Xiaomi TV Stick 4K (2nd Gen) is the compact mainstream option. It brings Google TV, 4K, Wi‑Fi 6 and Dolby Vision into a very small body.
It suits secondary televisions, travel and simpler setups with a relatively small app library.
The 8GB storage ceiling is the major long-term limitation, and Xiaomi says expanded storage is not supported.
These are the closest alternatives in the current ViewHarbour shortlist.
