On July 16th, Xiaomi TV's 2S was equipped with first-class, excellent picture quality and exquisite craftsmanship. It was only 2,999 yuan for the new millet communication conference, and the 48-inch 4K TV less than 3,000 yuan was really stunned by the audience. Of course, compared with the millet TV 2 49 inches, the millet TV 2S has enough advantages, but it has cut off the 3D function. This decision is quite bold. It is consistent with Xiaomi's consistent product strategy - quietly killing those features that are too sloppy for most people, so that the cost of the product can really drop. But it will inevitably be a pity for 3D movie lovers.
Millet TV 2S uses its own backlight technology on the screen. The effect is more uniform backlight. The black screen under dark light is darker and there is almost no visible light leakage at the edge of the screen. This is also its biggest technical highlight. The other major change in the 2S is the appearance. The two-stage design makes the upper part of the fuselage even thinner.
Here we talk about some differences between the millet TV 2S and the 49-inch version of the millet TV 2:
A. Small plug, big difference
At the press conference, Lei Jun spent a long time introducing this tiny power plug (left). In fact, it can be seen at a glance that the plug of the Xiaomi TV 2S is much higher than the plug of a general TV. If you put the TV on the wall, you can really make the power cord closer to the wall and save some space.
B. The base is easier to install
The new base (bracket) is more convenient to install, insert it directly into the bottom hole and screw it in place.
The previous base was difficult for one person to complete the installation.
Millet gave a screwdriver for loading and unloading the bracket, ensuring that it can be installed by unpacking, which is conscience.
C. Thickness, only half thin
If you remember the warm-up poster titled "PK," it would be a little disappointing to see the real machine.
There are two pitfalls in the thinness of the millet TV 2S. First of all, it adds a layer of bright metal to the border (ours is light green). The poster only photographed this layer of metal instead of the real border;
Secondly, this TV adopts an obvious two-stage design. The upper part is made of a metal back cover, thin, and the lower half is still a plastic back cover, thick.
D. Independent speaker
If you are willing to add 1,000 pieces, buy the home theater version of Millet TV 2S. Its wireless subwoofer is the latest "garbage bin," the same as the 55-inch home theater. The 49-inch is still equipped with an old square subwoofer.
Millet TV 2S subtraction:
1.3D function disappears
On this issue, the reporter interviewed two people in the television industry. One said "TV 3D is not really used, but it is a gimmick." Another told us "If you cut off 3D functions, the cost of the display panel can be reduced by 30 to 50. Yuan "(The picture shows the 3D setting of the 49-inch millet TV 2).
2. Touch switch change button
The 49-inch millet TV 2 uses a touch switch to recall system setup options such as 3D settings. The 48-inch millet TV 2S has been replaced with a big button. The remote control must be used to recall the system settings. Of course, it does not support 3D.
3. Interface saves a MicroSD card slot
In terms of interfaces, in addition to cutting off the MicroSD card slot, millet TV 2S did not change, including the interface layout is the same.
4. Remote control Bluetooth change infrared
Millet TV has two types of remote control, one is a traditional infrared remote control (as shown above), and the other is a Bluetooth remote control. The appearance of the two is the same, but there is a Bluetooth logo on the Bluetooth remote control.
Millet TV 2S uses infrared remote control, anti-blocking ability than Bluetooth, the cost should be lower.
5. The ambient backlight adjustment function disappears
Millet TV 2S cut down the environmental backlight adjustment function. According to Xiaomi TV staff, the function implemented by the software is difficult to be perfect, and sometimes the user is confused, so the new TV has removed this function. Based on this, we speculated that the ambient light sensor should also be omitted. The previous generation sensor was located in the bottom touch operation area.
to sum up
How to subduct products? Millet TV 2S is a role model. On the one hand, it pursued breakthroughs in appearance and craft details, as well as computing performance and image quality performance. On the other hand, it drastically cut away the relatively insensible parts of the user.
Cutting down the cost of 3D display, Bluetooth remote control, and touch switches, etc., has been used for more important appearance, performance and picture quality. The "low price" of Xiaomi TV 2S is justified.
