At this price, Xiaomi is offering similar specifications and features at a similar or lower price to options such as the OnePlus TV Q1 and TCL 55C715 (Review).
The Mi QLED TV 4K will go on sale in India on December 21, at 12pm (noon) IST, via Flipkart, Mi.com, Mi Home stores, and other retail stores including Vijay Sales.

The TV runs Android TV 10, and is among the first major television launches to run the latest version of Android TV. However, this does not run the Google TV launcher as on the Chromecast with Google TV, instead running the stock Android TV launcher.The Mi QLED TV 4K comes with some key software-based changes that look to improve the usage experience, including a quick mute option, accessed by double-pressing the volume down button, and access to quick settings even within content by long-pressing the ‘Mi’ button on the remote.
