Xiaomi at its CES 2017 event in Las Vegas, apart from announcing a brand new White colour variant of the Mi MIX smartphone, also revealed the latest Mi TV 4 and Mi Router HD. Both the devices will be available later this year in China.
At the keynote, Hugo Barra, Global VP at Xiaomi, stressed that the Mi TV 4 is the company's thinnest TV to date. Barra added that the new Mi TV 4 is also the first TV in its lineup to incorporate the Dolby Atmos audio technology for cinema-grade experience. It sports frameless design, measures 4.9mm thin at its thinnest point, and is claimed to be 37 percent thinner than the Mi MIX and 30 percent thinner than the iPhone 7. The 4K TV comes in 49, 55, and 65-inch variants, and Xiaomi is stressing that the television is modular, allowing users to swap out motherboard and other internals when they want to upgrade.
Apart from design, Xiaomi has added its AI (artificial intelligence) based recommendations UI called PatchWall to the Mi TV 4. Notably, the PatchWall is a UI layer on top of the Android OS and it is based on deep learning AI technology. The new technology will make content recommendations using large amount of meta data about movies and TV shows alongside cross-referencing user's own content history for a tailored experience.
The Chinese company at the same event also announced the Mi Router HD which will be launching later in Q1 in China in 2 versions 1TB priced under $200 (roughly Rs. 13,500) and 8TB under $500 (roughly Rs. 34,000). It comes with four PCB array antennas and supports up to 2600Mbps transfer speeds. It is a 4x4 multi-user MIMO router with built-in surveillance-class hard drive of up to 8TB. The Mi Router HD automatically backs up all devices, and can also automatically sync the data with Dropbox.
