Realme has an event scheduled for April 29 in India. The main star of the conference will be Realme GT Neo 3. The brand will be also unveiling multiple other products on the same stage. One of them will be Realme Smart TV X Full HD.

Realme has revealed to debut a new television in India on April 29. This product is officially called Realme Smart TV X Full HD. The company has disclosed some of its features on its official website.

According to the teaser page, the upcoming Realme-branded TV will be offered in two sizes (40-inch, 43-inch) with an FHD resolution. The panel will have support for HDR10 and HLG HDR formats.  It will also feature the brand’s ‘Chroma Boost Picture Engine’ display profile.

The television will be powered by a Mediatek SoC paired with 1GB RAM and 8GB internal storage. This chip will consist of a quad-core ARM Cortex-A55 CPU and an ARM Mali-G31 GPU. Though the brand hasn’t confirmed it yet, the TV will most likely boot Android TV.

Finally, it will arrive with Dolby Audio-supported 24W quad-speaker system and a bezel-less design featuring a thick bottom bezel compared to other sides.

As we are still days away from the launch, we are looking forward to learning more about this product through leaks and official teasers.

The post Realme Smart TV X Full HD India launch date out along with key features appeared first on Gizmochina.

Realme recently launched the Realme 9 Pro and the Realme 9 Pro Plus in India, and according to recent rumors, the company might be looking to expand its smart television portfolio in the country.

In a recent MySmartPrice report, tipster Mukul Sharma has revealed that the Chinese manufacturer has a new smart TV in the pipeline for the Indian market. While the tipster doesn’t mention any specific date, he has hinted that we can expect the new TV to launch in a couple of months i.e March-April.

The upcoming Realme smart TV will also come with a Realme Smart TV Bluetooth voice remote, which will be in black color option. Other than this, no information on the smart TV is available as of yet. But with the inclusion of Bluetooth voice remort, we can expect the smart TV to support voice assistants like Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa.

It will also be interesting to see the price point at which this upcoming TV is introduced by the company as Realme currently offers smart TVs ranging from 32-inch HD TV to 55-inch SLED 4K smart TV.

The company released the TV Neo 32” back in September 2021, which is an aggressively priced TV at Rs. 14,999 ($200). However, it lacks a lot of features that are present in other smart TVs in that segment like Android TV OS and Bluetooth connectivity. So if the upcoming smart TV is to be priced in the sub-20K segment, hopefully, the brand will include these essential features this time around.

After teasing for days, realme has officially launched the realme smart TV Neo 32” in India. It was announced alongside the realme narzo 50 series and realme Band 2. Just like we expected, this television does not run Android TV. We thought that this TV will be more affordable than the competition because of this reason. But unfortunately, that’s not the case.

realme Smart TV Neo 32” Specifications and Features

The realme Smart TV Neo 32” sports a 32-inch LED-backlit LCD panel. The resolution should be 1366 x 768 pixels (HD Ready) but realme has not mentioned it. Anyway, the brand does say that the display is TÜV Rheinland-certified for low blue light emission.

Further, the television is powered by an unknown chipset with a quad-core CPU. Unfortunately, there are no details on its RAM and storage.

On the connectivity front, the TV arrives with WiFi, 2 x HDMI, 1 x USB, Antenna, audio out (3.5mm), and Ethernet. There’s no mention of Bluetooth, and therefore, we think the television lacks it. Hence, it does not appear to have voice control as well.

 Talking about software, TV runs some other operating system other than Android TV (probably a Linux-based OS). It comes with YouTube 2021, Quick Cast (Miracast), and realme’s proprietary Chroma Boost Picture Engine color profile.

Going by the renders on the official website, the television may only support streaming platforms like Hungama Play, Eros Now, and Yupp TV. Hence, buyers will have to invest separately in a streaming device to get access to popular streaming services like Netlfix, Amazon Prime Video, and others.

Last but not least, the television uses 20W speakers with support for Dolby Audio.

realme Smart TV Neo 32” Price and Availability in India

The realme Smart TV Neo 32” is priced at ₹14,999 ($203) in India. For comparison, the newly announced Redmi Smart TV 32 with Android TV and a better set of features just costs ₹1,000 more (₹15,999). 

The first sale of the television is scheduled at 12 PM on October 3. It will be also available at a discounted price tag during the upcoming Flipkart Big Billion Days sale, which will run from October 7 to 12.

The world’s fastest-growing smartphone brand realme has scheduled a launch event for September 24 in India. The company has confirmed to announce a number of products at this conference. One of them will be realme Smart TV Neo 32”. Unlike other smart TV models from the brand, this television will not run Android TV.

When realme revealed that it will be launching the realme Smart TV Neo 32”, it also put up a teaser page on its website. The page does not mention Android TV at all.

Even after multiple teasers, there’s still no indication of Android TV. The only thing we can notice is that the television will come with ‘Youtube 2021’ built-in. We even mentioned the same in our previous article.

This clearly suggests that this particular TV will boot some other operating system. We believe it will run a Linux-based OS like cheap smart TV models from Sony.

If that’s the case, then the television may lack many features that are common among smart TVs. First and foremost, it may not have support for leading streaming platforms. The render on realme’s website only shows YouTube, Hungama Play, Eros Now, and Yupp TV.

Secondly, it may not come with a voice assistant. Although it could have Miracast, the casting experience will not be as convenient as Chromecast.

One might think it is bizarre for realme to skip Android TV. But we think the company is making a smart move. Let us explain why.

