FULL STORY ======================================================================The Xiaomi TV Stick 4K (2nd Gen) is coming soon Faster CPU/GPU running Google TV instead of Android TV HDR10+ and DTS:X as well as Dolby Vision and Dolby
Atmos

Xiaomi's Google TV streaming stick has been updated with some significant improvements. While the underlying hardware hasn't changed dramatically
beyond a new CPU RAM and storage are the same 2GB and 8GB as before there are some key audio and video improvements.

The new Xiaomi TV Stick 4K (2nd Gen) has a new chipset built around a a quad-core Cortex-A55 CPU and Mali-G310 GPU, which Xiaomi says delivers 80% better CPU performance and a 150% boost to the graphics performance compared to the first generation of the 4K streamer.

One of the most significant changes is that Xiaomi has swapped OSes: where
the original TV Stick ran on Android TV, this one has Google TV. That means a more modern-looking, streamlined interface and better recommendations across the various streaming services you use.

The new second-generation TV Stick now supports HDR10+ as well as the
previous model's Dolby Vision. And there's been a similar audio upgrade with the addition of DTS:X support alongside the existing Dolby Atmos support.

The Wi-Fi is now Wi-Fi 6, and Bluetooth is the same 5.2 as before. And the remote has been slightly redesigned with a new button for Xiaomi's own free live TV service.

What we don't know yet is what it'll cost when it officially launches, or
when that launch will be. Android Authority has spotted it on AliExpress, where it's being offered with a claimed $86 discount that drops the price to around $49 (about 36 ex VAT).

The first generation TV Stick 4K is currently $56.99 on Amazon US and 49.99
on Amazon UK. You might also like Best Android box of 2025: Our top picks for TV, gaming, and more Best streaming service: Netflix, Apple TV Plus, and
