Lloyds teams with Lumio to help couples manage shared finances
Lloyds Banking Group has teamed up with money app Lumio to take the stress out of shared financial management for couples. 0 Lumio's app allows couples or other people who manage a household budget together, to manage their finances in a shared space, track and automatically split shared expenses and save together towards common financial goals. It will be rolled out between May and August to selected Lloyds customers that jointly manage bills, who will be invited to trial the app on a first come first serve basis and enjoy free access to premium package Lumio Couples Pro, typically priced at £39.99 per year. Tamara van den Ban, customer propositions director at Lloyds Banking Group says: 'Lumio offers an easy way to manage money together, making every day financial tasks stress-free for people who need to do this together - whether that be couples, siblings or flatmates." Lumio's founder, Charlie Richardson adds: 'Modern couples have fallen into an account gap and Lumio provides these couples with a solution that makes it easier for them to spend independently but retain financial clarity and alignment as a couple.' More than 40,000 Lumio couples already use the app for joint oversight of shared spending, account activity and any shared balances. Both people can work towards shared financial goals, whilst keeping their accounts separate. Customers can also split expenses with a real-time IOU tracker, reducing any potential tension as both parties have access to an automated, accurate record of expenses and payments due. Lumio is a successful graduate of the Lloyds 2024 Launch Innovation programme, which provides participants with the opportunity to run a commercial experiment with the bank and the potential for further investment from Lloyds Fintech Investment Team. Says van den Ben: "We believe that collaboration is key to delivering exceptional services and enhancing our capabilities and we are excited for what our partnership with Lumio will bring to better address our customer needs.'

Lumio Vision 9 review: Does it live up to its ‘fast TV' claims?
You probably haven't heard of Lumio, and I wouldn't blame you one bit. The brand, whose name is a portmanteau of 'lumens' (a measure of brightness) and 'I/O' (Input Output), is a new face in the Indian consumer tech space. Behind Lumio is the less snazzy-sounding Circuit House Technologies, a motley crew of very familiar faces—mostly ex-Xiaomi folks who made Xiaomi TVs a household name—that have come together to do home entertainment right. Both their debutant products, the QLED Vision 7 and the flagship Mini-LED Vision 9, aim their crosshairs on the big guns in the segment, TVs that Lumio claims are part of a 'slow TV epidemic'—slow to boot, slow to navigate and slow to fire up apps. Yet, does Lumio shake things up enough to merit consideration against rather well-established brands? Is the 'India's fastest TV' claim legit? And is the Vision 9 ( ₹59,999) worth its flagship billing? You've come to the right place to find out. Design & Build Sturdy, well-built yet unassuming is how I'd describe the Vision 9, with no particular design flourishes to set its all-black plastic body apart, save for the subtle Lumio branding on the bottom bezel. Thin, barely-there bezels give the sole 55-inch variant an expansive, immersive feel, and although I felt the metal stand played it too safe design wise, it does its job keeping the TV steady when placed on a table. There's an almost-Jobsian level of detail to the design of the back panel, clean and uncluttered, a nice touch for something that's often overlooked and barely ever seen. Handier though is the well-labelled and easily accessible (even if wall mounted) port area, and the ports check the boxes as well, with 3 HDMI 2.1 (including 1 eARC), 3 USB, LAN, optical out, mini AV-in, audio out and even a port for cable input for those who haven't yet cut the cord. As bog-standard as the Lumio Vision 9 may look mounted on a wall, the brand has ensured you'll remember you're using a Lumio TV…via an altogether unlikely companion, the stubby and aptly named Minion remote. Finished in a premium gunmetal grey plastic, the stocky little remote is comfortable to hold and satisfyingly tactile with each button press. Also read: When quick commerce apps become your address book Display and Audio All the action's rightfully focused on the front, where the Vision 9's 4K QD-(Quantum Dot) Mini LED panel packed with 1920 mini-LEDs allows for very precise control over local dimming while yielding up to 900 nits peak of brightness in HDR content. What this translates into is deep, just-short-of-OLED black levels and impressive brightness levels to handle even the infamously dark Game of Thrones episodeThe Long Night with a sense of confidence. The way the TV managed to preserve detail well across the shadows and the highlights oftentimes led me to notice detail that I've missed in a previous viewing on another TV. While Dolby Vision and HDR10 support is a given, what is more impressive is how well-tuned the colors are, straight out of the box. The Vision 9 forgoes the vibrant, oversaturated tuning on many TVs