using back the A2 Lite but I'm already used to the wireless keyboard.
