Redmi, a sub-brand of Xiaomi, recently launched the first Fire OS-powered 32-inch smart TV – Redmi Smart Fire TV in India under the Rs 15,000 category. As the demand for smart TVs continues to grow in the country, the Redmi TV offers all the features one would expect in this price range, making it an attractive option.
Redmi Smart Fire TV price and features
Redmi Smart Fire TV price in India is Rs 13,999. The Redmi TV comes with Amazon’s Fire OS 7 with over 12,000 apps from the Fire TV App Store, including Prime Video, Netflix, Disney+ Hotstar, Zee5, SonyLiv, YouTube and more. You can stream Amazon miniTV and over 70 live channels. We reviewed this product and more for over two weeks and here’s what I have to say about the new budget smart TV from Redmi.
redmi smart fire tv design
Starting with the design, the budget-friendly Redmi Smart Fire TV is an ideal choice for small rooms or families. The Redmi TV sports a simple plastic body with thin bezels on three sides giving it a sleek look. The TV comes with a stand, but if you prefer to mount it on the wall, you’ll need to buy a wall mount separately. The only downside to the design is the weight management, in my opinion this Redmi TV is a bit heavy if you compare it with the competition available in the market.
The TV offers everything you need, including two USB Type-A ports, a 3.5mm aux port, two HDMI ports, and an Ethernet port. There’s also a white LED indicator and a physical power button at the bottom of the TV. The remote control has quick access buttons for major OTT platforms and an Alexa voice assistance button. Additionally, there are buttons for guide, mute, volume adjustment, navigation, playback controls (fast forward, pause, rewind), and power.
The remote is not only user-friendly but also offers the added advantage of controlling smart devices within your home with the Alexa Button. Using the Redmi Smart Fire TV 32 Remote is a smooth and hassle-free experience. Overall, the Redmi Smart Fire TV 32 is the right choice for anyone looking for a budget-friendly option with all the essential features.
redmi smart fire tv display
Coming to the display, the display performance of the Redmi Smart Fire TV 32 is decent, especially considering its budget-friendly price. It features a 32-inch LED screen with a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels, which is good enough to enjoy most content in a small room. The TV’s color reproduction is adequate, but not exceptional, and can look a bit washed out compared to high-end models.
In terms of refresh rate, the Redmi Smart Fire TV 32 has a standard 60Hz refresh rate and can handle most content without any noticeable lag or stuttering. One area where the Redmi Smart Fire TV excels is its viewing angles. The TV offers wide viewing angles, allowing viewers to watch from almost any position in the room without compromising on picture quality. This makes it a great choice for small family rooms or bedrooms.
redmi smart fire tv audio
The Redmi Smart Fire TV comes with 20W stereo speakers (two of 10W each) with Dolby audio support. The TV supports DTS-HD surround sound, which provides a more immersive audio experience than standard stereo sound. Sound quality is good, with clear dialogue and decent bass. However, the maximum volume may not be loud enough for large rooms. Overall, while the audio performance of the Redmi Smart Fire TV 32 may not be exceptional, it is still good enough to provide a pleasant viewing experience, especially for smaller rooms.
redmi smart fire tv performance
Redmi Smart Fire TV 32-inch is powered by 64-bit quad core processor coupled with Mali G31 MP2 graphics. The TV runs on Fire OS7 with features like smart hub control, multiple viewing profiles and watch history. The TV runs Amazon’s Fire OS 7 with over 12,000 apps from the Fire TV app store including Prime Video, Netflix, Disney+ Hotstar, Zee5, SonyLiv, YouTube and more. You can stream Amazon miniTV and 70+ live channels.
Redmi Smart Fire TV integrates live TV from the set-top-box on the home screen to switch between DTH TV channels and OTT apps. The new television also supports Apple Airplay and Miracast. The Redmi Smart Fire TV 32 delivers decent performance for its price range. It runs on a quad-core processor, which is more than enough for most daily tasks like streaming, browsing, and switching between apps. The TV comes with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage, which is more than enough to store apps and media.
The TV operates Amazon’s Fire OS, which offers a user-friendly interface and easy navigation. The one downside of the Redmi Smart Fire TV is that it doesn’t support 4K resolution or HDR content. Additionally, while the TV is quick and responsive for most tasks, there can sometimes be some lag when running more demanding apps or games.
Verdict of Redmi Smart Fire TV:
Priced at Rs 13,999, the Redmi Smart Fire TV 32 packs in decent performance and offers a decent viewing experience in the budget category. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option with access to popular streaming apps and basic smart home integration, it’s definitely worth considering.
