Xiaomi has come up with a new product launch, the Mi TV 4A series in India, with two models: 32-inch and 43-inch. This came within one month of the brand’s launch of the 55-inch Mi TV 4 in the country, providing users with more options to choose from in terms of smart TV.
The two models are specifically India-optimised, and they feature AI-powered PatchWall UI. This smart TV lineup of Xiaomi is named ‘Mi LED Smart TV 4A in India.’ 2017 March saw China first receiving Mi TV 4A, and this year’s launch in India brings the models with several differences.

According to Xiaomi, the model packs DTS-HD and two 10W speakers. The audio has been optimized in terms of loudness, considering the Indian users. It is available with an 11-button Mi remote that can control set-top boxes alongside the TV. The Mi IR cable that should help in the same is priced at Rs.299.
As for the 32-inch model, its HD display supports 1366 x 768 pixels with a viewing angle and refresh rate similar to its 43-inch counterpart.
