Embattled Chinese tech giant Huawei has released several teaser posters that hint at the launch of a new smart TV under a new category. The Huawei Smart Screen SE looks like a trimmed-down version of the high-end models and will come with more affordable pricing while retaining the premium features for which the brand’s smart TVs are known.
The teaser posters which were splashed on
Vmall and Jingdong (JD.com) give us a glimpse of the smart TV as well as some
hints of the features to expect onboard. For one, the Huawei Smart Screen SE
will pack a pop-up camera that will definitely function as a web camera for
video calls and other related functions. The smart TV is touted to arrive in
two sizes – a 55-inch model that will be priced between 3,099 yuan – 3999 yuan
(US$ 600) and a 65-inch version priced around 4,099 – 4,999 yuan (US$ 700).
The Smart Screen SE is expected to pack a
4K display resolution and will support multi-touch functions. The poster also
shows that the Huawei Smart Screen SE will adopt a full-screen design with
ultra-thin bezels on all four sides. It is also coming with Huawei’s
self-developed color gamut enhancement technology. In addition, the screen is
also expected to bring support for anti-reflective, anti-glare, anti-blue light
technology and has zero color cast. The smart TV will run on Huawei’s custom
HarmonyOS that will bring along several smart features.
Apart from the Smart Screen SE, Huawei is
also expected to announce the FreeBuds 4 true wireless headsets, Mate View
high-end monitors, and a router at the May 19th press conference.
