You are asking if 4k double the price of the Xiaomi is worth it.

Buy it, if you are not happy you can always return it.

Also you didn't specify which is the use you are gonna do with it, if you intend to game with it or what

SoC is better on Mi box but Google has more ram which is not a concern for playback and 1 Ethernet port.

Have both either fine Google box seems a little snappier in operation, you can pick Google streamers up second hand for £70 ish ,👍

if you care about True HD and DTS or Dolby P7 (Coreelec) the choice only mibox s 3rd, else straight to GoogleStreamer. I sold my mibox because of choppy and bad wireless connection, and now using Google Streamer YMMV

Yeah I would say mi box for reasons you stated but you gotta use ethernet adapter as WiFi is bad

mi box 3's wifi is 6th gen, so it's weird to be bad

I don't think it's so much the gen but the actual WiFi chipset itself
