Xiaomi launches Mi TV 3 with a 70-inch 4K display

Xiaomi is known to be involved in multiple market segments, with televisions being one of them. The company has now released the Mi TV 3, succeeding the widely popular Mi TV 2 from earlier this year. The company also released a 60-inch Mi TV 3 a couple of months ago, making this the second offering in the Mi TV 3 lineup.

This television comes with a massive 70-inch display panel sporting a resolution of 3840x2160 which in other words is Ultra-HD or 4K. The device is limited to the Chinese markets for the time being, but we're hoping against hope that the company would release it in the Indian markets as well.

The 70-inch Mi TV 3 costs 9,999 CNY which is about Rs 1,02,000, so it's certainly not going easy on the customers' wallets. But considering what it brings to the table, the Mi TV 3 is an excellent value even at this price as most Smart TVs at this cost would be 2x or 3x pricier.

Since this is a Smart TV, it also comes with a 1.4 GHz quad-core MStar 6A928 processor, 8GB of internal storage for native content, 2GB of RAM, an ethernet port, a micro USB port, a full sized USB 3.0 port, three HDMI ports along with WiFi and Bluetooth 4.1 (LE) connectivity. The display has a refresh rate of 120Hz and 85 percent NTSC color gamut, which is quite decent for a panel this size.

For audio lovers, the TV comes with 2.5-inch stereo speakers with features like Bass Boost and Dolby DTS Virtual Surround Sound. Keeping the premium nature of the device in mind, the Mi TV 3 comes with a metal frame as well as a metal back panel.
