Xiaomi TV Stick 4K officially announced with support for Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos

Xiaomi has silently launched a 4K variant of its streaming stick called the Xiaomi TV Stick 4K. To put things into perspective, the Mi TV Stick available in India is a 1080p stick and to go 4K, you will have to consider the Mi Box 4K (review). It isn’t clear whether the new Xiaomi TV Stick 4K will come to India, but considering the diverse portfolio of the Amazon Fire TV Stick, it could give Amazon’s streaming dongle a run for its money.

Xiaomi TV Stick 4K Specifications and Features

Well, experiments in flying a kidney around Baltimore in a refrigerated box have yielded positive results — which also seems promising for getting your pad thai to you in good kit. The test flights were conducted by researchers at the University of Maryland there, led by surgeon Joseph Scalea.

Once it landed in Baltimore, the team loaded it into the container and had it travel 14 ...