and shows a fair amount of restraint when tastefully amplifying colors in the Movie mode preset. For most content on Netflix and Apple TV+, I found myself switching between a very colour accurate Movie and Standard mode, and the brightness and details make watching animated content and bright scenes a joy to watch, albeit sometimes with almost eye-searing levels of brightness. Coupled with 24W speakers in a quad driver setup (2 tweeters + 2 full range) and its unusually large 800mL acoustic cavities, the Vision 9 does well to offer an excellent cinema-in-a-box packagee—bass is competent, vocals are clear enough, and while the Dolby Atmos output won't replace a multi-channel home theater system, it's no pushover and won't have you searching for soundbars to pair with the TV. Gamers looking for a perfect companion for their PS5 will enjoy the HDR visuals and low latency, but the 60Hz capped refresh rate and no support for variable refresh rate will likely limit its appeal to casual gamers. Performance For someone with an ageing Android TV that's sadly only four years old, the Vision 9 didn't just surprise, it actually took me aback the first couple of times I used it. No more waiting for the TV to slowly start up after the power fluctuated or worse still, waiting for the TV to catch up as you navigated the content-filled wall of recommendations, the Vision 9 takes a somewhat smug-sounding BOSS processor, a faster Wi-Fi chipset and 3GB of snappy DDR4 memory to deliver a shot in the arm for the Google TV interface. Apps launch promptly, multitasking between apps is devoid of any lag and apps load content and get out of the way, so you spend less time browsing and navigating and more time watching. Does it solve the interminable decision making as to which show to actually watch? Sadly, that one's on you. With the performance headroom on the Vision 9, the idea is that the TV should continue to remain snappy even years down the line, something one couldn't test in the three weeks I had the TV with me. What I did notice is how Lumio has tried to distinguish itself with content curation via its TLDR app. The app pulls in live sports scores, match schedules and the latest chartbusters into a single intuitively designed dashboard, and I liked the direction the app's taken. Verdict Cue Avneet Kaur asking 'Bunty, tera TV slow hai kya?" and if the camera pans across to you nodding in agreement, the Lumio Vision 9 certainly does enough right to merit being shortlisted (and selected) in a sub-1-lakh segment, and punches well above its price point. The brand has launched with a 2-year comprehensive warranty and 300+ service centers covering a claimed 19,000+ PIN codes, which comes as a reassurance for customers unaccustomed to the new name.

Lumio Vision 7 QLED TV review: More than what meets the eye
The thing with modern, or should I just simply say smart, TVs is that performance has never been their strongest suite. They might boast the classiest designs, vibrant displays with perfect blacks and billions of colours, even sound that fills your living room with theatre-like quality, but somehow, inevitably, they all turn painfully slow. Whether it be a Rs 20,000 TV or Rs 5,00,000 one, the experience eventually deteriorates, and both are just going to stutter and lag through simple tasks like opening Netflix or switching between apps. This universal performance degradation represents one of the most frustrating paradoxes of modern technology. Operation Sindoor Armed forces maintaining strong vigil after Pak ceasefire breach: MEA Pakistan violates ceasefire: Loud explosions, sirens haunt J&K- what we know so far Behind the scenes of ceasefire: Calls from Pakistan, Washington We've accepted as normal that our TVs, despite being "smart," will inevitably grow slower and less responsive with each passing month. Unlike our phones or laptops where performance drives purchasing decisions, televisions have somehow escaped this scrutiny, with manufacturers focusing on picture quality and leaving the software experience as an afterthought. Now, there's whole debate on whom to blame. But, for now, let's just accept the fact that smart TVs are slow, and that's what piqued a small group of AV enthusiasts at Circuit House , who pondered the question: what if a TV doesn't have to slow down with age? What if the software and hardware could be designed from the ground up to maintain performance over years, not months? Their frustration with the status quo led to the creation of Lumio , tackling what the group believes is the "slow TV epidemic." To end that, they have created Vision TVs, calling it the "India's fastest smart TV,' with "BOSS processor" and "OMG RAM.' Well, the claim is bold, and something that definitely needs to be put to the test. But performance is just one piece of the puzzle. A TV's primary function remains visual — the quality of the panel, color accuracy, and brightness all matter tremendously when you're settling in for a movie night or binge-watching your favourite series. Lumio has even bolder claims here with what it's calling "DOPE display" and "Damn Good Sound' (full marks to people at Circuit House for gen-Zfying the boring marketing