With that out of the way, here are some of the highlights of the all-new Redmi TV:

Display

The TV sports a massive 70-inch 4K LED panel (backlit) with a screen resolution of 3840 × 2160 pixels, HDR 10, and 178-degree viewing angle. It has bare minimal bezels around it and can either be wall-mounted or put on a tabletop.

Performance

The Redmi TV has a 1.5GHz Quad-Core 64-bit Amologic Cortex A53 processor with 750MHz Mali-450MP3 GPU running under the hood, paired with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage.

Connectivity

In terms of connectivity, the TV comes with Bluetooth 4.2, dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11ac (2.4GHz / 5GHz), and three HDMI and two USB ports. Additionally, it also comes with a Bluetooth voice remote control for quick and easy access.

Miscellaneous

The TV comes with Dolby Audio and DTS HD, and also offers support for formats like H.264, Real, MPEG1/2/4, etc. It runs on Xiaomi’s own PatchWall OS, which is the same operating system used on the Mi TV 4 series in India.

Pricing

The stand-out thing that is raising some eyebrows is the pricing for the Redmi TV 70. Xiaomi has, to some extent, completely taken aback a lot of its competitors, by pricing the Redmi TV 70 at just 3,799 yuan, which translates to USD 531 or INR 38,151.

Availability

The Redmi TV 70 is slated to go on sale in China starting September 10. As for its launch in India, the Redmi GM says that the TV will surely make its way to India. But, as of now, we do not have a fixed date. With Xiaomi already having its existing lineup of smart TVs under the Mi-series, which apparently, is doing good in the market, it is not very clear why the brand wants to branch out and introduce a completely new lineup of TVs with not many differential features (other than price).
