Xiaomi X Pro QLED TV: An affordable option with all the bells and whistles
Shouvik Das In a market dominated by premium brands, Xiaomi's 2025 X Pro Qled television offers great features like 'Filmmaker Mode' at a fraction of the cost. But is it a good buy, overall? The 65-inch variant of Xiaomi X Pro QLED TV Gift this article In 2018, Xiaomi brought its range of smart televisions to India. In due course, it had a similar effect as the company had on the smartphone market—bringing in features at lower prices than ever seen before. Fast forward to 2025, and the Xiaomi X Pro Qled television has nearly pulled off what was once typical to this brand—the experience of flagship products at a fraction of the price. In 2018, Xiaomi brought its range of smart televisions to India. In due course, it had a similar effect as the company had on the smartphone market—bringing in features at lower prices than ever seen before. Fast forward to 2025, and the Xiaomi X Pro Qled television has nearly pulled off what was once typical to this brand—the experience of flagship products at a fraction of the price. Case in point: earlier this year, Japanese giant Sony introduced a picture mode called 'Studio Calibrated' on its flagship line of Bravia televisions. The rationale was to offer buyers of some of the most premium televisions in the market a picture mode that replicated colour and related settings that a movie director shot a piece of content in. It was one of the ways through which Sony sought to differentiate its offering—televisions, after all, is an increasingly commoditized market today. The 2025 edition of the Xiaomi X Pro Qled television, interestingly, has almost pulled off a similar feat—with a dedicated 'Filmmaker Mode' in the TV. Before a qualitative analysis of it, a more important factor to note is the price at which Xiaomi has rolled out this feature. The Sony Bravia 3, which offers this feature albeit with an 'Oled' display panel, is priced at ₹ 1.65 lakh for the 65-inch variant. Samsung, Sony's Korean rival and India's biggest television seller by volume at the end of last year, made the 'Qled' technology mainstream. Today, a 65-inch Samsung Qled television starts at ₹ 88,000—about half the price of Sony's. Xiaomi, with its 65-inch X Pro Qled, charges users ₹ 64,000—nearly one-third lesser than Samsung, and at two-fifth that of Sony. Also read: An 11th grader brings technology to canine care Purely from a cost standpoint, the Xiaomi X Pro Qled television stands out for having delivered on the transition that India's television market is going through. Driven by easy financing availability and rising credit, buyers are increasingly looking for larger or more premium televisions. For Xiaomi, third in the market behind Samsung and LG, this could be a major pitch to rope more customers back into its ecosystem. Balance of performance While the cost advantage is a good thing, the performance factor cannot be ignored. On this note, the Xiaomi X Pro Qled ticks the basic checkboxes at the onset—a reasonably slim build, the typical Google TV interface coupled with a custom layer of content recommendations, and ample picture settings to tweak around. The panel itself delivers stable picture quality—no obvious quirks or imbalances. The backlight is amply bright, which means that the television will produce legible visuals even in very bright living room environments. While brightness is the typical factor of strength for Qled televisions, it also does reasonably well in dim environments, without creating very noisy shadows or pixelated scenes in movies that have predominantly dark scenes. There is also no interpolation that's apparent in about one month's usage—showing that fundamentally, the picture panel used by Xiaomi is reliable and adequate for a 65-inch, 4K television. The 65-inch variant in use here also uses a relatively new technology called 'Dual Line Gate' (DLG)—using which televisions can upscale the refresh rate of the display panel. Think of this as how smooth a television can be in showcasing fast-moving scenes—a factor that typically comes into play for gamers who would hook up their Xbox, Switch or PlayStation gaming consoles to the television. For them, the Xiaomi X Pro 65-inch Qled Google TV attempts to produce visuals akin to more expensive televisions that use a native 120Hz refresh rate display. The result is almost in line with flagships, but sampled on an Xbox Series S, the refresh rate delivery was not at a constant 120Hz. That said, for most casual gamers, the difference is unlikely to make a major dent. All said and done, it is the 'Filmmaker mode' that stands out here. Xiaomi allows viewers to switch to this mode to give a true-to-source representation of the cinema on the screen. The result, truth be told, is impressive for a television that costs a fraction of the market average. Xiaomi even allows users to tweak the settings in this mode—a good factor, which would allow users to use this mode as a template, and then tweak the picture settings to their preference. While the picture quality of the Xiaomi X Pro Qled's 2025 edition is recommendable, the native audio quality, despite the use of 34-watt in-TV speakers along with Dolby Atmos support, is a touch underwhelming. The absence of bass, which is common in non-flagship televisions, is evident—a factor that won't go unnoticed. Also apparent is the design of the television—while there are no discrepancies, the distinctly premium brushed-metal finish on Samsung and Sony's televisions are missing on the Xiaomi X Pro Qled. It isn't something that would get in the way of the picture quality, but is something to be noticed nonetheless. Still a good pick All said, there is no denying that purely based on the picture quality on offer in return of the price, the Xiaomi X Pro Qled 65-inch, 2025 edition TV is a worth purchase for those looking for a larger-than-average television but within a limited budget. Xiaomi has ensured that all essentials are delivered upon—even the audio quality is not underwhelming, even though not as wholesome as it could have been. Simply for this, it would be difficult to find a television that is more value for money than this one, especially with a 65-inch screen in tow. Unscrambling the jargon Qled: Quantum light emitting diode, the fundamental technology that uses ultra-bright dots on the display, in place of Organic light emitting diode (Oled)—which uses ultra-dimming dots. Refresh rate: The number of times a TV's panel flickers, measured in hertz (Hz). The higher the number, the smoother is the display—and typically, the more expensive is a TV. Backlight: A panel of light behind the main screen. The best TVs have backlights that can be both very bright and super dim—and would thus be suitable for most scenes. Dolby Atmos: A proprietary surround sound technology. In good speakers, presence of Dolby Atmos signifies superlative stereo and directional audio delivery.

