Refresh rate: 144Hz Brand: XIAOMI Resolution: 3840x2160 System: Google TV Model year: 2025
The premium TV market has been dominated for years by the same established players. However, alongside them, contenders regularly emerge, attempting to redefine the concept of "value for money." Xiaomi has long belonged to this second group, and their latest offering – the S Pro 2026 series – aims to be the definitive proof of this. On paper, the specifications look impressive: advanced Mini LED backlighting with thousands of local dimming zones, a 144 Hz panel supporting the latest consoles, and a powerful processor for handling Google TV. All this is packaged at a price that traditionally aims to shame the competition. The only question is whether it will succeed? We check this for you in this review!
XIAOMI TV S PRO 2026 - Our verdict
7.2
Overall rating
Is it worth buying the Xiaomi S Pro 2026? The answer to this question is quite complicated. Let's start with what is really great about this TV. First of all, the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 has an outstanding price-to-performance ratio. It features a Mini LED panel with very high brightness, which performs excellently in a sunlit living room. Additionally, it has a fast 144 Hz (or even 288 Hz) panel and a full gaming package: two HDMI 2.1 ports, support for VRR, and impressively low input lag (below 10 ms). If you mainly watch 'regular' content and play games, this is a fantastic screen. Even the built-in 30W speakers are surprisingly good and support Dolby Atmos. Unfortunately, there is also a second, very problematic side to this model. In short: the software. We have the impression that Xiaomi has given us great 'parts', but hasn't managed to make them work together properly. The biggest issue is the HDR mode – the main reason why people buy TVs today. For unknown reasons, the TV in HDR mode (HDR10, Dolby Vision) does not manage its dimming zones well. As a result, blacks that should be deep become grey or navy blue, like in a regular LCD TV. On top of that, there are other software issues such as the terrible implementation of HGiG or the fact that the Dolby Vision mode for gamers is unusable due to immense input lag (100 ms). Additionally, the TV's capability to process image digitally is very poor. So how can we summarise this in terms of price? In its price range, the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 crushes the competition in terms of specifications. Other TVs for this money are usually basic LCD models without dimming, and often only have a 60 Hz panel. The question then is: what is more important to you? If you're simply looking for a very bright and affordable TV for watching during the day and gaming, and you're willing to calibrate it – you will be very pleased with it. However, if you're looking for a TV to enjoy impressive HDR in movies and games straight out of the box, you will be terribly disappointed with this model. In that case, in our opinion, it's better to pay a bit more for a basic OLED TV or a more refined Mini-LED model from the competition.

It must be admitted that in terms of design, Xiaomi has undergone a sort of "glow-up" this year compared to last year's models. The television is crafted with great care, especially when we consider how often devices in the same price range look. The S Pro 2026 stands on solid metal legs that provide excellent stability for the entire structure. The bezel around the screen is really slim, giving the device a modern look. On the housing, we also find a few decorative touches. At the front, on the lower silver-grey bezel, the Harman Kardon branding is placed, suggesting that the speakers have been tuned in collaboration with this American company. Likewise, on the side of the device, we find a discreet Xiaomi logo along with the "Mini LED" logo. We must also commend the back of the device. The "back" of the television, although plastic and quite thick, has been very well designed. It features special indentations and channels for the cables, allowing us to route and hide them aesthetically so they don't stick out messily from the side. And although the S Pro 2026 may not be a premium-class device, it is evident that the designers' concept for this gear was quite interesting and unique.

Visibility of details in the lights:
Let's get to the point, which is what’s most important in the Mini LED panel: blacks and contrast. The Xiaomi S Pro 2026 is built on a VA matrix, which right off the bat promises deep blacks. On top of that, it features Mini LED backlighting with a very large number of local dimming zones. In the 65-inch variant we tested, we counted as many as 532. That’s a solid figure that should provide precise control over the backlighting. It should be noted that this number is proportional to size – opting for the smaller 55-inch variant will have fewer zones, while larger models will have more.
So, how does the black level perform on the S Pro 2026? The answer is complex.
Overall, it’s really not bad, and we see a clear improvement compared to the problematic model from 2025. As you can see on our measurement charts, the results are occasionally spectacular. In the majority of the film scenes we measured in SDR (standard dynamic range), the contrast could easily be called very good and even comparable to constructions three times more expensive. Well, it could be... and this brings us to the paradox of this model. The problem is how the television manages zones in scenarios other than SDR. As soon as we feed the TV a higher-quality signal, such as an HDR series or Dolby Vision from streaming platforms (Netflix, HBO Max, or Disney+), something strange happens. We have an irresistible impression that the TV suddenly... forgets it was equipped with local dimming zones at all. As shown in our video below, black levels in such scenes resemble more dark gray or navy shades. To this is added a slight flickering of the entire screen. This is a level we would expect from televisions completely lacking local dimming systems. It seems that Xiaomi, over the course of a year, chose to fix one key issue from last year’s 2025 model. And they succeeded – there’s no more annoying “zone disco”, the image is stable. It’s just a shame that when consuming high-quality content (HDR), this entire advanced system becomes completely useless.

