About Millet TV 2S:
Compared with Xiaomi’s previous products, Xiaomi TV 2S’s picture quality configuration has indeed been significantly higher by several orders of magnitude. Perhaps this is also an important reason why Xiaomi dared to compare it with brands such as Sony and Samsung.
Xiaomi's 49-inch 4K TV claimed to use Samsung's wide color gamut panel, NTSC color gamut can reach more than 85%. In addition, a light guide plate with a high-precision light-leakage prevention process is used, and the brightness uniformity and light leakage control are more excellent. In addition, this machine is also equipped with dynamic backlight control technology, which also plays an important role in enhancing the contrast performance of the image.
In addition, Xiaomi TV 2S also claimed to carry the "fourth-generation ultra-clear image quality engine MACE-Pro4 UC+", which includes 12 image enhancement techniques and 10 enhancement techniques. The specific effects of these technologies are described in detail on Xiaomi’s official website.
About Sony 49X8300C:
The X8300C is the most entry-level product in Sony's 4K TV line this year. In addition to the 49-inch model mentioned by Xiaomi, the series also has a 43-inch specification.
Although the 49X8300C is an entry-level 4K TV in Sony's product planning, its configuration can be considered as a category of high-end products. Because it is equipped with Sony's high-end models consistent with the "X1 4K image processing chip", "4K X-Realtiy sharp image processing engine Pro" two signature technology, and Motionflow XR800 speed drive technology. Compared with high-end models, the X8300C lacks dynamic backlight control technology such as sophisticated backlight control, and does not carry Sony's "Terry charm" technology. The role of the former is to enhance the dynamic contrast of the picture; the latter is the wide color gamut technology unique to Sony's high-end televisions, which can make its color performance reach the effect of quantum dot TV.
About Samsung UA48JU6800JXXZ
The Samsung UA48JU6800JXXZ is a 48-inch standard curved LCD TV that is an entry-level 4K surface product. It is equipped with Samsung's own UHD core image engine, in addition to the 4K signal can be optimized, the main role is to 1080P or lower resolution signal processing times to 4K, to achieve a better picture. In addition, this TV is also equipped with intelligent dynamic backlight control technology, so that the picture has a better contrast performance.
All three televisions use the factory default settings, and Samsung and Sony both use the standard image mode and turn off the ambient light auto-adjustment function. Millet TV 2S has default settings as there is no image mode selectable, and dynamic backlight option is enabled.

Still talking about the contrast that everyone pays most attention to. All three machines use the factory default settings. Samsung and Sony all have the standard image mode. Xiaomi uses the factory default settings because it has no image mode options, and also enables dynamic backlight control.

Millet TV 2S/Samsung/Sony Comparison of Static Picture Quality
Millet TV 2S has the best light leakage control, and Samsung actually does a pretty good job, compared with Sony's most general performance. However, Xiaomi exaggerated his opponent's performance on the official website. We modified the shooting parameters so that the screen shots were basically consistent with the actual results we saw in the dark environment.

Relatively speaking, when these three TVs are displayed as a 4K point-to-point display on a PC monitor, the difference in sharpness is more obvious. This is the display effect of Xiaomi TV 2S. The font is very sharp and clear.

In terms of static resolution, whether the three TVs are used as PC monitors or 4K TV standard definition test signals, there is actually no order of magnitude difference in actual performance. Of course, the peer-to-peer display performance of Xiaomi TV 2S is indeed better, but this advantage will only stand out when it is used as a monitor and is very close to the distance. In most other application modes, consumers cannot get from it. income.

Then look at the contrast of color performance. Due to the adoption of the wide color gamut panel, the color of the millet TV 2S is relatively more vivid and rich. On the left is the Samsung UA48JU6800JXXZ, in the middle is the millet TV 2S, and on the right is the Sony 49X8300C.

Blue performance contrast. Due to the limitations of the screen camera, it does not accurately reflect the subtle differences between these three TV blues. Millet's color is the most fullest, the most attractive at first sight, but after comparison, it will find that its blue color is not as accurate as Samsung and Sony. It is an exaggerated effect. Sony's light leakage problem can still be found when the screen is relatively clear of black, but it is not too serious.

