Xiaomi has unveiled the Box 5 and Box 5 Max streaming devices in China. These compact Android-based boxes deliver AI-powered features, improved connectivity, and premium audio-visual performance. The standard model costs 299 yuan ($41), while the Max version is priced at 499 yuan ($69). Pre-orders are currently open, and the first shipments will begin on May 15.

Xiaomi Box 5 Series Specifications

The Xiaomi Box 5 features a quad-core Cortex-A55 CPU and a Mali-G310 V2 GPU, paired with 2GB RAM and 32GB internal storage. The Box 5 Max upgrades the experience with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage, allowing for better multitasking and more local content storage.

Both models support 4K resolution at up to 3840 × 2160 and come with Xiaomi's in-house AI-SR engine. This engine enhances non-4K content by sharpening textures and boosting clarity, especially for older 720p or 1080p videos.

They also support Dolby Vision and DTS:X audio formats, and can pass through 7.1.4-channel audio for immersive surround sound when connected to compatible home theater setups.

The boxes are built around a 97mm x 97.1mm chassis, just 17mm tall, and weigh under 100g, making them easy to hide behind a TV or carry while traveling.

Each model comes with dual-band Wi-Fi 6 support for stable and faster streaming, even on busy home networks. Bluetooth 5.2 enables low-latency audio streaming to wireless headphones or speakers. Physical ports include HDMI, USB 2.0, and DC power input.

Both devices run Xiaomi's HyperOS, which doubles as a smart home dashboard when used with the Mi Home app. They integrate Xiao Ai, Xiaomi's voice assistant, enabling voice commands for streaming, smart home control, or general queries.

The included remote supports NFC screen casting, users can simply tap their smartphone to the remote to cast content, skipping pairing menus or QR code scanning. Notifications and calls are hidden during casting to maintain privacy.
