Xiaomi Mi TV 4A Series Start Getting Android TV 9.0 Update The Mi TV 4A series was the first series of Smart TVs launched by Xiaomi in India back in February 2018 alongside the Redmi Note 5 Pro smartphone. The Mi TV 4A 55-inch model priced at Rs 39,999 was the first Smart TV with PatchWall UI to make its debut in India. Later on, Xiaomi launched two new models in the same series with 32-inch and 43-inch screen sizes. Both ran the same AOSP build with PatchWall UI on top. At the Mi TV 4A Pro series launch in September 2018, Xiaomi promised that it would upgrade the Mi TV 4A models to Android TV since the 4A Pro series came out with Android TV 8.0 platform. Xiaomi said that the Mi TV 4A models would get the much-awaited Android TV update in early 2019, some unexpected issues delayed the update. Nevertheless, the update is now being rolled out to 32-inch and 43-inch models of the Mi TV 4A series. Xiaomi did not release the update to Mi TV 4A 55-inch model, but we’re expecting the company to start the rollout to its first premium Smart TV very soon. After the Mi TV 4A series, all the Xiaomi Smart TVs ran Android TV out of the box and they’re already upgraded to Android TV 9.0 platform in India.
