These TV models will range from 32-inch to 70-inch and will hit the market sometime in September via Amazon and Flipkart. That's all the information Acer has revealed about its upcoming TVs.

Licensing agreements in the Smart TV segment aren't new. For example, Flipkart holds the license for Nokia and Motorola smart TVs in India, though the actual manufacturer is unknown. Similarly, the license for Kodak and Blaupunkt smart TVs in India is held by Noida-based Super Plastronics. E-commerce platforms like Amazon and Flipkart have their own brands as well. Amazon uses its Amazon Basics brand to make a host of appliances including TVs. Flipkart has its MarQ brand for the same purpose.
