It rests on a circular base that houses the main processing unit and also acts as the speaker. On the back of this base are all the ports allowing for easier cable management. The Mi TV Lux Transparent Edition also allows access to the Xiaomi AIoT ecosystem, and is compatible with Airplay and Miracast.
“For Xiaomi, it [Mi TV Lux Transparent Edition] is also a major exploration of future TV forms,” Xiaomi said in a statement. “When Mi TV LUX Transparent Edition is turned off, it looks like a mere glass display. The pictures it displays seem to be floating in the air, merging the virtual and the real to bring an unprecedented visual experience.”
