With the rising craze for smart TVs, many popular brands are entering the market with high-end devices. The 50-inch is a popular TV size as they offer a great balance between performance, screen size, and price. However, every TV is not the same, and selecting the best out of crowded options is definitely a hard job.
The Nokia 50UHDADNVVGE LED 4K TV was unveiled in the market with many great features. But it faces stiff competition from the OnePlus U1S LED 4K TV and the Xiaomi Mi TV 5X LED 4K TV.

The OnePlus 50 U1S sports a near bezel-less design. The TV isn’t too thick nor too heavy. The grey bottom bezel has a trapezoid chin that hosts a bunch of LEDs and receivers for far-field mics along with a pair of power LEDs that look good.
On the other hand, the Xiaomi Mi TV 5X LED 4K TV has about 2cm thick bezels along the top, left, and right edges of the display. A thicker metal strip runs along the bottom of the display and has got the Xiaomi logo in between.

Verdict
The OnePlus 50 U1S can be purchased at Rs. 38,999. Although this TV offers a few extra features like far-field microphones and decent audio. But, similar-sized Dolby Vision-compliant TVs can be purchased for less than Rs. 35,000.