When used as a 4K monitor, the fonts of the Xiaomi TV 2S are more sharp and clear. When Sony is used as a monitor, although the definition of the font is slightly lower, the brightness and color temperature of the picture are optimized and the actual viewing comfort is the best. Samsung's performance is relatively balanced.
In terms of color performance, Samsung and Xiaomi TV 2S adopt the same type of LCD panel, and the styles of certain colors are very close, such as blue and yellow. But in most cases, Samsung's color performance is closer to Sony, yellowish green tone some. While millet TV 2S still has the best color vividness when displaying still images, but it is still an old problem. Colors are too bright and result in poor accuracy, and often there are obvious distortions.
In the end, it is still necessary to mention the problem of light leakage. Of the three machines, only Sony had a significant problem of light leakage. However, compared with Xiao Mi’s published maps on the official website, we actually saw no serious problems as described by Xiao Mi. Moreover, in the subsequent link of the motion picture display effect, Sony's light leakage problem is even more difficult to detect.
Dynamic display contrast
In the previous comparison, although Xiaomi TV 2S showed better light leakage, the effect when playing back video signals was not satisfactory. With the entry of Samsung's entry-level 4K TV, what will happen to the ordering between them?

Next is a comparison of the effects of the motion picture display. In the previous comparison between the Xiaomi TV 2S and the Sony 49X8300C, Xiaomi TV's 2S performance clearly lost to Sony. This time, it is a comparison of the same station of the three products, and the same settings as the previous still images have not been modified.

(Samsung UA48JU6800JXXZ on the left, Millet TV 2S in the middle, Sony 49X8300C on the right)
When playing back dynamic images, especially non-4K signals, the TV's image engine is very important, because they are responsible for strengthening the signal, allowing its sharpness, contrast, etc. to adapt to the 4K TV's high-definition panel. This part has always been the traditional strength of Japanese color TV sets. The actual display effect also proves this: Regardless of the expressiveness, texture, and overall contrast of the screen details, Sony is the best of the three, followed by Samsung, and Xiaomi. Can only be ranked last.

The last item is still a comparison of the smoothness of the picture. Even if the Sony X8300C is a big dynamic picture, it can still maintain a good fluency and a smooth sense of the picture; Samsung UA48JU6800JXXZ's performance is slightly inferior to Sony's, occasionally there will be a sense of Caton in the picture. The millet TV 2S has almost no optimization at all, and the sense of frustration in the picture is very obvious. Even in some common small-to-medium-scale dynamic pictures in TV dramas, the picture can still feel the setback.
to sum up
The price difference between the three TVs is actually very large, millet TV 2S basic models for the 2999 yuan, Samsung UA48JU6800JXXZ the price of 5,000 yuan grade, and Sony 49X8300C's price reached 7000 yuan grade. Therefore, the overall performance of Sony is not surprising. Aside from the other few fields that Xiaomi claimed to be talking about, in terms of the most basic and core picture quality of TVs, it is necessary to adopt a third-party general-purpose image engine, a small amount of technical improvement measures, and strict control over costs. On the basis of this, we must also surpass traditional color TV companies that are known for their quality in a short period of time. In fact, the probability is really low. Therefore, in this field that requires "real materials", we also hope that the latecomers such as Xiaomi will do more to build some solid ground.
This time we will add a new Samsung product: UA48JU6800JXXZ. This TV is not only one of Xiaomi’s products for comparison at the press conference, but also uses the “Samsung LCD Panel†that is the same as Xiaomi TV 2S. Therefore, its actual image quality performance is also very promising.