After Pixel 9, Google Pixel 10 tipped to skip vapour chamber cooling once again
Google is all set to announce the upcoming flagship -- the Google Pixel 10 -- most likely in August. While the details of the forthcoming series are still under wraps, the rumour has it that it will follow the predecessor, bringing four models to the shelves. These models include the Google Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL and Pixel 10 Pro Fold. But this is not the only part where the next-gen Google flagship follows its predecessor, the Pixel 9. According to the latest leak, the base model of the Pixel 10 will skip the vapour cooling chambers once Pixel 10 and its omissionsGoogle's vanilla Pixel 10 is turning out to be a mix of good and bad. Fresh reports suggest that the standard model may once again forgo several notable hardware features. According to Android Headlines, the base Pixel 10 is unlikely to include a vapour chamber for cooling, a component that helps regulate heat and maintain performance under heavy use. The absence of such a system was already criticised in the Pixel 9, and its omission from the Pixel 10 may prove frustrating for users seeking improved thermal to the surprises, it appears the Pixel 10 may also lack Wi-Fi 7 support, despite the fact that last year's Pixel 9 included compatibility with the next-generation wireless standard. If accurate, this move would represent a step backwards in terms of future-proof connectivity for the Camera enthusiasts, too, might have reason for disappointment. Earlier leaks had hinted at significant enhancements to video stabilisation across the Pixel 10 line-up. However, it now seems that this 'ultra-stable' video recording technology will not make its way to the vanilla model. Similarly, a new 'Ultra Res Zoom' feature, believed to deliver greater zoom capability than the current Super Res Zoom (which tops out at 8x), is reportedly set to skip the base version as the design front, the Pixel 10 is expected to feature matte-finish sides paired with a glossy rear panel. As anticipation builds ahead of the official launch, it seems the standard Pixel 10 may be positioned as a more stripped-down alternative to its Pro Pixel 10 launch and what to expectMultiple leaks suggest that Google's Pixel 10 series will make its debut at the Made by Google event, which is rumoured to take place on August 20, 2025. Pricing for the standard Pixel 10 is expected to begin at around Rs 79,999, while the Pixel 10 Pro could carry a price tag of approximately Rs 1,09,999. These figures would firmly position the new devices within the premium flagship bracket, ensuring they remain strong contenders against rivals such as Samsung and Apple. - Ends

Samsung set to launch Galaxy Z Flip 7, Fold 7 & Fold Ultra at July 9 event in New York
Samsung has officially confirmed a high-profile launch event set for July 9 in Brooklyn, New York, where it is expected to reveal its newest foldable smartphones — the Galaxy Z Flip 7, Z Fold 7, and a possible premium entry, the Fold Ultra. The event, dubbed Samsung Unpacked 2025, will also be live-streamed on Samsung's website and YouTube. Sticking to its mid-year schedule, Samsung aims to steal the spotlight before Google's and Apple's fall launches. This year's foldables are rumored to be thinner, lighter, and feature enhanced displays, upgraded cameras, and longer battery life. A notable addition could be the 'Ultra experience' teased by Samsung, which points toward a high-performance foldable — possibly the Galaxy Z Fold Ultra — with a powerful camera and integrated AI tools. While the Galaxy S series remains Samsung's top-selling product line, the company is betting big on foldables. Since launching its first folding phone in 2019, Samsung has dominated the segment, though competition from Chinese brands like Honor and Oppo is heating up with sleeker designs. The event may also showcase updates on Project Moohan, Samsung's mixed-reality headset being developed in collaboration with Google. Running on Android XR, this headset could rival Apple's Vision Pro in terms of functionality and design. Additionally, a new wearable device may make its debut. With Apple rumored to enter the foldable space in 2026, Samsung is clearly racing to solidify its lead in this futuristic category. Stay tuned for what promises to be a game-changing reveal.
