Mi TV 4A 40 Horizon Edition was launched in India on Tuesday, June 1. The new smart TV by Xiaomi comes as an upgrade over its existing Mi TV 4A 40 that was launched in 2019. The Mi TV 4A 40 Horizon Edition is touted to offer a “bezel-less” design to deliver an immersive viewing experience. It comes with a 93.7 percent screen-to-body ratio. However, apart from the new design, the smart TV is almost the same as the Mi TV 4A 40. It comes preloaded with the company’s PatchWall interface that brings features including Universal Search, Kids Mode, and Celebrity Watchlists, among others.
