I have mibox and nvidia shield. Mibox a bit laggy for me. But for that price, can't really complain.

Ok theres a diff between android box runninhg android tv vs android like phone.


Mi box is android tv. Hence 2gb ram is enough. If u buy android box which telling its running android 7.0 la 8 la 9 la, thats running Android phone. Hence 2gb not enough. Lag macam tahi. Dont repeat my mistake. If want that 4gb ram atleast.

Good, i own the first version and still working great.

There is an app for directly stream yifi (BitTorrent) videos. But it's better to just download using PC and watch on the box.