jargons). by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Invest $200 in Amazon without buying stocks to earn a second salary Marketsall Sign Up Undo So, could the Vision be the TV that most people need but don't know about? Or is it just another case of marketing jargon and overhyped specs? Or has Lumio actually addressed the core issues that plague our everyday viewing experience while excelling at everything that's fundamental to bingeing, making it the "Flagship killer of smart TVs"? I put my regular TV on the side, and gave its place to Vision, for two straight weeks, and this is how it went. I feel the need… the need for speed! It's rare you see people talk about a television's performance chops, but with claims so bold, it's important we first get to it. So, just minutes after unboxing and setting up the TV, which was quite a task (thanks to Google), I was eager to see if the Lumio 7 truly delivered on speed. Well, I would just say that I'm genuinely surprised to discover a smart TV could be this fluid. Because over the dozen TVs that I've tried in the past half-decade or so, each one has inevitably lagged immediately after setup. This one, so far, has shown no lags or stutters. But how so? The Lumio 7 runs Google TV, the same OS found on several other TVs, yet they don't show this characteristic, so what makes the Lumio 7 so quick? The speed can be credited to the faster BOSS processor, which basically is 2x ARM Cortex A55 and 2x Cortex A75. Plus, 3 gigs of RAM, that's one extra gigabyte than what's typically found on TVs and all the behind the scenes work that Lumio says it has done with Google. So, for a change, Google TV runs smoother. Not just the OS user interface, but the apps also open much quicker and run smoother than what I've experienced on TVs before. While there isn't an exact way to demonstrate this smoothness in a written piece, I can only tell you in words: it's so responsive that Google Assistant works without any hiccups. It listens to what I'm saying, and I get what I'm asking for, every single time, and it happens in a snap, which again, isn't the case on most TVs. Oh, and also, the TV powers on and off, in one click of power button. Colour, clarity, and almost no misses The Lumio Vision 7 's so-called "DOPE display" had me skeptical at first, marketing jargon rarely translates to real-world performance, yet the 55-inch QLED panel genuinely impresses with its out-of-box calibration. Firing up Dune: Part Two, the desert landscapes rendered with a surprising level of detail and dimensionality I hadn't expected at this price point. The claimed 114% DCI-P3 colour gamut coverage isn't just numbers on a spec sheet; it manifests in how the spice fields of Arrakis glow with an almost hypnotic orange-blue contrast that remains remarkably balanced rather than cartoonishly oversaturated. Where the panel does falter is during extremely dark scenes, the limitations of direct-lit QLED without local dimming zones become apparent as blacks shift to dark grey, particularly noticeable during the night attack sequences where shadow detail occasionally gets crushed. Moving beyond cinematic content, the Vision 7 handles everyday viewing with surprising competence. News channels and YouTube content appear crisp and clean, benefiting from what Lumio calls its "Clarity Engine" upscaling, a feature that, unlike competitors that seem to merely sharpen edges to fake detail, actually reconstructs lower resolution content intelligently. During IPL matches, grass textures and player jerseys maintain their vibrancy without the over saturation that plagues many budget QLEDs, though fast-moving cricket balls occasionally betray the panel's 60Hz limitation with slight motion blur. The anti-reflective coating deserves special mention—while not eliminating reflections entirely (no TV truly does), it diffuses light sources effectively enough that I could comfortably watch midday programming with sunlight streaming through nearby windows, a genuine quality-of-life improvement over similarly priced alternatives. HDR performance delivers mixed but mostly positive results. The panel's 400 nit peak brightness won't dazzle like premium offerings, yet Lumio's tone mapping demonstrates surprising sophistication. Streaming The Mandalorian in Dolby Vision, helmet reflections and lightsaber effects retain highlight detail rather than blowing out to featureless white blobs, suggesting thoughtful implementation rather than merely checking an HDR compatibility box. Colour volume in HDR content particularly impresses; the Vision 7 may not reach the retina-searing intensities of high-end displays, but what it does deliver feels accurately mapped to the panel's capabilities. The compromises become evident primarily during extreme contrast scenes; while watching 1917, the night-time sequence where Schofield navigates the ruins under the harsh, flickering light of flares reveals the panel's inability to simultaneously deliver deep blacks and bright highlights, resulting in a somewhat flattened visual experience compared to higher-end technologies. For gamers, the Vision 7's display brings both pleasant surprises and predictable limitations. Input lag measures an