Realme Smart SLED TV 55-inch specifications

The Realme Smart SLED TV 55-inch runs on Android 9 Pie and features a Cinematic Display that offers 4K Ultra HD resolution along with 1.7 billion colours. The proprietary display panel comes with a 94.6 percent screen-to-body ratio. It is also claimed to deliver an NTSC colour gamut of up to 108 percent. Unlike a traditional LED panel that uses a single white backlight that goes to the RGB filters, the SLED panel uses an SPD backlight with RGB LED lights at the back. This enables the display to produce the higher colour gamut, which is claimed to be similar to what you'll get on a QLED panel.

Aside from the distinct display panel, Realme has provided a native colour tuning on the Smart SLED TV that works alongside the built-in Chroma Boost Picture Engine to optimise colour production. There are also seven display modes, namely Standard, Sport, Game, Vivid, Energy Saving, User, and Movie. The TV has TUV Rheinland certification for low blue light emission.

Under the hood, the Realme Smart SLED TV 55-inch comes with a quad-core MediaTek SoC that has a 1.2GHz Cortex-A55 CPU, paired with Mali-470 MP3 GPU and 16GB of onboard storage. The TV also includes 24W quad stereo speaker system along with Dolby Audio technology.

The Realme Smart SLED TV 55-inch comes with Google Assistant support. Connectivity options include three HDMI ports, two USB ports, one AV out, one Ethernet port, and a headphone jack. The TV also has Bluetooth v5.0 and Infrared as well as dual-band Wi-Fi support on the part of wireless connectivity. Furthermore, there is a smart remote with dedicated hotkeys to access Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, and YouTube.
