Worth knowing before you buy: the Xiaomi TV Stick 4K 2nd Gen ships with 8GB of internal storage, which is below the 16GB Google itself recommends as a minimum for a smooth Google TV experience. In practice this means being selective about how many apps you install rather than downloading everything available.

Xiaomi TV Stick 4K 2nd Gen: The 8GB Storage Reality
Google TV itself recommends 16GB as a comfortable minimum, and this stick ships with half that. For most people running a handful of core streaming apps — Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video — 8GB is manageable, but installing a large library of apps and games will fill it noticeably faster than on Xiaomi’s own TV Box S, which carries 32GB.
This is a genuine trade-off for the compact stick form factor, not a manufacturing defect, and worth factoring in if you plan to install more than a few apps.
Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos in a Stick
Despite the small size, the stick decodes 4K video with Dolby Vision HDR and outputs Dolby Atmos audio to a compatible soundbar or AV receiver — premium picture and sound formats that many similarly priced streaming sticks skip entirely.
Full specifications are on the official Xiaomi TV Stick 4K 2nd Gen specifications.

Xiaomi TV Stick 4K 2nd Gen: Wi-Fi 6 Connectivity
Dual-band Wi-Fi 6 support delivers a more stable connection on a compatible router than the older Wi-Fi standards found on cheaper streaming sticks, particularly useful in a household with several devices competing for bandwidth during peak evening streaming hours.
Who This Suits
This suits anyone wanting a compact, genuinely portable streaming solution for a second TV or a hotel-room setup, running a moderate number of apps rather than an extensive library. For a primary living room TV with heavier app usage, the TV Box S with its 32GB and HDMI 2.1 port is the better fit.
