Xiaomi India has entered the premium smart TV category with the launch of Mi QLED TV 4K 55. The newly unveiled Mi TV is the company’s first QLED television for the country. Initially, it was thought to be the Mi TV 5 Pro that the brand introduced in China last year. But then, the company itself confirmed that the model launching in India will be different. Let us take a look at the specs, features, and price of this new television.
Xiaomi Mi QLED TV 4K 55 Specifications and Features
As the name suggests, the new Xiaomi television flaunts a 55-inch QLED panel with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels (4K), 100% NTSC color gamut, 95% DCI-P3 color gamut, and 96% screen-to-body ratio. The panel supports all the popular HDR standards such as Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HDR10, and HLG. But unfortunately, the display does not come with the local-dimming feature.
Further, the TV also supports RealityFlow (MEMC) and Vivid Picture Engine (proprietary display profile tweak). As an added bonus, the television comes with a metal frame, carbon fiber back, and metal stands. However, the wall mount is sold separately. The regular variant costs ₹499, whereas the swivel version is priced at ₹1,199.