impressive 11.7ms in Game Mode—responsive enough for all but the most competitive players—while colour accuracy remains intact rather than sacrificed for speed as often happens with budget gaming displays. God of War Ragnarok showcases the panel's strengths with Atreus' red tunic popping against snowy landscapes without looking artificially enhanced, and environmental details maintaining clarity even during fast camera pans. The absence of 120Hz support will disappoint serious gamers, though at this price point such expectations would be unrealistic. Sound is half of the picture The Vision 7's sound capabilities challenge the notion that TV speakers serve merely as stopgaps until soundbar acquisition. Its 30W quad-driver setup, two tweeters partnered with two full-range units, delivers audio that makes external systems feel less urgently needed. As I was rewatching The Crown,every hushed royal conversation cut through with startling clarity while maintaining perfect harmony with the show's orchestral score. The system hits its ceiling with truly bombastic scenes, though; during the climactic battle in Avengers: Endgame, the cosmic clashes lacked that gut-punching rumble only dedicated subwoofers provide, a reminder that physics remains undefeated when squeezing bass from slim enclosures. Spatial processing via Dolby Atmos creates a convincing illusion of sound extending beyond physical boundaries, though naturally falling short of what ceiling-mounted speakers would achieve. Volume capabilities impressed equally, rarely needing to push beyond 25-30% in my medium-sized living room. What stands out most is the Vision 7's ability to maintain clarity during acoustically challenging moments. The tunnel chase sequence in No Time to Die, a sonic battleground of gunfire, screeching tires, and crucial dialogue, somehow keeps conversations intelligible without reaching for remote adjustments. Live concert footage of Hans Zimmer Live revealed the system's limitations, however, with midrange congestion during complex orchestral passages and that missing octave of bass leaving dramatic crescendos feeling somewhat incomplete. Thankfully, when you eventually crave that absent low-end extension, eARC support via HDMI 1 ensures seamless integration with external audio systems, providing a surprisingly capable interim solution that doesn't demand immediate upgrading, a rarity at this price point. There. Quality construction. The Lumio Vision 7 brings a clean, practical design that manages to avoid most budget TV pitfalls without trying too hard to impress. This 55-inch panel employs near-invisible bezels on three sides that effectively disappear during viewing, creating a more immersive experience than you might expect at this price point. What's notable is how the Vision 7 achieves its streamlined look while maintaining decent build quality. The all-plastic construction is standard for the category, but Lumio has used materials with sufficient heft to prevent the flimsy feel that plagues many competitors. Wall-mounted installation requires purchasing a separate bracket (a common omission in this segment), while the included tabletop stands provide adequate stability despite their simple design—though their 99cm spacing demands considerable furniture width that smaller entertainment units might struggle to accommodate. Turn the Vision 7 around and you'll find thoughtful touches in port placement and accessibility. Unlike many TVs that seem determined to make connection access unnecessarily difficult, Lumio positions all interfaces on the left side with a reflective backing that actually helps you see what you're connecting without requiring a flashlight. The three HDMI 2.1 ports (one with eARC) provide solid connectivity options, though the clustered USB ports create an awkward situation when multiple peripherals need connecting simultaneously. The detachable power cable offers practical flexibility during installation, though the absence of dedicated cable routing means your entertainment center might still suffer from visible wire clutter depending on placement. The Vision 7 handles surprisingly well during setup and positioning. At 13.5kg (with stands), it strikes a reasonable balance between substance and manageable weight, allowing for solo installation without excessive struggle. The chassis shows minimal flexing when handled—a small but telling indicator of decent build quality that separates it from the flimsiest budget options. Go-go-gadget remote! Often overlooked as mere accessories, remote controls frequently reveal a manufacturer's true attention to detail—and the aptly named "Minion" remote accompanying the Vision 7 speaks volumes about Lumio's priorities. This gunmetal grey controller eschews the plastic fantastic approach of budget competitors for something that feels genuinely considered. Its compact profile nestles naturally in the hand. The remote has a thoughtful tactile experience, certain buttons feature subtly elevated rubber textures that create intuitive navigation without requiring visual confirmation. This tactile way finding helps you avoid the typical mindless button-hunting experience into something almost pleasurable. While