Chinese tech giant Huawei has officially unveiled the Honor Vision Smart TV for the Indian market at the Indian Mobile Congress which began today in New Delhi. Recall that the Honor Vision was first launched in August in China as the first commercially available product to run on Huawei’s custom HarmonyOS.

The Honor Vision made its debut in China alongside the Honor Vision Pro which had a pop-up camera. Huawei only showcased the Honor Vision but also detailed the pop-up camera setup on the Pro model which is an indication that the Vision Pro may also get released in India. The company also disclosed that the device will be released in India in the first quarter of 2020. The pricing details were not revealed but we don’t expect it to be significantly different from the price in China where it is on offer for 3,799 yuan (around $537, Rs. 38,200) while the Vision Pro goes for 4,799 yuan (~$679, Rs. 48,200).

Both models come with 55-inch 4K HDR displays with NTSC 85% wide color gamut, 360nit brightness and wide viewing angles. The display is contained within a three-sided, borderless frame, with an impressive screen-to-body ratio of 94 percent. The display also has German TUV Rheinland low blue eye protection.

In terms of specs, it is powered by the new Honghu 818 SoC which features a quad-core CPU, with two A53 cores and two A73 cores, paired with a 4-core Mali-G51 GPU. It supports 8K@30fps and 4K@120fps super video decoding. In graphics decoding, the chip supports 64MP image decoding ahead of time.

The Huawei Vision has eight speakers, one subwoofer and one refractor to make for an intelligent sound system that provides a professional 5.1 sound effect. It also has intelligent sound field modelling and beam control.

It comes with several useful features such as One-Hop projection which allows users to project what is on their phone on to the display with a single touch to the remote. There is also Intelligent Live Control which allows you to control the device with your smartphone while Huawei Share allows you to easily send files like pictures to the TV.

The touch remote controller connects via Bluetooth 5.0 and comes with USB Type-C port at the bottom for charging. The company says that you only have to charge it once in 3 months. The remote has a power button, a smart key, and volume control keys. There’s a circular touchpad at the top and a dedicated microphone button flanked on the left by the Return key and on the right by the Menu key. The smart TV runs on HarmonyOS but we are not sure the features that’ll be available in the Indian market.
