    My neighbours (Mainland Chinese) tell me they have one of these (the white one) and they can watch all the Chinese / Taiwanese / Korean / Japanese TV series and movies for free.

    Can these units really do that> I thought these are legit and need a paid subscription.

      These are legit but just like a computer they can be "tailored" to meet the users needs. They can be used inconjunction with a paid service (e.g Netflix) or free service like YouTube or catch-up commercial TV. You can install Kodi.

      • dcep on 08/02/2018 - 15:54

        so …. can watch all the Chinese / Taiwanese / Korean / Japanese TV series and movies for free ?

        • rickb on 08/02/2018 - 18:41

          TBH I don't know because it's not the kind of content that interests me. You should Google it.

    • asa79 on 08/02/2018 - 16:12

  • CaffeinatedTech on 08/02/2018 - 16:57

    Does anyone know if you can run up openElec or libreElec on these?

    Also is the remote IR or RF?

    • asa79 on 08/02/2018 - 16:58

      Why would you want to, install the Kodi android app
      I think the remote is bluetooth

      • CaffeinatedTech on 08/02/2018 - 17:00

        I find that Kodi runs better in OpenElec than in android.

          I have nuc celeron and i5 kodi. And don’t see any issues with kodi on the Android tv for working movies, have played hevc 4K and x264 dts-HD ma and true-HD 1080p formats without an issue

    • WazzaP on 08/02/2018 - 23:27

      You can run Kodi or SPMC (SPMC is a fork of Kodi but works with the voice search, though I believe Kodi were planning to add voice at some point).

      Remote is bluetooth (and you can use an app on your phone to control it too if you want), though some people have said it comes with an IR receiver if you plan to use a harmony remote or similar (https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidTV/comments/59c64f/mi_box_ha…)

      The remote they show here is for the Chinese version of the MiBox. I messaged a few of these sellers (including the one in the link) to ask for the model number (so I could check that they were genuinely selling the international version, not the Chinese version) and all refused to give the model number, just saying to check the details/pictures on the listing. My take on this is that they're selling the Chinese version, and you will have issues.

      • manwithtwobrains on 09/02/2018 - 07:30

        Interesting, what's the difference between Chinese and International? And what are some of the issues? Do you have a link to any info or reviews?

        • WazzaP on 09/02/2018 - 18:05

          From what I understand the Chinese version doesn't run Android TV and as a result will run netflix in SD 480P only, people have reported that there is no way to load the google app store (though others have managed to, and say some sellers pre-load it) and instead there is a very poor Chinese app store with basically nothing useful to people outside of China, and even attempts to side load apps causes issues. The Chinese version also comes with a different remote which doesn't have the mic/voice search. You can change the system language to English but by every report I've read there is no way to get a Chinese version to operate the same as the international version.
          My issue with the listing is that they use pictures of the Chinese version but seem to list the specs (Android TV vs non TV, voice search etc) of the international version, but refuse to give the model number. Call me a cynic but I believe this is so they can state that they sent you what was in the ad and refuse any refunds if you don't get the correct international version. Price wise the Chinese version has always been at around the $60-$70 mark and the legit international about $20 more.

          Quite happy to be proven wrong if someone wants to order it though.

      • stumbows on 09/02/2018 - 11:25

        What's interesting though is the GearBest one doesn't come with an AU plug but the eBay listing one does.

          Can't remember if I bought my last one from GearBest or one of the other similar sites, but they pretty much all chuck in an adapter for you based on the country they deliver it to.

    In my humble opinion the SPMC app is a MUCH better fit, than Kodi, for this device.

    • asa79 on 08/02/2018 - 19:07

      Does SPMC have HD Netflix?

      • rickb on 08/02/2018 - 22:20

        Just use the native Netflix app.

        • asa79 on 08/02/2018 - 22:23

          ?

          @asa79:
          Netflix is loaded by default onto the Mi Box - he's saying use the netflix app to use netflix, but load SPMC instead of Kodi for other stuff (locally stored videos and such).

        • asa79 on 09/02/2018 - 00:41

          @WazzaP: why spmc over kodi. Not heard of it

        • rickb on 09/02/2018 - 06:51

          @asa79: SPMC is an unofficial folk of Kodi, and developed by a former member of the Kodi team. Available on Google Playstore.

          It performs better on the Xiaomi box.

        • asa79 on 09/02/2018 - 06:53

          @rickb: Ok cool, can it connect to mysql and share information with other kodi systems in the house?

        • WazzaP on 09/02/2018 - 18:10

          @asa79:
          Being a fork of Kodi it keeps most if not all of the features of kodi and builds on them (giving you things like voice search) so I'm fairly sure it will allow you to do the usual kodi file/database sharing with other kodi/spmc systems.

        • asa79 on 09/02/2018 - 20:40

          @WazzaP: will have to have a look for it

    Yeh cheapest I've seen it, if it's the same, I can't see any difference but it hasn't been posted here and I can't believe that I could find a bargain :)

  • Selenium on 08/02/2018 - 19:27

    Eh. It's been cheaper before. Even from this seller.

    Add that to already slow postage and possible further delays due to Chinese new year…

    I'll get one of these some day.

    • asa79 on 09/02/2018 - 20:41

      Where is it cheaper at moment?

  • mick1 on 08/02/2018 - 23:49

    "runs on the latest Android TV 6.0".
    Don't like to quibble (as it's still a good deal) but aren't Sony smart TVs running android TV 7.0, and Android tv 8.0 released last quarter 2017 ?
    Or does OP simply mean it's the last updated version of android 6…
    Would be great if an upgrade was available.

    • asa79 on 09/02/2018 - 20:42

      I dont think there is much in 7.0 that will stop functionality
