New Xiaomi, OnePlus TVs take divergent trajectories on pricing

Can you remember the last time you read a television’s specifications before buying it? Not many do—at least, not in India. That doesn’t mean specs don’t matter, just that mainstream buyers don’t care about terms like million-to-one contrast ratio or Motion Estimation, Motion Compensation (MEMC).

What matters is picture quality as your eyes see it, audio as your ears hear it, and now even the operating system and connectivity.

The new OnePlus TV checks the right boxes in that regard. High quality content looks great on this TV, it delivers above average contrast and the colours look decent, if not absolutely punchy and out of this world.
