Xiaomi has just announced its updated Mi TV 4A Horizon Edition series for India. The update is basically meant for the entry-level models to gove them a fighting chance against OnePlus and Realme TVs. Xiaomi has shrunk the bezels and updated its PatchWall experience for the new models. Most importantly, the company has kept the price in the affordable category despite the hardware upgrades.
At Rs 22,999, the Mi TV Horizon Edition 43 is an interesting purchase. However, you can also buy the OnePlus TV 43 Y1 for the same price. If you compare these two smart TVs on sheet, there’s almost nothing differentiating them. They have the same display, the same audio hardware, similar internals, and the same price. Unless you are loyal to either brand, this could be difficult to choose between them.
