bought Xiaomi TV S Mini LED 55" 2025 for $750, already used for 1 month plus, so far so good, ui is responsive, able to launch all apps immediately, i think it's worth the price imo. tried Dune 2 and mad max fury road for HDR pic. Simply breathtaking imo. My only complaint is the remote control ,somehow the placement buttons are weird and it feels plastic cheapo.
when i search for mini led or qled 55", i think this model was the cheapest.

U can consider xiaomi Tv A Pro 2026 also. Just launched also.it's qled and have the BETTER desgined 360 deg bt remote control and cheaper !

Didn't know xiaomi Tv A Pro 2026 is launching, ordered a xiaomi TV S Mini LED 65" 2025 yet to deliver but feel overkill now since I don't game.

My TCL one year already gone black with no image and another one 2 years. They will just ignored you on the warranty. Might as well buy more reputable brand with physical service center. In fact it is more expensive of getting a tv which spoilt within a few hundred hours of usage for my case as compared to those that can last longer in term of per hour cost. You are paying several dollars per hour usage as compared to less than 1 cent for tv which can last for 100,000 of hours.

i feel better after hearing about your TCL tv. I had mine for 4 years until the screen went black. before that it already had screen deterioration for at least a year plus but lived with it

After this experience, no more TCL and the similar type of TVs for me.

Mini LED ah? I'm also considering a "budget" one too for a guest room.

TCL c7k perhaps. 1000 zones/2600 nits vs the xiaomi s 2026 global model 408 zones/1500ish nits... $1390 vs $990

Too bad xiaomi s 2026 china model is not available, its specs I wonder if fake, so overpowered. Own HyperOS, not google tv... lol. Some of your TCL horror stories give me pause, mini leds or those really cheapo tv under 500 bucks?

Tcl c6k for budget
