Just to share that my review on Mi TV Stick after using it for two weeks.
Setup/Installation - Very straightforward. Fuss free. Fumbled a bit on the HDMI-CEC option but after some trials with the TV/AVR, everything runs smoothly. Also played with Talkback option, thinking it may be helpful for the old folks who may not read every chinese characters. However, turned it off eventually. A bit too much info when i practically reads out every line you click or scroll. Tried Google Assistant (In Chinese). Nice and will teach them how to use it to search for videos in youtube. I could not get the remote to pick up "Ok Google", not sure why but it is okay. Tried a short while Chinese (HK), Cantonese. Noted that it works on mobile but on on TV. Is Chinese (Taiwan), Hokkien btw?
Navigation/Performance - Smooth. They are not going to be heavy users, only use it to watch youtube. Not into gaming or 4K contents. Installed the 4D/toto app. I could not find any other app that will interest them. : ( Hopefully Mediacorp can come up with Mewatch one day. Meanwhile, noted that their youtube channel also have some limited contents (Luo Ming Yi, Little Nyonya, etc)
Home menu - Removed/disabled the defaults - Play store (game/music), amazon prime, netflix, facebook watch, etc.
Brought up the 3 youtube channels (Recommended, Subscribed and Trending) to the homepage. It will be nice if i can also bring in "Watch later". Why? Because when i find good videos, i can save them to "Watch later" remotely (via the same google account) and they can access it easily, no need to navigate to the "Watch later" sub-sub page which they cannot locate.
Dislike - The netflix and amazon prime buttons on the remote.
Appreciate all the sharing in this thread : )
