Depending on the model (full details below), they come with 1GB/2GB RAM + 8GB storage configurations, Bluetooth v4.2, Wi-Fi, three HDMI ports, 2 USB ports, one Ethernet and one S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interface) ports.

The company also announced that Mi TVs will come with 12-button remote having Google Voice assistant feature and guess what, the new and the old smart TVs will soon get Google Play store support and Amazon Prime Video compatibility via a software update.

Mi LED TV 4A PRO (49) and Mi LED TV 4C PRO (32) are priced at Rs 29,999 and Rs 14,999 respectively and will be available via Amazon and Mi.com starting October 9 at 9 PM.

All the models will be released to Mi Partner stores in coming months.

Another big star of the event is the Mi Band 3. It boasts bigger 0.78-inch OLED touchscreen display, improved alerts and 50m water resistance. Thanks to the large screen, Mi Band 3 can now display contents of notifications from your phone, in addition to information such as time, date and steps count.

It features a sleek, minimalist design, and simple navigation — users can swipe up and down to scroll through menu items and left and right for more options. Other new features include a built-in stopwatch, a phone locating function, and an independent vibrating alarm function that works even when your smartphone is turned off.

It will be available in India starting  September 28 from 12 noon on Mi.com and Amazon.in for Rs 1,999, same as that of the Mi Band 2(review).

The third major announcement was the Mi Air Purifier 2S. It comes with a compact and minimalist design which elegantly blends into any household environment. The OLED screen-equipped Mi Air Purifier 2S can quickly and precisely determine the PM2.5 levels and 0.3μm particles of its surroundings.

Along with a 360-degree cylindrical filter structure, Mi Air Purifier 2S can suck in air from every direction and deliver a high Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) of up to 310m³/h – it can circulate clean air entirely for a 21m2 room in just 10 minutes.

The company claims that the new Mi Air Purifier 2S can be remotely controlled using the Mi Home app, Google Assistant and Alexa. It will be available in India starting September 28, 12 noon on Mi.com, Flipkart and Amazon.in for Rs 8,999, which by the way is Rs 1,000 less than the predecessor's launch price.
