Media Sever DS218+ vs DS220+?

#1
I am looking to buy a NAS to play movies on my TV and phone. Currently I have an Intel NUC hooked up to the TV - which is 1080p (looking to go 4k later this year) - via HDMI. Movies are stored locally on NUC.
I was hoping the DS220+ would improve the decode/encode capabilities of the line up, but it seems the capabilities have decreased! Why is this? I'm baffled!
I would like the ability to stream movies on the go to my GOOGLE Pixel 4XL, in addition to the TV. I'm not as worried about the TV as I can have the NUC decode the 4k files (that is correct, isn't it?), so the NAS won't be asked to do that work. But with streaming to the phone it likely will. Should I go for the DS218+?
