Earlier this month, it was revealed that
Nokia was planning to introduce a 43-inch version of the smart TV. That
speculation has gained traction as the company has now listed the Nokia TV
43-inch model on its official website. The page includes a data form for
notification which is an indication that the launch is imminent.
The listing doesn’t reveal many details of
the Nokia TV. However, the smart TV is listed to have a 43-inch size and
feature JBL sound system. We expect the specifications to be similar to those of
the 55-inch version. However, Nokia may decide to downgrade the display
resolution from 4K to Full HD which would help bring down the price.
An earlier poster teased by Flipkart
suggests the TV will have slim bezels on three sides with the bottom edge
having a thicker bezel because of the speaker. The poster also revealed the TV
will run on Android 9 OS which is the same as the 55-inch version. We expect
the smart TV to also get support for Google Assistant and Chromecast built-in.
It will also have Dolby Audio and DTS Surround Sound.
Nokia released the 55-inch version on
Flipkart for Rs. 41,999 (US$ 552) but this 43-inch version is rumoured to come in
at INR 30,999 (US$ 418). We expect a cheaper price tag considering that the Mi TV
4X 43-inch model which was released for INR 24,999 (US$ 337). The smart TV is
expected to be sold on Flipkart aside Nokia’s smart TV.