Millet TV 2S/Samsung/Sony Comparison of Static Picture Quality
In terms of static resolution, whether the three TVs are used as PC monitors or 4K TV standard definition test signals, there is actually no order of magnitude difference in actual performance. Of course, the peer-to-peer display performance of Xiaomi TV 2S is indeed better, but this advantage will only stand out when it is used as a monitor and is very close to the distance. In most other application modes, consumers cannot get from it. income.
Millet TV 2S/Samsung/Sony Comparison of Static Picture Quality
Then look at the contrast of color performance. Due to the adoption of the wide color gamut panel, the color of the millet TV 2S is relatively more vivid and rich. On the left is the Samsung UA48JU6800JXXZ, in the middle is the millet TV 2S, and on the right is the Sony 49X8300C.

Millet TV 2S/Samsung/Sony Comparison of Static Picture Quality
Blue performance contrast. Due to the limitations of the screen camera, it does not accurately reflect the subtle differences between these three TV blues. Millet's color is the most fullest, the most attractive at first sight, but after comparison, it will find that its blue color is not as accurate as Samsung and Sony. It is an exaggerated effect. Sony's light leakage problem can still be found when the screen is relatively clear of black, but it is not too serious.

When used as a 4K monitor, the fonts of the Xiaomi TV 2S are more sharp and clear. When Sony is used as a monitor, although the definition of the font is slightly lower, the brightness and color temperature of the picture are optimized and the actual viewing comfort is the best. Samsung's performance is relatively balanced.
In terms of color performance, Samsung and Xiaomi TV 2S adopt the same type of LCD panel, and the styles of certain colors are very close, such as blue and yellow. But in most cases, Samsung's color performance is closer to Sony, yellowish green tone some. While millet TV 2S still has the best color vividness when displaying still images, but it is still an old problem. Colors are too bright and result in poor accuracy, and often there are obvious distortions.
In the end, it is still necessary to mention the problem of light leakage. Of the three machines, only Sony had a significant problem of light leakage. However, compared with Xiao Mi’s published maps on the official website, we actually saw no serious problems as described by Xiao Mi. Moreover, in the subsequent link of the motion picture display effect, Sony's light leakage problem is even more difficult to detect.
Dynamic display contrast
In the previous comparison, although Xiaomi TV 2S showed better light leakage, the effect when playing back video signals was not satisfactory. With the entry of Samsung's entry-level 4K TV, what will happen to the ordering between them?

Next is a comparison of the effects of the motion picture display. In the previous comparison between the Xiaomi TV 2S and the Sony 49X8300C, Xiaomi TV's 2S performance clearly lost to Sony. This time, it is a comparison of the same station of the three products, and the same settings as the previous still images have not been modified.

When playing back dynamic images, especially non-4K signals, the TV's image engine is very important, because they are responsible for strengthening the signal, allowing its sharpness, contrast, etc. to adapt to the 4K TV's high-definition panel. This part has always been the traditional strength of Japanese color TV sets. The actual display effect also proves this: Regardless of the expressiveness, texture, and overall contrast of the screen details, Sony is the best of the three, followed by Samsung, and Xiaomi. Can only be ranked last.

The last item is still a comparison of the smoothness of the picture. Even if the Sony X8300C is a big dynamic picture, it can still maintain a good fluency and a smooth sense of the picture; Samsung UA48JU6800JXXZ's performance is slightly inferior to Sony's, occasionally there will be a sense of Caton in the picture. The millet TV 2S has almost no optimization at all, and the sense of frustration in the picture is very obvious. Even in some common small-to-medium-scale dynamic pictures in TV dramas, the picture can still feel the setback.
to sum up
The price difference between the three TVs is actually very large, millet TV 2S basic models for the 2999 yuan, Samsung UA48JU6800JXXZ the price of 5,000 yuan grade, and Sony 49X8300C's price reached 7000 yuan grade. Therefore, the overall performance of Sony is not surprising. Aside from the other few fields that Xiaomi claimed to be talking about, in terms of the most basic and core picture quality of TVs, it is necessary to adopt a third-party general-purpose image engine, a small amount of technical improvement measures, and strict control over costs. On the basis of this, we must also surpass traditional color TV companies that are known for their quality in a short period of time. In fact, the probability is really low. Therefore, in this field that requires "real materials", we also hope that the latecomers such as Xiaomi will do more to build some solid ground.
