Xiaomi’s India Head Manu Jain for the first time has revealed that Xiaomi is planning to bring in Mi Box and Box TV in India. Also, he said that they don’t see India only as a mobile market and wish to bring in products in different categories.

If you are not aware, Mi Box is a small device that converts any normal TV into a Smart TV (on the lines of Chromecast) which will allow the user to do dozens of different activities. Dongles to convert normal TV sets into smarter ones are already in market and Xiaomi plans to launch their very own Mi Box in India very soon.

While Mi TV will also come to India, it will take some more time as Xiaomi is in talks with number of content providers. Xiaomi India Head himself has teased the launch of Mi Box by end of current year which will be followed by Mi TV. Executive also said that Mi TV will offer a very different TV viewing experience. It will have a mobile-OS like interface where you can do a number of activities and all will be streamed via Internet.