the absence of a customisable macro button proves occasionally limiting, especially for accessing region-specific streaming services lacking dedicated shortcuts, the inclusion of both IR and Bluetooth connectivity ensures responsive operation regardless of pointing angle. The dedicated TLDR button feels like a curious commitment of prime remote real estate to a single app, but there's a purpose to it. Simple is better While Lumio has been hyping up its television performance chops, the TLDR app has to be one of its most ambitious attempts to differentiate itself in the crowded smart TV ecosystem. This proprietary content discovery platform takes a fundamentally different approach from the algorithmic recommendations that dominate most streaming interfaces. Rather than overwhelming users with endless rows of content suggestions, TLDR presents a refreshingly focused vertical-scrolling interface with horizontal content cards that emphasise quality over quantity. The current implementation primarily highlights Sports and Music categories, with clean typography and intuitive navigation that feels purposeful rather than cluttered. Sports fans will appreciate how match schedules, live scores, and highlights are seamlessly integrated, though the current limitation to just IPL, EPL and a handful of other leagues reveals the platform's early stage development. The music discovery section shows similar promise with curated playlists and trending tracks, though navigation between these different content verticals occasionally requires more taps than ideal, especially when searching for specific teams or artists. The integration feels substantially more polished than the half-baked proprietary apps that often ship with budget TVs, suggesting genuine investment rather than box-checking. That said, TLDR's long-term utility remains somewhat questionable until Lumio expands beyond its initial content categories. The dedicated remote button offers convenient access but feels premature for an app still building its feature set, especially when that space could have been used for a customisable shortcut to compensate for missing streaming service buttons. TLDR for the Lumio Vision 7 The Lumio Vision 7 shatters the resigned acceptance we've developed toward sluggish smart TVs. Starting at Rs 29,999 a, this QLED offering delivers what countless other manufacturers have somehow deemed impossible: a wholesome user experience. It feels like someone finally bothered to ask what people actually want from their TVs. Yes, flashy marketing terms like "BOSS processor" and "DOPE display" initially raised my skepticism, but after spending two weeks with this TV, they do live up to their names, and it isn't just fancy specs but the Lumio is playing on how the whole package comes together. The QLED panel delivers vibrant colours and sharp details that hold up well for movies and sports alike, though sit too far off-center and you'll notice colours washing out—a reminder you're not playing with OLED money here. Dark scenes reveal another limitation: blacks look more dark grey than true black, especially noticeable during night scenes where shadow details sometimes get lost in the murk. Still, the display handles visual content with surprising competence, preserving highlights without the blinding overexposure cheaper TVs often default to. The interface doesn't make you wait, apps open when you click them, and Google Assistant actually responds when called, small victories that shouldn't feel revolutionary but somehow do. The sound system delivers unexpectedly clear dialogue and decent spatial effects, though action scenes remind you there's only so much bass tiny speakers can muster. The remote deserves special mention, its textured buttons and solid feel make the daily ritual of finding something to watch less irritating, even if that dedicated TLDR button seems like an odd choice for prime real estate when the app itself still needs more content. Practical touches like side-mounted ports you can actually see without a flashlight and a clean design with minimal bezels show attention to what matters, though those wide-set stands (99cm apart) might not fit narrower TV cabinets. For too long, we've judged TVs almost exclusively on panel technology while accepting compromises in other areas. The Lumio Vision 7 presents a more balanced package without sacrificing picture quality, offering a viewing experience enhanced by software — sounds exactly like what smart TVs should have been. The Vision 7 isn't trying to reinvent television, it simply refuses to accept that affordable TVs must inevitably lag and stutter through basic tasks. In a market flooded with alternatives from Xiaomi , TCL, and Hisense all battling over spec sheets, Lumio's focus on the complete user experience creates a TV that just works, perhaps the most refreshing feature of all. With exclusive availability through Amazon and warranty coverage across 19,000+ pin codes, Lumio addresses the typical new-brand service concerns head-on. This thoughtful approach to both product and support makes the Lumio Vision 7 a compelling for anyone seeking a genuinely well-rounded viewing experience without breaking the bank.

