Redmi, the budget smartphone making unit of Xiaomi, is apparently planning on launching a new smart TV in its home country of China. It appears that the company will soon launch a top end TV with a massive 100 inch display size.

According to a MySmartPrice report, the Chinese company’s new MAX smart TV has been spotted on various certification websites. It is a 100 inch smart TV model that has surfaced on Bluetooth SIG certification and even 3C certification database as well. It carries the model number L100R8-MAX and was also listed with its actual name, the Redmi MAX 100 inch Giant Screen TV. Notably, the company had released the Redmi Smart TV 98 inch MAX back in 2020, so this version might be its successor.

The 98 inch smart TV was also launched in India, and supports 4K resolution. So, we can expect the newer model to also release in India and carry a similar, if not higher resolution. As per the Bluetooth SIG certification, the upcoming MAX 100 inch Giant Screen TV will feature Bluetooth 5.0. Unfortunately, this is also the information shared on this listing. However, the 3C certification database in China revealed that the display panel on the TV will arrive with a 60Hz refresh rate.

Finer details regarding this new smart TV is still at large, but, we can make some speculations based on the previously launched MAX model. The 98 inch model featured 4K resolution along with 85 percent NTSC color gamut and 192 dynamic backlight zones. Furthermore, it was also powered by a custom 12nm chipset that was paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. So, the new 100 inch model will likely feature at least these specifications, alongside some improvements as well.

Last year, Xiaomi launched its largest smart TV ever called Redmi Smart TV MAX 98”.  Almost a year later, the company has now started teasing another such model. This television is said to be announced at the Redmi K40 series launch event, which is scheduled for February 25.

Xiaomi’s official smart TV Weibo account posted a teaser for the upcoming Redmi MAX TV. In the post, the company asks netizens to guess the size of the newer model to win a Bluetooth speaker. 

So far, the company has not revealed any highlights of this TV. The firm has only hinted that the forthcoming Redmi MAX TV will be ‘so big that it almost can’t get into the elevator’.

For those unaware, the Redmi Smart TV MAX 98” released in 2020 is Xiaomi’s largest television till now. As the name suggests, this television flaunts a 98-inch LED-backlit LCD panel with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels (4K) and a 60Hz refresh rate. The screen has a 178° viewing angle, 98.8% screen-to-body ratio, and supports 85% of the NTSC color gamut.

It is powered by an Amlogic T972 SoC paired with 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage. On the connectivity front, the TV comes with dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth, Infrared, 3 x HDMI (one of them is ARC compatible), AV composite, DTMB port, 2 x USB, Ethernet, and S/PDIF.

Other features of this TV include 2 x 8W speakers, Dolby Audio, DTS-HD, HDR, MEMC, Xiao AI voice assistant, and PatchWall content aggregation service. The product debuted for ¥19,999 and it is still listed at the same price on Mi.com.

Because of its sheer size, the Redmi Smart TV MAX 98” was only available online for a long time. It finally hit a single offline store in December 2020. This television is difficult to manufacture and its installation requires a specially trained workforce.
