Now, they have added X Series Smart TVs to their lineup. The company has released the eagerly awaited X Series Smart TVs in India. Here are the details…

Xiaomi’s X Series Smart TV Offers Unparalleled 4K Entertainment Experience

India is one of the most important markets for Xiaomi. The company has a significant market share here, not only with its smartphones but also with its other products. For example, when we look at the smart TV market in India, we see that Xiaomi is leading with 10.5%. The success of this tech giant is due to its advanced but affordable television models. Now, Xiaomi has added X Series Smart TVs to their lineup.

Taking feedback from its users and fans, Xiaomi has brought back the 65-inch model to the X Series after four years. The X Series also has models in 55-inch, 50-inch, and 43-inch sizes. Instead of focusing on apps, the new X Series Smart TVs from Xiaomi now use a ‘Content first UI system. This is powered by Google TV and PatchWall+, and it customizes what users see based on what they like to watch.

The X Series Smart TVs feature a number of upgrades over previous models, including a new content-first UI powered by Google TV and PatchWall+, Dolby Vision and Vivid Picture Engine technology, a 30W speaker with Dolby Audio, and a bezel-less design with full-screen experience with up to 98% screen-to-body ratio.

The latest Xiaomi Smart TV X Series can display images in Dolby Vision and HDR10. These technologies make colors look more real and improve the brightness and range of colors shown on the screen. This Xiaomi TV series has a special feature called Vivid Picture Engine (VPE), which Xiaomi built. It lets the TV show up to 94% of the DCI-P3 Color Range, giving the viewer access to over a billion different colors.

This greatly enhances what you see on the screen. On top of this, Xiaomi has its own technology, called Reality Flow, that makes sure moving images on the screen don’t blur and look smooth, even when they’re moving quickly. Besides the Dolby Audio and powerful 30 Watt speakers, the Xiaomi Smart TV X series support DTS:X and DTS: Virtual X Technology, allowing users to discover new levels of detail, clarity, and depth for a powerful room-filling surround sound that completes an immersive entertainment experience.

The latest Xiaomi X Series smart TVs have some really neat features. They come with Google Assistant so you can control them by speaking. They also have Chromecast built-in, and Miracast which lets you show stuff from your phones, tablets, or laptops on the TV. What’s more, these new TVs can connect with all the new video game consoles. They have 3 HDMI v2.1 ports, 2 USB ports, and a port for an audio/video cable and earphones. These TVs run on a 64-bit Quad Core A55 chip, and have dual band Wi-Fi for fast internet. The X Series also includes Bluetooth 5.0, making it easy to connect to any audio device.

Price and Availability

The 65-inch version of the Xiaomi Smart TV X Series will be ready to buy starting August 5th, 2023. The other versions of this Xiaomi Smart TV series start at a price of 28,999 Indian Rupees.

Xiaomi has officially released its financial report for the third quarter of the year. The report shows that the revenue from Xiaomi’s IoT and consumer products segment increased by 16.1%  from 15.6 billion yuan recorded in the third quarter of 2019 to 18.1 billion yuan recorded in Q3 2020. The growth in revenue is mainly due to the growth in demand for IoT product category ranging from robot vacuum, smart TVs to electric scooters.

Xiaomi’s revenue from smart TVs and notebook computers rose from 5.8 billion yuan in the third quarter of 2019 to 5.9 billion yuan in the third quarter of 2020. This represents a YoY growth of 2.6%. Specifically, the report shows that Xiaomi shipped 3.1 million units of Mi TVs in the third quarter, the highest by any brand. Again, this places the brand at the top of the smart TV shipment ranking for the Chinese market, a feat it has achieved for seven consecutive quarters

Shipping estimates published by market research firm Avi Cloud (AVC) shows that apart from ranking first for seven straight quarters in China, Xiaomi’s smart TV shipments will continue to rank among the top five globally.

The growth recorded by the Chinese tech giant in the sector is driven by a consistent outflow of quality products and that continued in the third quarter of 2020. During this period, the tech giant released a host of IoT and consumer products which may have helped shore up the revenue. Xiaomi launched the 34-inch Mi Curved Display, MIJIA Internet Direct Drive Washing and Drying Machine 10kg, MIJIA Smart Steam Oven, Mi True Wireless Bluetooth headset Air 2 Pro and other products. Despite always sticking to the minimalist design pattern, the products are often of topnotch quality while retaining the affordable pricing which Xiaomi is reputed for. (via)

Latest data from Avi Cloud (AVC) puts the cumulative sales volume of the entire colour TV market in China at 9.963 million units in the first quarter of 2020.

The Indian TV market has seen significant growth in recent times, especially due to the budget friendly offerings from various brands. These include TVs from Xiaomi, TCL, Samsung, Vu and more. The market hit 15 million unit shipments in 2019, marking a year on year growth of 15 percent in 2018.

