16 December 2019

Xiaomi's Global MiTV with Android TV operating  system are known to come from warehouses in Hong Kong,  Spain and Russia.   These models comes with DVB-T2 digital tuner that can be used in Singapore and many other Asian countries.  The digital tuner can also be used in Russia and also some European countries like Spain.  They are all manufactured by Xiaomi Authorised Agents in China.

The sellers in ASEAN countries like Singapore have known to get their TVs from the warehouses in Russia and Spain. Banggood who has warehouses in various parts of the World are known to get their TVs from Hong Kong.  

The Russian Global MiTVs have  model numbers ending with 5ARU;  for example,  L55M5-5ARU. The "RU" stands for Russia.   

Xiaomi exports 2 type of Global MiTVs to Spain.  One has Satellite Tuner ; the other has DVB Digital Tuner. The former are for local market and comes with Netflix and Prime video keys in the remote controller. The latter can be re-exported to other countries and they are without the 2 special keys.  Other than that, the former has model numbers ending "5ASP" where "SP" stands for Spain. The latter has V5xR in the model number where "x" representing the different sizes of the TV. 

The Indians' MiTV with Android TV operating system are on sale for quite sometime. Their TVs are only for local consumption.  Most of their newer TVs have Netflix and Prime Video buttons on the controller. 

   

The newer Global MiTVs that are from Russia has Cortex A55 chips. The chips are not only saving energy but also performing better.   The newer chips appears to have VP9 decoders that can play YouTube @ 4K video quality.  They are designed by MediaTek instead of Amlogic.
