As OnePlus is building hype for its upcoming smart TV in India, Redmi is trying to steal the thunder with the launch of its own smart TV this month. Xiaomi has sent out media invites and dropped teasers for its upcoming product launch, labelled under "Smarter Living 2020," which hints at more than just a smart TV.

The teaser poster shared on Twitter has a photo of a TV with thin bezels. All hints point to Redmi TV 70, which was launched in China last month. The smart TV will be competing against OnePlus TV on the affordability factor as Redmi TV's China pricing suggests it could cost somewhere around Rs 38,000 in India.

According to the teaser, the official unveiling of the Redmi TV 70 alongside some smart home products to justify the "Smarter Living 2020" title is set for September 17. The company already sells various smart things such as smart bulbs among other lifestyle and household products. It remains to be seen just how far Xiaomi is willing to expand its smart home portfolio in India.
