As the number of connected devices is increasing rapidly, the wifi routers need to update as well. I been so far using the Apple Airport Extreme, but have had issues with heat and performance. I was looking for an alternative and came across super affordable Xiaomi Mi Wifi 3 and the latest Google Wifi systems.

u is the mask?
hello, do you think it s worth getting the xiaomi router for a kinda lousy connection of 10mbs download and 1mbs upload. the one i have covers most of the house but the internet can get very slow with more than one users on it. would some better distribution help or there is not much to distribute anyway?
Ну у тебя и произношение, у меня аж уши заболели. Ты случайно не родственник Мутко?
he looks like ted cruze
Nice comparison …thnks for sharing
My Router: Gigabit Tp-link Archer C9
The link on Gearbest for the Xiaomi only give an option for EU plug. Does it come with adapters for the U.S? I can’t find any info. Thanks to anyone who can help.
the best review on youtube.. yu covered everything i need to know
Doesn’t make sense to show 3 bars in different colors.. but only that Xiaomi represents the blue color.
You should also show Apple and Google at the beginning of showing the bar charts.
With the apple router can you hook up android devices
In your final summary, you neglected to point out that the Google device lacks a USB connection. Though the Google device’s performance was the best, the lack of USB is a deal breaker for someone like me who connects their printer to the router via USB. Overall, your video is excellent.
actually apple does have mesh networking. you can pair more apple routers to each other to achieve the same as google
You can download an app called WiFi analyzer on Android. It gives actual measurements of signal strength and it even recommends which channels to choose.
Great video I’m buying google WiFi
Kinda useful review but it is basically an apple versus oranges review. The price and features are far too different from each other.
Brilliant!
Mi router 3G is better than Mi router 3
google wifi, are you insane? now overtime you piss is recorded and sold as data.
Great video! Agree Google WIFI is a great choice. Use it in two houses without issue.
Wonderful, very useful tests.
One thing that Mac allow is the Back To My Mac. Airport Extreme does offer a type of Meshed network as well.
I’ve tested the Xiaomi Router for the past 3 weeks and I don’t recommend it. At least this version. I used it to extend my wifi range. I shut off the wifi on the original ISP router, connected the RJ-45 port to the Wan port of the Xiaomi Router and allowed the devices to connect to the later (which causes a decrease in internet speed overall, because the router is feeding the connection to another device). The range is incredible. But the hardware specs aren’t enough to keep up with the devices. The Router’s CPU gets up to 80% a lot of time just to keep up with all the connections (and true, there’s at least 7 devices with wifi in my house at any given time). 80% CPU usage makes all the connections unbearably slow. Video streaming becomes painfully slow, even uploading files becomes horrible. I’ve tried tweaking the settings multiple times and the device simply doesn’t have the hardware necessary for everyday use with various devices. It might work better as a repeater but those have proved themselves to be worthless in my house. Fortunately newer versions of the Xiaomi Router 3 with better specs are now available or save up some money for Xiaomi’s other premium models, which are still more affordable than the higher end router.
Great breakdown! Really appreciated the insight. Well done!
Whats the name of your macbook and model number ?
pls review mi 3g router..
let me ask u a question. which is better in ur mind. google wifi or portal routers as mesh system
Very helpful video, thanks for your work
This is a horrible review. you don’t understand the technologies or the number of antennas each device has… Comparing the internet speed between wireless AC routers. You understand they all saturate your internet connection so the differences will be negligable….
dude, can you compare Netgear Nighthawk to these?
Hey man i just want to congratulate you this is one of the best reviews i’ve ever seen. Flawless! Thanks for such review!
i like your review
ur the best
So which one should i get the apple or google?
creatly
wow
Good work on a decent review.
You’re comparing a unsupported device from 2013 with one from 2017 and expect the performance to be similar. Might as well compare the Google Pixel 2 vs the iPhone 4s and see which one is faster and has more features.
The government should test your home for radiation.
Awesome job
How many mbps up/down do your ISP provide you?
lol why are u using xiaomi router’s 2.4ghz wireless n instead of 5ghz wireless ac to compare against ac routers? is this a joke or?
How did u even do the “bandwidth” tests? from what i can see all u are doing is looking at the fake connection speeds from the devices. are u even using a program like iperf for real world testing?
Thanks so much for your elaborate review here. It’s very helpful.
Thanks for this “range” test!
Best router is TP-Link Archer C7 with OpenWRT so you can fix the channel width (its lovked to 80, but you really want 20)
Thanks for the detailed review! I live in a small apartment (consisting of one room), so I guess I’ll be going for Xiaomi router, since I won’t be experiencing inconveniences with the connection, and I’ll be saving a ton of money.
Excellent review and best comparison, bang on target! Well Done.
Excellent job! Very helpful. Thank you.
No Asus, Cisco?
