Ahh I see. Cause I finally managed to see HDR being shown on Netflix. But got flickering. I realised my PS4 has no issues but my Xbox is flickering. So the change to HDMI 2.1 will not help I Guess

This is because MiTV is not actually HDR TV but a TV that has only HDR decoders. Some people said better to turn off the HDR function if there are colouring changes

Some bros here facing the same issue with Mi Box S (me included), should be setting issue.

Still have not had the time to figure it out yet.

Ya the alternative for 4k netflix is just plug in a firetv stick 4k via the tv onboard HDMI and USB port.

Was about usd25 during sales. Just use the xiaomi tv as cheap 4k panel

Yup, will wait for sale again. Saw one bro here got it at 19.90USD. :s12:

Have the Mi Box S for the time being.

Other than Dolby Vision, Amazon FireTV Stick 4K is no better than Mi Box S for Netflix.

In Singapore context, Mi Box S is way better than Amazon FireTV Stick 4K because of Chromecast (for Starhub Go and Toggle) and native support of SingTel Cast, SingTel TV Go and TVB Anywhere+.

But of course if you get Amazon FireTV Stick 4K at US$25 during black Friday sale, that is an excellent buy.

55 inch global edition is on flash sales this evening at lazada again. $499 before further vouchers

Thanks! I got 1 set on the Lazada Flash deal for the 55 Xiaomi inch TV at $499. Seems to be still ongoing.
Hope delivery can happen before CNY.
I was reading through and doing some research and saw that that will be a new model for these global sets series in 65 inch size with Netflix built in already. But only will be out next month. Hopefully will see it sold here.

Anyway I went for the 55 inch cos mainly for the price!! And also my sofa to TV less than 3m, not sure if 65 inch size is a good idea.

Mi home app is logged in using xiaomi account.

The xiaomi tv you got is google edition which uses Google account.

The 2 are different

So means can't be connected to Mi Home or Xiao Ai AI speaker for AI voice control?

Any bro know if the 4S version can be added to Google Home Mini for voice control (not via the Google Assistant button on the TV remote)?

Is the 4S version has also the infra red port means it can be controlled via IR blaster like Broadlink RM Pro? Noticed it has BT remote control but understand some TV/TV box may have both BT and Infra red built in.Thx.

Quality is quite good even though my attenna is just beside it...this TV is a very good buy! I am just using normal HDMI cable connected to a media box and haven't really play around with it yet.
Any Bros have advices to optimize the video quality please let me know, thanks in advance.
What would be a good sound bar that can connect to it and auto on when I turn on the TV? Don't like to have too many remote around to turn on...😁

Yes for the latest Global version with DTV built in. Still need an external antenna though which the seller gives FOC. :s12:

Xiaomi tv the digital tuner can watch local channels?
Hi winderen, yes the set can watch local TV channels after plugging in the digital TV antenna given FOC by the seller. However, I faced an issue with watching Korean dramas on Channel U (those programs with Dual Sound option) as only can watch them in Korean audio. Unable to choose and swap to Mandarin Audio until now... Guess my 2020 resolution includes learning Korean...

The TV has HDMI CEC - 1 remote can control both the TV and soundbar. As long as the soundbar supports CEC it should work.
