Hi what's the difference between the two.

Edision OS mio+ PLUS 4K UHD
&
Edision OS mio 4K UHD

I don't know if I need the mio+ Plus or the other one.

the bigest and most important difference, is the tuners.

mio has
- 1 x Tuner DVB-S2Χ
- 1 x Tuner DVB-T2/C
- 4 digit led display

mio+ has
- 1 x Tuner DVB-S2Χ
- 1 x Tuner DVB-S2/T2/C
- OLED Display

Info

The new standard has many improvements compared with DVB-S2:

DVB-S2X: Simplified Features

Lower Roll-Offs (RO) – Reducing RO to 5%, 10% and 15% results in a direct gain of bandwidth.
Extension of the professional profile to very high signal to noise ratios, with gains up to 51% for links with a link margin of 22dB.
Links with very high link budget, can be setup using higher order MODCODs up to 256APSK
Increased Granularity in MODCOD – The number of MODCODs and frame size combinations has grown significantly compared to DVB-S2, bringing efficiency even closer to the theoretical Shannon limit. While DVB-S2 only had about 50 combinations of MODCOD and frame size, the new DVB-S2X supports more than 100 combinations. This increased granularity not only translates into higher efficiency and availability in CCM links, but also to a very efficient ACM mode of operations.
Completely new MODCODs were introduced that are optimized for use in linear operation, while DVB-S2 was optimized only for the saturated transponder use case which typically has non-linear characteristics.
A standard mechanism to bond (combine) multiple channels as if they were one (both MPEG TS and Data applications using GSE/GSE Lite) , virtual high throughput links to be built using existing transponders. This technology will benefit roll outs of Ultra HD content since large transport streams, benefitting video statistical multiplexing, can be transmitted over multiple transponders.

DVB History: From DVB-S to DVB-S2X
Where Will We See it First?

Applications that will adapt and quickly implement the new DVB-S2X standard include Broadcast contribution, Multi-service Exchange networks, IP Trunking and backhaul, and Government Communications amongst others. The nature of the technology behind the extensions results in instant ROI for those implementing them straight away, helping service providers becoming more profitable, efficient or simply offer more or higher quality content within the same bandwidth.
Flying High with UHD

The new standard is also targeting DTH applications, with efficiency gains to be in the order of 15% to 22%. The increased efficiency is required to create space for a flourishing HD broadcast landscape and the birth of 4k Ultra High Definition (UHD) transmissions. Combining a more efficient satellite transmission scheme with the latest video compression scheme, HEVC, and the new Ultra HD video format, will be a requirement for the satellite industry as it keeps pace with capacity hungry new consumers.

The bottom line is that having the new common standard for the industry benefits not only individual businesses, but also the entire industry, enabling economies of scale and a healthier ecosystem for every player in the value chain.

yes there are 2 satellite tuners in mio+ (and the one is combo dvbt-t2/c)

about the dvbs2x, above is full the wiki explanation...
in simple words, can receive the called "multistream" frequencies/channels (there are a few in 9E and 5W).

ps. only the one tuner is dvbsx2. the other one is dvbs2
