Is the Mi TV Box easy to use? Look at what 5 years rice noodles say!

As a rice noodle for five or six years, various products are available, and the natural TV box is also a must-buy. So about the question of whether the Xiaomi TV box is easy to use, today I will take the Xiaomi Mi Box 4 in hand as an example for everyone to answer , Compare with the flagship WE40 of Taijie home to see which TV box is better to use.

I don’t need to say much about the popularity of the Xiaomi brand. Of course, the most famous is the cost-effective mobile phone. The entry into the TV box field started in 2012. The purpose is to build a smart home TV. However, the investment in this area is not recent. Too much, but less new, slow system updates.

Taijie WEBOX is a 10-year old brand. The Taijie Video developed by Taijie has a user base of 80 million. The TV box made is also loved by old fans and enthusiasts. The sales volume has exceeded 2 million. Eleven is still the top seller of Tmall boxes.

Well, without much to say, we will enter the formal evaluation link, which is divided into four parts: hardware configuration, video experience, system optimization and appearance craftsmanship.

Hardware configuration

Mi Box 4: 2+8G, crystal morning chip, high-definition video engine and security advantages

Taijie WE40: 3+32G, Rockchip, Hynix, Toshiba and other international One-line configuration

The hardware configuration has a great influence on the fluency of the TV box, so the first part of the comparison starts here.

CPU, Xiaomi Mi Box 4 uses Jingchen chip, high-definition video engine and security, don’t worry, for Taijie WE40, it uses mid-to-high-end chip Rockchip. The main advantage is the video decoding ability. The TV box has high fluency and stable performance.

For storage and storage, Mi Box 4 is equipped with 2+8G, and Taijie WE40 TV box is equipped with 3+32G. In this regard, Taijie WE40 has more obvious advantages. Generally, you don’t have to worry about downloading a lot of software, and the running speed is still It's very fast, and it also uses internationally imported configurations, such as Hynix, Toshiba, etc., so the price is more expensive than the Mi Box 4.

video experience

Mi Box 4: 89-second title advertisement,Random ads in 15 seconds, 4K fast-forward and rewinds are stuck

Taijie WE40: Play the next episode and skip the beginning and end of the movie, watch the video without ads, realize the second part of 4K

The second part is the comparison of the video experience , It mainly compares the fluency of watching TV and how many ads are placed.

This Mi Box 4 in my house has been used for a long time, and it performed well most of the time. First of all, let’s talk about the placement of advertisements. When watching a video, an 89-second introductory advertisement will be implanted, and then a 15-second advertisement that randomly pops up when watching the video. In terms of fluency, the Mi Box 4 is still wide, and there is no problem with normal-definition video. Of course, the stuttering still exists, mainly in 4K. The situation of fast forward and backward rotation is more obvious, and the experience is not good enough.

As for the Taijie WE40 TV box, after all, the configuration is here, and the experience is one of the best in the industry. First of all, there are no ads when watching Taijie’s video. When you play the next episode, you skip the opening and the end. You don’t have to worry about jumping out of ads when watching the video, which will affect the mood of watching the video. In terms of fluency, because of the six core technologies and a number of video patents, Taijie WE40 performs very well, 4K second broadcast is not a problem, fast forward and backward will not affect smooth playback.

System optimization

Mi Box 4: 15-second boot ads, the operation is more complicated, and the response speed is fast

Taijie WE40: No boot ads, the operation is very smooth and rich in content

The third part is the system optimization In this comparison, we mainly look at the boot speed of the two TV boxes, the placement of boot ads, and the response speed.

Mi Box 4 boot ads are unavoidable, about 15 seconds, because these ads are long, so the boot speed is slowed down. In terms of system, the Mi Box 4 adopts a waterfall flow design, with a first-level and second-level menu, which is slightly complicated to operate and is not friendly to the elderly and children. The operation response speed is quite fast, and there is no delay.

The boot advertisement is not available to the Taijie WE40, and the boot is very fast, because the system is deeply optimized. In terms of system operation, Taijie WE40 is very smooth, and the response speed is very fast. In addition, its own resources are rich in content,With a lot of video resources, there is no need to worry about the problem of not watching videos anymore.

Appearance craftsmanship

Mi Box 4: Simple design, small size, and not good enough heat dissipation design

Taijie WE40: UFO shape, luxurious and textured, with a circle of cooling holes

appearance, The Mi Box 4 adopts a white and simple design, coupled with a small size, the whole box looks more versatile, and it is not conspicuous in the living room. However, because of the small size of the Mi Box 4 and no cooling holes, the high-speed operation time is long, and the number of video freezes has also increased, because the heat dissipation design is not good enough, which affects the smoothness of the video.

The appearance of Taijie WE40 is more unique. The shape of the flying saucer, coupled with the piano paint process and apple-grade workmanship, looks luxurious and textured. In terms of heat dissipation, Taijie WE40 comes with a circle of heat dissipation holes. Even if it is kept for more than ten hours, the temperature of the box does not change much. The video is still smooth and very stable. No wonder many users say that the Taijie box lasts for three to five years. not a problem.

Okay, on the question of whether the Mi TV Box is easy to use, that's it. After reading it, do you think that Mi Box 4 or Taijie WE40 is better? Although I am a rice noodle, after using WE40, it is really unaccustomed to use TV boxes of other brands. After all, there are no advertisements in the TV boxes of Taijie boxes, which is just a few blocks away from most TV boxes on the market.
