Xiaomi to launch Mi TV Q1 75" on 23rd March - QLED, 192 Zones, 120Hz

[vikrantxtrad]

I see following panel info. Does it mean it has the 1000nits panel?View attachment 59039

Cannot verify here. Use instruments or forget it and enjoy TV.

That's what the big names want you to think. In reality, the tech doesn't flow down to the rest of the portfolio and stays in the flagship TVs only. The budget TVs from big brands suck badly and are basically e-waste. If you want big brands, go for their top models as that's where the good stuff is.

Xiaomi isn't making the panels here. All QLED panels from Samsung Visual Display, Sony, Hisense and Xiaomi are made by Samsung Display. Samsung's TV division DOES NOT make the panels, but just the chassis and part of the software. So does Xiaomi.

You're more likely to get the big brand's tech in the cheap products of other brands than their own product stack. This is true in phones as well with Xiaomi offering Samsung's 108 MP sensor in their 18k phone while Samsung themselves not offering it anywhere close to this price.

Fun fact : Both Samsung and Xiaomi use TCL panels as Samsung has quit making LCD panels

I digress just for this one point. Lets not even begin to compare the implementation of Samsung camera sensors on a Xiaomi. They are pathetic in their performance. Samsung is on another level altogether. The images speak for themselves. I own a Mi 9 which was a flagship device. My 7 year old iphone6 took better pictures than the 48mp sensor on my <2 year old Xiaomi. It just saturates everything even if you turn off everything that does that. There is no comparison. Turn down the lights and all you can see is noise from a Xiaomi camera phone, even on their latest flagship device.

I've been down the road with a Samsung plasma, a cheap Videocon and now a Sony. The panels may well be sourced by the big names. We all know that only a handful of companies make these panels. That said, the panel quality isn't everything. Its also the software implementation that matters. My mid tier Sony looks a whole lot better than any low priced TV on the market. Like I said, there are cheaper TV brands to consider that do focus on the overall development of the product and supporting them long term. Xiaomi, for me, isn't one of them.

You are different and non-tech savvy I guess. Because I can guarantee you than Mi 9 can beat the hell out of iphone 6 Try installing GCAM.
It takes 5 min. Even @lightgamer will tell you same. Anyways did it for you.

I really forgot to ask. Do you own this 75 inch TV?
Because without that you are just speaking garbage by comparing a cheap mass produced Mi tv (20k) to Sony ( let's say 50k).
It's you who is crying about this TV while look at 50 pages on this thread, everyone is very satisfied. And not a single guy is complaining about the pq.

Ha ha. You sure know how to make one laugh. I rest my case. Lets continue the TV discussion and not derail the thread.

I am not sure what you are trying to prove with those images. I've owned both phones, know the difference first hand and I know where to put my money next time I am shopping for a phone.

If you don't own the TV, don't comment on its picture quality / performance. It's simple. I don't go to LG oled forum to say that LG has inferior blacks because my LG Mobile had bad signal reception.

You forgot that I was trying to help a few pages earlier. I was asking legit questions about the TV and the user who was facing issues with ARC. If that isn't considered helping someone out, then I don't know what is.

No. I do not own this particular TV. My folks own the 40" model. I know the difference between that and a TV from the likes of LG or Sony.

I did not report anything against the picture quality of this specific TV. That is a different matter. I was referring to the incompatibility of the TV with certain legacy devices.

Please mind your language.

No need to attack others just because they have differing opinions.
Calm down everyone.
It’s just a damn TV

I got the update this evening.
Booting times are same.
There is no lag for me ( atleast as of now)
Don't know about anything else because I use TV speakers and TV usage is 1-2 hrs per week. ( Really not using TV because busy life now).
I don't use much features other than putting in hard drive and youtube and watching 4k so everything is fine for me. 1100 sustained nits brightness is great for me. Not interested in paying more for diminishing returns.

Did you get Alexa as part of this update?

Yes, working

iPhone has better Lens quality - that could be the reason for this phenomenon despite it having mediocre settings/optics.

I hope you know that DXOMARK is the official camera quality reviewer just like Displaymate it for display.
iphone 6's camera is very very inferior and can't be even compared.
I don't wanna change the topic anymore on the thread but misinformation is great. @Love4sound

Hahah just wondering how iPhone camera topic came in to picture in a mi tv user thread

Random guy said that that Xaiomi can't make TV as 40 inch Xiaomi is inferior than Sony ( obviously because it's dirt cheap) and mi 9 for has inferior camera than iphone 6. Don't know man what to say. But I think I will stop but I hate big 3 worshiping.

Well i would say every one has their own preference and if you feel other wise you can also give your views in a polite manner and leave the conversation. Branding is very important for many including me. I am very brand picky as well but open to accepting facts irrespective of brands and technology

How logical is to compare 30k tv to 70k tv?
A 50k Xiaomi vs 50k sony? Who do you think will win?
A 70k Xiaomi vs 30k sony?

No idea as I haven’t seen any xiaomi tv till date so can’t comment. If you are happy with the xiaomi more then Sony and other opinions shouldn’t matter to you. The 75 inch seems to be making all the owners happy so must be a good tv and nothing can beat it for the price.

Yes, you're right. For a TV, panel is what matters. Sony processing won't make a 200-nit edge-lit LCD perform better than a Xiaomi FALD no matter how good the processing itself is. And this is without taking into account that Sony also puts cheaper processors in their 80 series or cheaper.

First of all, a Mi 9 will blow the pants off the iPhone 6. Anyone who thinks otherwise is kidding themselves. And you can use GCam like @vikrantxtrad mentioned which will further make images look significantly better.

Not to mention that Xiaomi's 18k Redmi Note 10 pro max destroys any Samsung sold below 30k in camera performance in real-world performance too. Obviously you can't compare it to S21 Ultra as The S21 ultra uses a custom sensor, way better SoC and hence ISP and better lens system.

About their new flagship device (Mi 11 Ultra), the camera is very close to the best as shown by various camera comparisons already. And it's significantly cheaper than S21 Ultra. Low light performance isn't a problem on any modern phone >20k.

I've been down the road with a Samsung plasma, a cheap Videocon and now a Sony. The panels may well be sourced by the big names. We all know that only a handful of companies make these panels.

Software doesn't matter as much on TVs. As I mentioned already, you can't beat a FALD TV with 1000-nit brightness with a cheapo Samsung/Sony with edge-lit 300-nit IPS panels no matter the processing. Regarding the UI, you can use an Apple TV 4k, firestick 4k or anything you want on a TV. It's not a phone where the UI matters to day to day usage as on a TV the UI is supposed to get out of the way.

Samsung/Sony/LG flagship TV > Xiaomi flagship TV >>>>>>>>>> not buying a TV > Samsung/Sony/LG budget TVs.

Tech will never trickle down to budget TVs from the top 3 brands. Else who would buy their top TVs. Even after 5+ years of FALD TVs their mid-range TVs don't have FALD. In fact, Samsung took away FALD from the Q60 and Q70 series over the years and now only their Q80 and Q90 have it.
