Am thinking of buying 小米电视3代 60寸电视
Asked a few shipping agent, but none give me a quote
Anyone knows what will the sea shipping cost

I also hope to get the Mi TV 3 60". But I hope that this Mi TV 2 55" will last me 10yrs. So by that time, should be Mi TV 10+ 100" liao.

I bought Mi TV 2 55 inch with soundbar and subwoofer previously and shipped to 65daigou.
The breakdown of cost as below:

Total Weight: 60.17kg (Includes Crating)
Chargeable Weight: 60.17kg
GST: S$79.52 (The Declared Value was S$1000.00)
Shipment Fee: S$121.00
Insurance Fee: S$33.09
Value Added Service Fee: S$1.00
Coupon: S$-18.15 (There was a 15% promo code by Maybank)
Delivery Fee: S$8.00
Crating: S$50.00
Total Amount: S$ 274.46

I wonder how come it added so much weight to a 20 kg to 60.17 kg.

it seems like its due to crating and his sound system. Though I'm not sure whether its necessary and worth the money.

thats right, the crating adds around 30kg to the total weight!
I think its a worthy safeguard for me.... as the size of the tv is really huge and I don't think the original box can sustain much impact.

actually if using 65daigou's buyforme, can save on the crating since insurance fee covers up to 2k for any damage whilst delivery.

i.e
Chargeable Weight: ~30kg
GST: S$79.52 (The Declared Value was S$1000.00)
Shipment on 30kg @ $1.30/500g ~S$78
Insurance Fee: S$33.09
Value Added Service Fee: S$1.00
Delivery Fee: S$8.00

Total Amount: ~ S$ 200 +/-


As compared to local reseller markup of $300-400 for more convenience & "shop warranty"

There was a post about one of the forumer took a flight back with the TV. I would like to think that is do-able but the risk of mishandling is quite high. 65daigou - buyforme may be a better choice.

Simple, if you already have the tv. Just select the video source to one of those hdmi that is not connected, or one connected but don't switch on the source, and see what happens.

 

[gnixer]

maybe can do a MO to save shipping cost?

Ik, but some tv shows black while some shows blue. My philip tv shows blue screen.

I just hope mitv shows black.
Can anyone with mitv confirms this?

IIRC ... should be black screen.

But because Mi TV 2 is Android TV, so when there is no signal, it'll switched to the Apps page.

Yah, I prefer TV to be black screen when no signal, blue screen is very glaring.

Trust me, don't bother with MO for such expensive stuffs.

 

[lawry83]

is there any particular APK to install or which known IPs we need to know of to block xiaomi MI TV OTA firmware updates?
Thanks in advance.

indeed. imagine 1 out of the 10 tv got problem, who'll kena?

Background is black, but the second the source it lost, a message will pop-up that souce is lost, then a timer apears (10 seconds) I guess. If you didn't reconnect the source, the TV will jump back to the TV-Launcher.
