Because A. He cater for NA audience china brands sometimes very hard to get or slow from AliExpress. And B. Have you seen the price of chromecast or fire TV stick? It's literally cheaper than Xiaomi so what's the point?

chromecast have limited port access compare to stb. also since it is dongle like device, it cant dissipate heat quickly enough, hence it need to use low power soc or performance throttling alot.
also mi box remote is kinda decent, this chromecast one, im not sure.

I think we should more worry on using our hp and asking what is the wifi hotspot password on random restaurants or places. They also mostly now come with high resolution CCTV too..

Then we also live in compact condo with all wifi signal we can detect... some even doesn't take an effort to setup the password ... lol!

Those shit boxes sold all over Amazon, it's the legit Xiaomi ones that are not officially sold, only on AliExpress. How to recommend when not officially sold or more expensive than the more established brands?
