It comes with a large, 40-inch, Full HD panel and powerful, 48W speakers. These are, in fact, some of the most powerful speakers you can get in this price range and you get Dolby Digital Plus support on top of that.

What’s more surprising is that despite the low price, these TVs manage to deliver excellent build quality, image quality, even aesthetically pleasing bezel-less designs, and stunning sound quality in that budget. The bar for budget Smart TVs has been raised, and how!
