A: Your TV can turn on other devices via HDMI. For example a receiver.

Q: While watching the channels, a black screen appears with the image of hdmi and the bottom is an inscription in English, so the search for hdmi and after 2 seconds the black screen disappears and the tricolor view continues. What is the problem ???
A: On some devices, the HDMI connector is quite “tight”, and since it has one contact that is somewhat “behind” everyone else (and this is power), it may happen that just a half millimeter of the plug is not sufficiently open. By the way, I also encountered this on the "satellite" but on the "Continental" one. Before that, I changed 3 cables, the result is zero! And then I just got the connector and all the HDMI cables were “fixed”.

Q: When watching many videos (both movies and cartoons), is there a feeling that it is being played a little faster than necessary?
A: This effect can be observed due to the work of the built-in "floating" image. The setting responsible for disabling this effect is here:
Mi Settings>Sound & Display>DISPLAY section>Hieroglyphs at the very bottom>OFF

The difference between 4c and 4a is:
- more powerful speakers
- thinner frames
- foot design
- the location of the ports to enter the image, they are now located on the side, not the back, which is more convenient when the TV hangs on the wall
- matrices in TV are put the same as in a, and there and there in different batches of different manufacturers

Shops where you can buy TV:
- the first and easiest option - just find on Avito, go, see and buy, will be cheaper. Private traders who sell TV can be found a lot.
- Aliexpress and Gearbest, you can save a lot, I received a whole TV and only 43 inches, it happened that people came broken.There are risks.More than 43 inches of regular TV delivery do not carry TV, larger diagonals can be brought by the transport company, buy TV through an intermediary in China.
- Domestic stores from search engines ru-mi.com, expensive, also came broken TV, but returned, 6 months warranty. You can also find many other stores. Remember that with proper inspection, as well as issuing all checks, any troubles are solved in favor of the consumer.

Be careful when shopping in this store, they have not delivered a single TV set, although people ordered in early January. Komenty disgruntled tinder in the VC.

I made an order through PayPal. 180 days to argue.

Was it a real order (in the payment it was indicated to whom and for what) or just payment to the paypal account? If the second, then there is no protection

[fadetoblack]

Something you care about me)
PayPal received a letter immediately after the payment, which indicates the timing of the opening of the dispute

[zampoteh73rus]

Similarly.

[zavr13]

fadetoblack, zampoteh73rus,
I didn’t understand what you have, money transfer (they just transferred the amount to another account and that's it) or all the same payment on the account (when ordering through the seller’s website it was redirected to paypal or the seller billed you for payment, where it’s clear that you buy telly, not popcorn)

[zampoteh73rus]

The first Russian-language review of Xiaomi Mi TV 4A (43, 49 and 55 inches)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VryyTREGcG4

[557885785]

Hello guys. Can anyone tell me if these televisions have at least English?

[Bilini]

557885785,Of course there is ... Also through startsettings.apk

[Killsleep]

And who ordered the telly from China? How are they, when compared with televisions from famous brands?

[masha006]

Guys, I still watch this TV, and my hands itch to buy. Just in a new apartment. Maybe someone ordered an invalid link from the site? So far, out of all online stores, I have only found them, the rest are not credible.

[Killsleep]

Mashaha6 @ 12.04.17, 13:51

So far from all online stores

Can be ordered from off. Xiaomi site through TC Energy, I think the train is better. In this case, ask them to crate and insurance.

[Karas28]

Guys, tell me, what kind of sites do you have such "Official"?)))) Can you credit? If there is a desire, I will help to order to buy, etc. Any xiaomi equipment from the factory, no outbursts, etc. If you wish, please contact HP, I am in the Far East, China across the river, I myself want to order xiaomi 4 a 55 inches soon.

[zampoteh73rus]

Karas28, good lure)

[Karas28]

What exactly? I'm not going to take anything into my pocket, did I really say something about paying me or what? Where have you seen the advertisement of a store or website or group or left phone numbers? Why did you blur this word here? "lure" is where you buy yourself a remanufactured technique from outbid, and then whine on such sites about marriages, etc. 80% of all fakes in China account for xiaomi.

The bottom line is that I want to take such a telly. China, (as I said above, I have across the river) can help with this matter, my job is related to spare parts for special equipment, so I can, if anything, solve some issues with the Chinese.

P.s. I'm at the beginning and asked about the "official site" where you take, it's interesting to see where else you are bred.

[Killsleep]

Karas28 @ 04.13.17, 06:20

Guys, tell me, what kind of sites do you have such "Official"?))))

Well, mi.com, they have no other sites.

[zampoteh73rus]

Karas28Yes, I am with humor) here you are upset) nothing prejudicial and insulting. Here you are wound up)
