The past few months have seen major, long overdue price corrections in the television segment in India, with most models now costing a fair bit more than they did in 2020. You could expect to buy a well-specced 55-inch Ultra-HD TV for under Rs. 40,000 not so long ago, but it's hard to find such deals anymore since many popular brands including Xiaomi, Hisense, and Vu now have prices starting at around the Rs. 45,000 mark for a 55-inch LED TV. Naturally, this new 55-inch Ultra-HD TV from Thomson priced at under Rs. 40,000 caught my attention.
The best TVs are often the biggest, and it's getting harder to find small TVs that have the specifications and features you want. Although brands such as Xiaomi, TCL and Vu do offer smart functionality with even their smaller screen TVs, these options are often limited to HD or full-HD resolution panels at best. Small TVs with a 4K panels and all the important features are still relatively rare.
