Good time to buy one now? Looking at 32inch for the bedroom. Most likely use for youtube and maybe but not too sure yet connect to the PC also.

Will starhub set top box connect ok? Can get for $180 on qoo10, seems worth it.

Unless they have stock ready; otherwise, has to import from overseas. Taking up to 2 weeks or more is quite possible in that case.

Where do you get the Netflix Apps from? As MiTV is not certified by Netflix, only modded version or the old version can play on MiTV

This is 2019 model
Sorry i dun really get. But is this model certified by google ie with playstore youtube etc? Or just preinstalled but cannot update later?

It is the new Global MiTV imported from Hong Kong..It works just like MiBOX S. It has a Google Android TV OS and also a built-in Google Chrome unlike its other cousins sold in China and where we all got our MiTV before. It comes with English narration and can change to other languages. It can play Youtube and has playstore but many other popular programs like KODI, Amazon Prime etc, will have to be separately installed from other sources ; unlike MiBox S, this MiTV is not Netflix certified and therefore has to use modded version which will work the same. Can read some reviews here

Exactly 850x480, slightly above 720p, Not too bad as shown here

Cannot complain as it is a budget TV unless one is willing to pay for the licensing and other bells and whistles etc..Almost all the Chinese made TV are not netflix certified although they have Google Play Store. Can only play Netflix modded version although they came together with the set.

Just get a MiBox S at another $75/=, one will have the bells and whistles.

480p = 480 x 858 it is also known as SD

720p = 720 x 1280

720p has 2 times the pixels compared to 850x480

if not using netflix certified device, the most you can get is 480p.
