Xiaomi is gearing up for the launch of its latest lineup of smart TVs from its sub brand Redmi in India. The latter has launched smart TVs in the region back in the past, and now, it seeks diversify its offerings with the announcement set for September 22.
The Chinese tech giant has just shared the news and even put up a new page on its official website in India. In this page, a countdown to September 22 can be seen along with the title Redmi Smart TV series, which is an ‘All Round Smart Entertainment’ system. Notably, the online announcement states that the launch will begin at noon 12 pm and even revealed the sizes of the upcoming TVs. Redmi will launch the Smart TV series in a 32 inch and 43 inch form factor.
Back in May, we had reported on the company’s Redmi Smart TV being spotted on the Google Play Console listing, which revealed certain details regarding the new product. This included its codename ‘Tarzen’ and its model number MiTV-MOOQ3. As per this listing, the Smart TV series will offer Full HD resolution and will be powered by a MediaTek T31 chipset with 2GB of RAM. It will also run on the Android 10 operating system, which is the latest for TVs.
Since Redmi is known to be Xiaomi’s budget subsidiary, these specs and sizes indicate that it might be launched at a competitive price point. This is further backed by the Redmi Smart TV X series, which was launched in three different sizes namely, 50 inch, 55 inch, and 65 inch that started from 32,999 INR (roughly 455 US Dollars). In other words, the new lineup might be more affordable than the X lineup. Keep in mind that this is still speculation at the moment, so take it with a pinch of salt and stay tuned as we will be covering the launch event later this month.
