Edision OS Mio 4K S2X versus Edision OS Mini 4K S2X. Functionally, what's the difference? The Mini is being sold in Canada.
 
The first link above discusses the old Mini. There is a new Mini with specs that seem a lot like a Mio.

ADDED: Looking more closely, the new Mini appears to be a Mio+ except with only 1 tuner. So it is "better" than a Mio. It seems to be priced around US$150 or lower in the overseas market.

The new Mini specs are here:
Edision Mini UHD 4K S2X w/H265 & HEVC

From Edision:
Edision Mini UHD 4K S2X w/H265 & HEVC

2023 "Holdbacks" on the mio4k+. Old chipset and soldered in tuners.
Not JFK 'tuners'....or 'cuber' for that fact.
No pass-thru ports either. So many people ask about splitting signal for additional receivers, yet so many chinabox receivers have them.
What's the deal? Pluggable tuners let you tailor a receiver. Or as a member on EB's site proved to me. His VU+ receiver blew his mio4k+ away in the water snagging weaker transponders. And he had his choice of...yup....tuners.
Other stuff too. Multistream...if it will matter to us on this side of the pond.
4:2:2. Either in the internal electronics or perhaps a stream-relay scheme.
It's said that Broadcom is ditching the FTA receiver chip market. I don't know.
So what's the sense of getting blinged by a 'new' receiver with 8 year old electronics in a recycled Hyundai case?
Grumbling? Psst...read my fine print!