The Chinese tech giant, Xiaomi, led the smart TV market while Samsung took top spot in the overall TV segment. The former saw significant growth this year with a year on year rise of 40 percent. According to reports, the surge is accredited to budget smart TVs in the 32 inch category, that led the segment due to its 11,000 INR price segment (roughly 150 US Dollars).

A report under “TV Tracker Service” from Counterpoint, a renowned analytics firm, revealed the aforementioned figures. Furthermore, a Senior Analyst even mentioned that, “affordability and value for money are the key growth drivers. The new crop of brands such as Xiaomi, TCL and others are tapping their existing relationships with e-commerce channels such as Flipkart, Amazon, etc to successfully distribute the TVs affordably with a direct-to-consumer model.”

In other words, the Indian TV market saw growth due to certain key factors like affordability and price to value offerings. Additionally, major e-retailers like Amazon and Flipkart supplemented this growth through easier accessibility. Samsung saw a growth of 6 percent in 2019 (YoY), with most of its growth coming from its smart TV offerings which included the N5000, N7000, R5000 and R7000 lineup.

The South Korean tech giant was also successful in the 50,000 INR price and higher price segments, with a reported market share of 40 percent. Although its non-smart TV portfolio saw an overall decline. The company is still the market leader in the Indian subcontinent but emerging players are making a sizeable impact as well. Best examples of this are Xiaomi and TCL. Both brands have 4K Smart TV offerings around the 50,000 INR mark, which is uncommon in most cases. Even OnePlus‘ smart TV is priced at 100,000 INR, although, it features a QLED 4K smart TV with a 50W Soundbar.

Xiaomi‘s foray into the Indian smart TV market began in 2018. However, the Chinese company has made tremendous progress. Recent data from research outfit IDC shows that Xiaomi’s smart TV controls a 39% share of the market in India. This data was amplified by Xiaomi TV’s official Weibo handle earlier today.

The chart shows the top 4 spots are occupied by Xiaomi in the first position followed by LG. The third and fourth spots are occupied by Sony and Samsung respectively. What is even more interesting is that Xiaomi’s market share is double what each of the other three OEMs achieved in India in Q1 2019. LG recorded a 15% market share while Sony recorded a 14% market share. Samsung had a 12% share of the market in Q1 2019.

Analysis of the data shows Xiaomi even sold almost the same number of units of smart TVs as the other three combined. We say so because if you add up the market share (in percentage) of the other three OEMs, it adds up to 41%, just 2% higher than Xiaomi’s market share.

Fora company that launched its first smart TV for India, the  Mi LED TV 4 PRO 55” in February 2018, this is no mean feat. We can recall that on its first flash sales, the TV sold out in under 10 seconds even with its Rs. 39,999 (~$624) price tag. In subsequent months, Xiaomi launched cheaper models of its TVs – the Mi LED TV 4A 32” and the Mi LED TV 4A 43” which were priced at Rs. 13,999 (~$190) and Rs. 22,999 (~$313) respectively. The Chinese tech giant has also added the Mi LED TV 4C PRO 32” and Mi LED TV 4A PRO 49” to its inventory.

As a result of the premium quality and cheap pricing of Xiaomi’s TVs, by Q2 2018, the company had already emerged as the market leader in the smart TV category. Xiaomi’s TVs are not just cheaper than that of the competition in India, they are also customized for the market. Owners can connect their set-top boxes to the TV and view the content alongside online content instead of switching from one to the other. The bundled remote with the TV also works with the connected set-top box. The company also opened a new TV factory in India late last year in order to increase supply.

Over the past couple of months, we have seen many new products from Xiaomi. This Chinese smartphone manufacturer has expanded into newer product categories like routers, game controllers, and even air purifiers. Even in the smartphone lineup, the company launched a new Xiaomi Mi Note series which offered top end specs at an affordable price tag.

Now, it looks like the company is all set to announce a new Xiaomi TV tomorrow as Lei Jun, the founder and CEO of Xiaomi revealed a new teaser earlier today. He said in a post that Xiaomi will announce something new about its TV range at 11:00 AM on March 19, i.e. tomorrow. He even tagged Wang Chuan in the post, who is the director of Xiaomi smart TV business.

He became the eight core team member of Xiaomi after it acquired Duokan, a company which made apps for e-readers and Apple TV. Apart from the apps, Duokan is also an alternative OS for Amazon’s Kindle devices which brought in a lot of new features to the device. Its CEO, Mr. Chuan has years worth of experience in business, since he entered the entrepreneurship world just two years after graduating.

The company already has its own Xiaomi TV lineup in the market, but its far from perfect. Mr. Chuan had earlier said that the company aimed to make the OS more user friendly so that people from all ages could operate it, from a four year old to an eighty year old.

Unfortunately, neither Lei Jun nor Chuan has revealed any further details about tomorrow’s announcement, but since we are less than 24 hours away, we just have to wait and watch what the company has in store for us.
