The 3^rd-gen Xiaomi TV boxes have been very popular due to a minimalistic look, powerful hardware, innovations, a voice control, and an affordable price tag. But today the manufacturer came in with two new models that are going to beat their predecessors.

So if the Mi Box 4 comes with a white coloring, 2GB of RAM, 8GB of internal storage, and supports ports Bluetooth 4.1, DOLBY AUDIO, and DTS-HD audio dual decoding, the Mi Box 4C comes with a 1+8GB memory option, but doesn’t support Bluetooth, and comes with a DTS-HD audio support. The dimensions (95x95x16mm) are the same as the weight (145g). There are an HDMI port, two USB 2.0 ports, and an AV interface.

There are a huge number of video, audio, and image formats supported by these devices. They include RM, RMVB, FLV, MOV, AVI, MKV, TS, M2TS, MP4, 3GP, MPEG, and 3D output video; MP3, APE, Flac, AAC, Ogg audio formats; and JPG, BMP, GIF, and PNG picture browsing.

At last, the Xiaomi Mi Box 4 and 4C support the AI voice control system dubbed as the TV PathWall. It allows users to interact with the TV box via voice commands concerning the keyword/title search, apps/games launch, weather calendar, video encyclopedia, intelligent error correction, and so on.
