I'm not seeing any improvements so far. However I just had a look briefly. Wonder if it ever gets Google TV
Xiaomi to launch Mi TV Q1 75" on 23rd March - QLED, 192 Zones, 120Hz
- Thread starter aditya2603d
- Start date
Did you upgrade?
True, seems less stable. I got network issues yesterday and today cant get sound over hdmi working
I’m on v2148 (March 21 security patch). The only issue I face is ARC keeps breaking on its own. I have to change source in the avr and/or enable disable arc to get it to work again. Also security patch is very old.
this is v2148 https://mega.nz/file/aPYGXDAD#JP9fsuasoKle4heilsIBF30Ys1gMtfCKo-rMLevV1tM
turn off the tv, put the zip on a fat32 usb 2.0 drive and plug it in the white usb 2.0 port on the tv. Press center and back key. This will put the tv in recovery mode, select the zip file to flash. profit.
Here is v3270 (Oct 21 security patch). I haven't really explored in much detail but in 10 mins I can't tell any difference from v2148 (Mar 21 security patch) except the boot animation is updated.
Edit : I don't use the tv apps for anything, I use a shield pro, ARC seems to be working fine and no noticeable difference in tv UI responsiveness than the previous version.

Steps : put both files on a usb drive and plug in the top usb port > plug out the power cable > keep pressing back and select button on the remote and point to the center led> plug in the power cable > once the tv boots in recovery, select update file from udisk, then select the zip file

Just a quick one… can we use this as a dumb tv? I have fire stick and shield pro.. so never need the smart features. This might make an affordable big screen option to me.
i would recommend a fire stick 4K max or a shield (tube or pro) or APTV with this TV to anyone that can afford it. The TVs internal app and UI performance isn’t very bad but it’s isnt great either. It often hangs and video stutters on seek in plex.

The point is can we disable all smart features and use it like a basic TV. It might turn out to be faster to use.

Yes - of course. The TV will work well as a dumb screen!
Great also post about bugs as there were a lot of issues on previous updates. Don't know why they don't push any update it's almost 1.5 years now.
Well, bit odd, but seems that its just an interface update and software is still at the same version. Whats more annoying is that when I switched off the VPN the interface is old again. When I connect back to Bulgarian VPN - new interface suddenly...

Hi everyone! First post here!
Just got a q1 75" like 6 months ago, everything have been smooth, except for 2 things that honestly, i cant understand how reviewers and people here dont seem to have noticed (or might be an issue with my unit, although I highly doubt it, given it is 100% a software issue). These are the issues:
1- Adaptive LUMA is ALWAYS ON throught HDMI inputs no matter if I have it turned off. When I change to another hdmi input or to yt or the main menu of the tv and then go back to any hdmi, adaptive luma will be ON no matter what, crushing blacks. So basically, I have to constantly turn it on and off every single time I swap from hdmi's, really sick of this.
I reset the tv 3 times and the issue is there. I had hopes the last update fixed it but nope!, The issue remains there. I have no idea where to make Xiaomi to ackowledge this issue tbh.
Anyone can check this please?
2- I have an old Denon receiver, and i pass sound through optical out to it. 50% of the times, the output to the receiver seems to be way too low, like the signal is very weak. So I have to open sound settings, change from passthrough to DolbyD and then it works fine. Another very cumbersome issue.
So guys, anyone is experiencing these issues?
Thanks!

I'd say 9-10ft is good enough. You should not have to move your neck to watch the whole picture, that's about it.
SD channels will look terrible, do not waste money on this TV for SD channels. 720p onwards looks fine.

I'm using the built in apps, so have no HDMI inputs connected. Hence never faced issue #1.
Again - I'm using HDMI ARC to my Sony Home Theater - not faced issue #2 at all.
In summary - not faced either of the issues you're facing.

If anybody has latest firmware files for Mi Q1 75 (after v3270 (Oct 21 security patch)) , can you please inbox or share over here .
v3270 (Oct 21 security patch) is mostly at par if not worse than previous version. Its just boot animation upgrade and I didnot see any noticeable performance in the overall UI