Lumio Vision 7 QLED TV Tackles A Core Issue Without Any Major Trade-Offs
Lumio Vision 7 QLED TV Lumio Have you experienced your smart TV slowing down over time, which was already slow to turn on to begin with? Many consumers fix this issue by purchasing an Apple TV or an Amazon Fire TV Stick. But Circuit House Technologies' Lumio brand is aiming to solve this issue out of the box. The company is debuting with two TV models – Vision 7 and Vision 9 in India. The Lumio Vision 7 comes in 43-inch, 50-inch, and 55-inch sizes with 4K resolution, whereas the Vision 9 offers a 55-inch 4K mini-LED panel. I've been using the 55-inch Vision 7 (INR 39,999) for over a week, and while Lumio focuses on solving a core performance issue, it does so without compromising the essential TV experience. Lumio Vision 7 QLED TV Prakhar Khanna Many TVs in this price range either compromise on the panel tuning or on sound, but the Vision 7 is different. It features a QLED panel with 4K resolution and up to 400 nits of peak brightness. For my content consumption experience, I watched Cha Cha Real Smooth on Apple TV, Spider-Man: Far From Home on Netflix, and IPL matches on JioStar. The Lumio Vision 7 offers nine Picture Modes to personalize your viewing experience: Standard, Dynamic, Movie, ECO, Gentle, Vivid, Sport, Game, and Personal, which you can tune to your liking. In Dolby Vision content, like on Apple TV, you get Dolby Vision Dark, Dolby Vision Bright, and Dolby Vision Game. Lumio has tuned the Vision 7's panel very well. The HDR on Spider-Man was great without being overblown (which can be an issue on several low-quality TV panels). The bright areas retained details, which made for a captivating viewing experience. I set it to a warmer tone in Movie mode, which I prefer over Standard for videos due to my room's warm lighting. Though I preferred watching IPL matches in the Standard mode. As for Dolby Vision modes, the Dolby Vision Dark setting is best suited if you're watching movies with no lights on. It is slightly dimmer than the Bright preset, which is better suited for the day. It is an excellent panel to consume HDR content, aided by clear and loud sound. You don't get a thrusting bass in action scenes, but these are very good speakers for a TV. The dialogues were clear without getting muffled. It can get louder than expected, and I found myself getting room-filling sound at the 20–25 volume mark. Lumio Vision 7 QLED TV Prakhar Khanna Most budget and mid-range TVs take too long to switch on and load apps. It can be a snoozefest and I've missed watching crucial deliveries in live cricket matches because I was waiting for my TV to load. The Lumio Vision 7 is a refreshing experience in that regard, thanks to 3GB of DDR4 RAM and a faster processor. It runs a familiar Google TV UI, but in a faster form. The Vision 7 takes more than 30 seconds to turn on, but it's quicker than a 1-minute wait on other TVs. The Lumio Vision 7 offers a snappy navigation experience. It is responsive and loads apps faster (including the Apple TV app for Android). You might not appreciate it until you use it, because we're used to long loading times on TVs. Lumio has also added a first-party app called TLDR, which is a custom dashboard offering a new approach to content discovery. It displays trending music and sports scores in a three-column layout. You can't personalize it yet, but I'd prefer for Lumio to let me add my favorite teams and musicians so their latest scores or work is on top in TLDR. Lumio Vision 7 QLED TV remote Prakhar Khanna The Lumio Vision 7 offers 3x USB ports, an optical port, an ethernet port, and 3x HDMI 2.1 ports, with one supporting eARC to connect a soundbar. These are easy to reach, situated on the left side (from your view when sitting opposite the TV). The stands are solid, and I had no issue setting them up. As for the remote, it's built out of plastic but has a grey finish. It is light and includes hotkeys for Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, and TLDR. Other buttons include volume rockers, a mute button, Google Assistant, and more. It looks a bit cluttered, but I'd rather have buttons than a minimalist layout just for sleekness. Lumio's remote is functional, ergonomic, and holds all the buttons you might need. The Lumio Vision 7 QLED TV starts at INR 29,999 for the 43-inch size in India. It goes up to INR 39,999 for the 55-inch model, and the 50-inch option sits in the middle at INR 34,999. The mini-LED-equipped Lumio Vision 9 comes in a single 55-inch model for INR 59,999. The Lumio Vision TV lineup will be available for pre-order starting April 23 through Amazon India's website. You can get two years of comprehensive warranty and another year of extended warranty if you pre-order one till April 30. As for after-sales service, the brand promises service through a network of over 300 service centres covering 19,000 pin codes in India.
