who sells the cheapest mi box with warranty? thanks!

Globe is selling the Mi box for 3.8k with 1 yr warranty
Intogadgets is the shop that supplies Globe with Mi box they're selling them for 3.6k. The warranty is only 6 months.
But other people who bought from Intogadgets via shopee said its also for 1 year.
I spent the summer wasting
The time was passed so easily

I have both mibox and nvidia shield tv and while the latter is powerful, the former is still very well capable...yet the price difference is huge. Bought mine from globe with the 1 year warranty. I also have minix but preferred ko pa rin yung mibox.

Mukhang sulit nga 'to.  No noticeable performance difference with the new Ultimate version (3G/32G).  Only 3,635.00 in Lazada, tapos less 5% pa.

Feedback naman sa performance sir.

How does it compare with tx3?

tx3 is the same for all those china android boxes, where in official support doesn't exist. also the mi box runs the native android tv os, unlike other boxes that runs customized android os.

Thanks for that Frequency. If that's the case, no use to pay 2900 to 3500 for something which can be had much cheaper albeit different China box brand?

if you are the type that likes to tinker then yes, you can get those china android boxes. i have two of them, tx3 pro and x96 which runs pure LE/Kodi. one advantage of mi box is it can do FullHD/4K netflix, most china boxes uses a hacked netflix that can only do 480p, some up to 720p.

For those who have Netflix and prefer to stream in FULL HD/4k on big TV panels, the Mi Box is of good value.

I just flashed my MXQ Pro 4k and it now looks like a pretty solid (but low cost) Android TV box.  :)

Not bad for something which cost me just around P1,500.

I guess the most value-for-money android box is still the Mi Box, cost and quality wise.

ROM and easy to follow step-by-step instructions in the link below.  You're gonna need a male to male USB cable though.  I got mine at Lazada.

Netflix requires 25MBPS speed, Youtube lesser....
