Xiaomi TV Stick 4K specifications, features

It includes buttons for Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, and YouTube. The device offers support for Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision. The device also offers built-in Chromecast support.
Released globally in December 2021, the Xiaomi TV Stick 4K, is powered by a quad-core Cortex-A35 processor, a Mali-G31 MP2 GPU, and 2GB of RAM. The stick has an internal storage capacity of 8GB. The streaming stick runs Android TV 11 with the company’s proprietary PatchWall interface on top.
Xiaomi’s smart televisions use the PatchWall customisation layer, which offers direct access to various sections of the television from the same location. The software gives users direct access to HDMI inputs as well as access to commonly used TV apps. In essence, it is in charge of centralising various television functions in a single location.
On the connectivity front, the Xiaomi TV Stick 4K offers dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0 support and the device can be connected to a TV via an HDMI 2.1 port.
Xiaomi TV Stick 4K comes with a remote, a power adapter, and an HDMI extender cable in the box. The streaming device from Xiaomi weighs 42.8g and measures 106.8×29.4×15.4mm.
