So far, Flipkart has launched two Nokia Smart TVs in India, and now it looks to introduce the Android TV box to diversify its portfolio.

The device runs on Android 9.0 TV operating system, supports JBL audio technology for superior sound quality and has 24 Watt multiple speakers. Other key features of the Nokia-branded smart TV include a quad core processor and 16GB of onboard storage.

Just last month, Flipkart brought along a new 43-inch Nokia Smart TV priced at Rs. 31,999 in India. Key features of the new 43-inch model include JBL Audio and Dolby Vision support. The Nokia Smart TV 43-inch variant comes with built-in Chromecast.
