Large-sized smart televisions are usually sold at a high price, especially if they use panels such as OLED or Mini-LED. At 65 inches and above, it is not surprising to see a smart television with a price tag exceeding RM10 thousand.
Xiaomi, a leading technology brand from China, has recently introduced the Xiaomi TV S Pro Mini LED 2026 smart television series which has just entered the local market. We had the opportunity to review this smart television, and here is our opinion about it.

The Xiaomi TV S Pro QD-Mini LED 75 smart television uses a QD Mini LED display panel with 4K resolution that combines 704-zone backlighting capabilities that are better than QLED panels, and are much brighter than OLED but still promise the most accurate color reproduction possible.
A high brightness value of 1700 nits also helps this display be used in a variety of lighting situations, whether in a dark private cinema room or a living room with plenty of natural light sources. The panel used also comes with physical characteristics that help reduce glare reflection issues on the screen surface.
If you are a gamer, this television also comes with a 144Hz refresh rate that shows smooth frame rates when you play your favorite games regardless of your gaming console or gaming computer.
In terms of audio, this television houses two 15W speakers that come with Dolby Atmos technology support and are tuned with Harman AudioEFX audio technology for a high-quality audio listening experience.
This television also houses the Google TV operating system, and in our experience using this television, will download a few selected applications such as YouTube, Netflix and several other streaming applications when you first connect this television to the internet network.
In terms of plug support, it comes with a fairly large choice of plugs, including three HDMI 2.1 plugs, where the first and second plugs support 4K 144Hz resolution and the second plug can be used to connect this television to speakers that support HDMI eArc connections for even better audio quality.
Other plugs present include an optical audio connection (S-PDIF), a 3.5mm audio plug, an Ethernet plug for wired internet connections and a plug for terrestrial television broadcasts.
User Experience
Starting with the unboxing and installation process, the Xiaomi TV S Pro QD-Mini LED 75 television has a fairly large size, but is still easy to install by yourself or with the help of a friend.
The initial setup of this television is also quite easy. Once it's installed, you just need to connect it to an internet connection, and the Google TV operating system will automatically download all the necessary updates.
One strange thing I noticed is that Google TV will ask if you want to download certain apps, but regardless of your choice, it seems to download all the apps offered by default, and you'll have to wait a little while to use the television.
If you're the type who likes to cast content from your smart device to the television display, the Xiaomi TV S Pro QD-Mini LED supports a number of content casting features, including Google Cast, Miracast and Apple AirPlay which means that no matter what device platform you're using, it will be supported by this television without any problems.
From the point of view of using the television, I can say that the video processing quality on this television is good enough to be used in various types of lighting, whether in the dark or in a room illuminated by lamps. Thanks to the Xiaomi Visual Engine Pro function, this television is smart enough to adjust the screen's brightness output level for good picture quality.
The anti-glare feature on this television is also quite good in my opinion, but sometimes light reflections can still be seen, especially light reflections from light bulbs, or when watching content in a bright room. But other than that, my viewing experience was not very impressed with the glare issue.
The viewing and gaming quality on this television is also very good for me. The ability to process 94 percent of the DCI-P3 color gamut is seen to help in video processing and video games with the use of this PD Mini-LED panel allowing content to be watched from a fairly large angle in front of the television.
Even so, I still have a few complaints about this television. There have been several times that I noticed that the ghosting issue became a problem in scenes with a lot of action and movement.
Not only that, when the scene changes from a dark scene to a bright one quickly, the dynamic backlight of this television will sometimes “get confused” and cause the display to become too bright before it corrects itself.
Apart from that, the Dolby Vision modes (Bright, Dark and Filmmaker) also seem to only modify the display brightness value, and there is not much other difference in terms of color temperature. This is honestly not a big issue, but if you expect a big difference between these modes, you may be disappointed.
But I will also say that the “intelligence” of this television also comes through changing the picture mode options that will change depending on the content. The Netflix application for example will show the Dolby Vision mode, while if you play a game on a console, the settings menu will change to the HDR mode suitable for use.
The audio quality of the two 15W speakers built into this television is also in my opinion quite loud and deep, but if you want to load a surround sound audio system on this television, as I said before, this television also supports HDMI eArc connection for a much more powerful sound system.
This television remote control also comes with shortcut buttons for popular streaming applications such as YouTube, Prime, Netflix and Xiaomi TV+. One of these shortcut buttons can also be set to be a shortcut to another of your favorite applications.
Like many other modern television remotes, this remote also has a built-in voice search feature, which allows you to access various applications and other television functions quickly and easily.
