  • I got a Xiaomi TV Box S 2nd Gen.
    They advertise 4K, Dolby Atmos, Dolby Vision HDR10+, something some other but honestly I couldn’t tell you much about any of that. My TV is old as heeeelllll, 1080p is plenty for me.
    Where I live it was comparable in price to a Fire Stick, and since I heard Amazon doesn’t let you switch the stock launcher (and broke all previous workarounds) I choose this instead.
    It let me install Projectivity Launcher and disable the stock Google TV Launcher with no fuss.

    Performance is not bad. Don’t expect to be flying in and out of apps at the speed of light but I can jump between home, YouTube, Twitch and Jellyfin without much delay. Things might stutter while they load but nothing too bad.
    All in all, pretty competent little box, I’m happy with it.