For those unaware, the price of TV panels was in rising for the past few quarters. Hence, OEMs have been hiking the price of their televisions for a while. Although the price of panels is expected to drop in Q3 2021, consumers will see the effect only by the end of this year.

Hence, the Redmi Smart TV 32 launched today costs higher at ₹15,999 than the launch price of older 32-inch TVs from Xiaomi. This is what realme is trying to avoid.

We think that the brand is offsetting the price of the panel by opting for different software. In case you do not know, OEMs have to pay license fees to use Android TV. Hence, by using some other OS, realme does not have to spend more money on software.

Also, since the brand is advertising the realme Smart TV Neo 32 as ‘Dumb TV Killer’, we can surely expect it to be cheaper than other 32-inch televisions running Android TV.

Having said that, do you still consider buying this TV if it offers great picture and sound quality for the price? The answer is yes. You can easily get access to better smart features by using any cheap Android TV streaming stick or Amazon Fire TV Stick.

At the realme narzo 30 series launch event, the brand also unveiled realme Buds Q2 and realme Smart TV Full HD 32”. The new television from the company is one of the few models in the market to offer FHD screen resolution on a 32-inch panel. Let’s take a detailed look at this TV.

realme Smart TV Full HD 32” Specifications and Features

As the name suggests, the newly announced realme Smart TV Full HD 32” sports a 32-inch LED-backlit LCD panel with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, 16.7 million colors, and an 85% NTSC color gamut. The screen has a 16:9 aspect ratio and 178° viewing angle.

The television is powered by a 64-bit MediaTek chipset consisting of a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU and ARM Mali-470 MP3 GPU. This SoC is coupled with 1GB DDR3 RAM and 8GB flash storage.

On the software front, the product runs Android TV 9.0 Pie with support for all the streaming services in India, Play Store Google Chromecast Built-in, Google Assistant via voice-enabled remote control, and realme’s proprietary Chroma Boost Picture Engine color profile.

As for connectivity, the television comes with single-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.0, 3 x HDMI (1 x ARC), 1 x AV, 1 x tuner, 2 x USB, 1 x LAN, and 1 x S/PDIF.

Last but not least, the TV features a 4-unit 24W speaker system with support for Dolby Audio.

realme Smart TV Full HD 32” Price and Availability in India

The realme Smart TV Full HD 32” is priced at ₹18,999 ($256) in India.  But for a limited time, the brand will be offering a ₹1,000 ($13) discount (Early Bird offer). The television’s first sale is scheduled for June 29 at 12 PM.

It will be available on realme.com and Flipkart. It will soon hit the partner retail stores as well.

The news arrives after the Chinese smartphone maker’s official Twitter handle that shared a share series of tweets. While the company’s CEO had recently confirmed the release of the Narzo 30 4G and Narzo 30 5G in India, it has just confirmed the launch date. Furthermore, the new smartphones will also arrive with the Smart TV 32 inch in the country, and the brand has also promised even “more surprises” at the launch conference.

The firm has yet to share any details regarding what these surprises might be as of right now. Although, it is expected that the company might also be launching its Buds Q2 truly wireless earbuds in the country on the same date. These wireless earphones are a budget offering from the brand and even features active noise cancellation as well. We had recently reported that these hearables could be launching in the region soon, so this speculation is also in line with that report.

The tablet and laptop were recently teased by the firm at its global launch event. So, we might hear more about these devices. So stay tuned for more, as we will be covering the launch even and offer updates if any notable leaks surface in the next few days.

Last week, the CEO of realme India confirmed the arrival of new realme Smart TVs in May. A few days later, the company exec now teases one of the TV models launching next month in the country.

Yesterday, Madhav Sheth, the CEO of realme India and realme Europe posted a picture on Twitter. This image shows what appears to be a presentation slide for the upcoming realme Smart TV launch event.

The particular slide in the picture posted by the brand exec confirms the launch of the company’s first 43-inch 4K TV. This television will be called realme Smart TV 4K 43”. As per the previous teaser, this TV could come in more sizes, including a 50-inch variant.

Anyway, unlike most smart TVs in the budget segment, this upcoming realme TV will have a borderless design. Going by the teaser image, this television could have no bezels on three sides.

Unfortunately, we do not have any other info on these upcoming realme smart televisions. As of now, what we can conclude is that the new 43-inch realme 4K TV will mostly not replace the existing 43-inch FHD TV.

That’s because the 43-inch model sold right now costs only ₹23,999 ($318). It is impossible for any company to release a 4K TV at this price, no thanks to the surge in TV panel prices.

Chinese handset maker realme entered the smart TV category last year. The brand currently sells three televisions in India. According to a tweet by the company’s CEO, it may launch new TV models as soon as next month.

A Twitter user inquired Madhav Sheth, CEO of realme India regarding the availability of a 50-inch smart TV. To this, the company executive simply replied, “How about next month?”

This clearly suggests that the brand will be launching new smart TV models in India. Going by the interaction, we can certainly expect a 50-inch variant. However, there could be other sizes as well.

Anyway, as of now, the exact launch date of these new realme TVs is not known. But we can expect to learn about it in the coming days, including the specs of these televisions.

How about next month?

At the IFA 2020 event, Realme announced a bunch of new products. The company will soon be launching the Smart TV 55 inch along with new audio products in the truly wireless earbuds category and wireless neckband earphones that feature active noise cancellation technology.
