Xiaomi has its fingers completely in a variety of tech pies, and for its tenth anniversary, the Chinese tech giant announced a swathe of brand-new products, consisting of the Mi 10 Ultra flagship smartphone and … a totally transparent television.
Despite having a quite significant novelty aspect, the Xiaomi Mi TV LUX OLED Transparent Edition is actually going to be offered to consumers in China from August 16, where itll cost a cool ¥ 49,999 (roughly $7,200/ ₤ 5,500/ AU$ 10,000).
As its title (and transcendental product video) suggests, you can translucent the television both when its turned off and when its showing material, with Xiaomi declaring that the “images appear to be suspended in the air”.
Outside of its star function, the Transparent Edition of the Mi TV LUX sports a 55-inch OLED panel, 120Hz refresh rate, 93% DCI-P3 color support, and “150000:1 fixed contrast ratio and a limitless vibrant contrast ratio”.
Of course, all of these specs are just as remarkable as the televisions environment enables– the furnishings, walls and other objects you place behind it will no doubt have an impact on its clarity, as will the rooms lighting circumstance.
While theres no word yet on worldwide availability (and theres every chance that it wont leave the Asian market), the truth that a TV with transparent abilities is at a point where it can be mass-produced is a big step forward for the entirely needed technology.
