Xiaomi has just unveiled its Mi TV 2S, the latest model in the company’s growing Mi TV range. This new 48-inch version sits between the company’s first 49-inch TV and the 40-inch model released earlier in the year.

The Mi TV 2S is a large 48-inch TV which is capable of 60Hz 4K content decode through its HDMI 2.0a ports. The TV boats a sleek looking design with a 9.9mm super thin aluminum frame. At the launch presentation, the company also boasted about superior clarity, color and contrast compared to some TVs from rival manufacturers.

Xiaomi’s latest TV is powered by a quad-core MStar 6A928 SoC, 2GB of RAM and 8GB of internal memory. The Mi TV 2S also comes with Xiaomi’s Android 5.0 based MIUI and a load of additional content from providers including Youku, BesTV, PPTV, and others.

As we have come to expect from Xiaomi, pricing is as competitive as ever. Mi TV 2S prices begin at Rs. 2,999 ($480) for the standard edition, while the cinema edition costs a little more at Rs. 3,999 ($645). The Mi TV 2S will be available in a wide selection of colors, including pink, blue, green and gold.

At the launch event, Xiaomi also launched a new water purifier, which complements the company’s air purifier designed for the Chinese market.
