Xiaomi has today announced a new Mi TV 4A variant
for the Chinese market. The new model comes with a 58-inch display and will
retail for a decent 2999 yuan (US$ 433) price tag, except that you won’t likely
get it at that amount outside China.
The Mi TV 4A series is supposed to be an affordable
series and was first unveiled in China in March last year. The series was first
unveiled in 43-inch, 49-inch, 55-inch and 65-inch models and later on, a
cheaper 32-inch model was launched. The 43-inch and 49-inch models feature a
1080p resolution on their displays, while the 55-inch and 65-inch models are
the high-end versions both having 4K display resolution a piece. The latest
58-inch model also comes with a 4K HDR screen.
Xiaomi Mi TV 4A 58-inch is powered by a quad-core
64-bit high-performance Amlogic T962 clocked at 1.5GHz while the graphics
aspect is powered by a Mali 450 750MHz GPU. The processor is paired with 2GB of
RAM. The device also offers up to 8GB of flash memory as against 32GB of
eMMC5.1 flash memory on other versions. In addition, the Mi TV 4A 58-inch
version comes with support for HDR10, a static contrast ratio of 5000:1,
refresh rate of 60Hz, viewing angle of 178 °, and the latest UHD HLG while also
supporting the Dolby Vision format. The Mi TV 4A comes in Smart just like
Xiaomi’s range of Mi TV, sporting a dual-band WiFi connection, as well as
Bluetooth 4.2. The Bluetooth connectivity allows the TV to connect with
accessories such as Bluetooth mouse, speakers, keyboard, gaming pad and others.
The smart TV is also equipped with Xiaomi’s
PatchWall artificial intelligence system with voice control. The system can
intelligently learn the user’s preference based on usage habits. It comes with
3 HDMI ports, 2 USB ports and antenna, AV input to connect the set-top box, S /
PDIF and other interfaces.
