As Xiaomi already claimed it a few times, the Xiaomi Mi TV 4 is the thinnest LED smart TV available right now. The Mi TV 4 is 4.9 mm thick at the thinnest part of the TV except for the part where the ports and other hardware are provided. There are two different stands which come inside the box, and these two needed to be screwed at the back.

The main power cable goes at the back; the I/O ports are available on the sides and all the other inputs including the “cable in” port. The speakers are placed in a way that the sound elevates to the ceiling and bounce back to create a surround effect.
