Nokia
has launched its first smart TV in the Indian market with e-commerce platform
Flipkart. The 55-inch model being launched today is the first of its kind, with
more models coming in later. The
Nokia 55CAUHDN has a 55-inch display with 4K UHD resolution, 60Hz refresh rate,
400 nits peak brightness, 1200:1 contrast ratio and 178 degree viewing angles.
The TV uses an ADS panel, which is a variant of the IPS technology and has
similar properties.
The
display supports wide color gamut as well as HDR, including Dolby Vision
support. Although with 400nits of peak brightness and no full-array local
dimming support, don't expect great HDR experience. The audio is handled by JBL with an
integrated soundbar system at the bottom of the television. You also get Dolby
Audio and DTS Tru Surround on the software side.
Internally,
the television has a quad-core (4x Cortex-A53) CPU clocked at 1GHz and Mali-450
GPU, 2.25GB memory, 16GB internal storage, Bluetooth 5.0 and Wi-Fi. You get 3x
HDMI ports and 2x USB ports.
The
TV runs on Android TV 9.0 platform with built-in Chromecast support. You also
get Netflix, YouTube and Hotstar apps pre-installed, although there doesn't
seem to be Amazon Prime Video, likely due to the exclusive partnership with
Amazon rival Flipkart.
The
television has a clean, minimal design with a centrally located stand so you
don't need a wide table to place it and relatively thin bezels. The Nokia 55CAUHDN is priced at INR 41,999
(US$ 589) and will be available on Flipkart starting December 10 at 12PM IST.
