P40 Pro and P40 Pro+ flagship phones. These handsets will get a dedicated
launch in China on April 8. The upcoming event in China will also see the
arrival of some other products. Today, Huawei rolled out a new poster to reveal

Unfortunately, nothing else is known about
the mysterious Huawei Vision Smart TV. The Chinese firm had introduced its
first 75-inch and 65-inch Vision Smart TVs last year in November. Priced at

display. It produced 4K resolution with a high refresh rate of 120Hz along with
HDR boost support. It came loaded with the company’s very own HongMeng OS (also
known as HarmonyOS).
The Vision Smart TV was fueled by Honghu
818 quad-core processor.The smart TV was fueled by a 65W speaker unit that
comprised of 6 full-range speakers coupled with a pair of tweeters, two passive
radiators and a 1 woofer. Just as it is shown in the teaser poster above, the
first Vision Smart TVs were equipped with pop-up camera for 1080p (30fps) video
calls.
On the connectivity front, the TV came
with support for dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5., HDMI 2.0, USB 3.0 ports and
coaxial. It also featured the Xiaoyi voice-assistant Earlier this month, the
Chinese firm unveiled 65-inch Huawei Smart Vision TV Premium Edition that came
with 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage.
The Smart Vision TV from Huawei is a part
of its “1 + 8 + N” strategy. In the three-layer structured strategy, 1 refers
to smartphones, 8 refers to products like TV, PC, tablet, glasses,
smartwatches, locomotives and earphones and N signifies a larger number of IoT
devices.
