Mi TV users can see Collections right below Recently Added section. The feature has options like Binge List, Movie Crushes and Retro Movies, among others.
Xiaomi has not yet made it clear if Collections will be offered on all Mi TV devices with PatchWall or is being provided to just those TVs which have PatchWall 3.0.
The Chinese company recently introduced Sony LIV and Kids Mode to its PatchWall interface. Kids mode offers features like parental lock, safe universal search, free educational content, smart curation and pop-out banner collection.