When it comes to HDR quality, the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 is undoubtedly a very bright television. On our synthetic measurement patterns, we were able to achieve peak brightness of around 1400 nits. This result is not only very good but quite spectacular, considering the price of this model. However, as we always say, our editorial team values measurements and the viewing experience of content that people watch on a daily basis – from movies to series. So let’s analyse how Xiaomi performs with film material. The result is, unfortunately, quite mixed. When very bright scenes appear on screen, the S Pro 2026 truly shows its full capabilities and can achieve a real 800-1000 nits on bright elements. Moreover, even smaller objects can "burn" the eyes – in scenes from the movie Sicario 2, small metallic parts of the helicopter were really vivid. The problem is – and here the story comes full circle, returning to our contrast assessment – that in such scenes, we can’t count on absolutely cinematic black. In our opinion, this compromise is too significant; the high visibility of details in bright sections should not come at the expense of such a substantial drop in blacks. And even though the HDR effect can create a stunning impression here, it’s important to remember that when very challenging, mixed scenes appear on screen, we may feel a slight disappointment. Precisely the one we mentioned in the previous paragraph regarding issues with dimming in HDR mode. As a consolation, it’s worth adding that the S Pro 2026 is equipped with an additional PFS filter (similar in function to a QLED layer), which effectively broadens the colour gamut coverage. As a result, measurements showed DCI-P3 coverage reaching 94%. This gives us confidence that in most colourful scenes, the image will look rich and properly saturated.
Scene from the movie “Pan” (about 2800 nits)
Scene from the movie “Billy Lynn” (about 1100 nits)
So how does the S Pro 2026 handle adapting the image for HDR10 content, known as "tone mapping"? We must admit that for the most popular content, mastered at 1000 nits – which is what we most often encounter on streaming platforms – the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 looks really very good. When we played a test scene from the movie Billy Lynn, it became clear that the TV practically doesn't need to "adapt" to it. Its native brightness is easily able to generate such a high level, making these contents look simply fantastic and without noticeable compromises. (Well, maybe aside from slightly off-colour tones). The situation is a bit worse for the most demanding movies, mastered at 4000 nits or more. Analyzing a reference scene from the film "The Master," we noticed that very bright elements, like the sun's disc against a colourful sky, can appear slightly "blended" into one spot. It is clearly evident that under such extreme conditions, the TV's algorithms do not always perfectly map the brightest details, losing some information in the highlights. Nevertheless, it must be fairly concluded that in the most popular, everyday HDR productions, the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 definitely "holds its own" and can be well-received.
HDR luminance chart:

Fortunately, in the case of the Xiaomi S Pro 2026, we don't have to worry too much about its standalone tone mapping in HDR10. This is because the television is equipped with support for dynamic metadata in the form of Dolby Vision. This is crucial, as this format is found on practically every leading streaming platform. Thanks to dynamic metadata from Dolby, the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 can handle even very extremely bright scenes with ease. The Dolby Vision algorithm "guides" the television by the hand, scene by scene, so we don't have to worry that most details in the highlights will simply escape us. Of course, it’s important to remember that the implementation of Dolby Vision here doesn't look as spectacular as on the best flagship screens on the market. Nevertheless, we have no doubt that in its price category it really "holds its own" and is a huge added value for this model.

Factory color reproduction
4.1/10
Of course, all our measurements were conducted in "Film" mode, which is typically the best and most faithful choice we get straight after taking the TV out of the box. And to put it bluntly: while this is the best mode, it is still very far from perfect. Above all, the TV has a clear tendency to give the picture a cool, blueish tint – this is due to poorly set colour balance. Additionally, there is the issue of how the S Pro 2026 manages its brightness straight out of the box, which results in an over-saturated image. These two flaws contribute to really significant colourimetric errors (Delta E). In HDR content, they could double exceed our expected error scale of "10" (i.e. reaching values close to 20). Just to remind you – the threshold of perceivable error by the human eye is a Delta E value of around 3. Results at the level of 20 mean that the image significantly deviates from what the director intended.
Color reproduction after calibration
7.2/10
So how does the S Pro 2026 perform after our calibration process? We must admit that after calibration, the TV becomes a really enjoyable device for watching everyday content. As you can see in the charts, in HD (SDR) material, both white balance and gamma values have been brought to nearly perfection. Most importantly, colourimetric errors have become practically invisible to the human eye. In this scenario, the S Pro 2026 is simply a great TV that, after professional calibration, can provide a lot of joy from viewing. However, it is worth noting clearly – our efforts did little to help in 4K HDR mode. Despite the calibration, the TV still interprets the image quite strongly in its "own way," which is clearly evident in the measurement of the EOTF curve (brightness tracking). It's a bit of a shame because it shows that the problem lies not with the panel itself, but with the software. Poorly refined image management algorithms in HDR content can, unfortunately, rule this TV out for many more discerning users.
XIAOMI TV S PRO 2026 - Smoothness of tonal transitions
6.9/10
Now, let’s move on to the analysis of tonal transitions, which refers to the fluidity with which the television can render transitions between closely related shades. In the case of the Xiaomi S Pro 2026, the image that emerges is extremely dualistic. On one hand, we have bright gradations. When scenes with a blue sky or other smooth transitions appear in the bright parts of the image, the S Pro 2026 handles them excellently. They look perfectly smooth, without any visible artifacts.
Unfortunately, the situation changes dramatically as soon as dark scenes take over the screen. To put it bluntly – they look really poor. Instead of a smooth tonal transition in the darkness, the screen clearly shows colour banding and unsightly "stepping" of gradients. This is very noticeable in darker films or games and can effectively ruin the viewing experience.
Image scaling and smoothness of tonal transitions
4.5/10
Smooth transition function
Image without overscan on the SD signal
Let's start with the issue we raised in the previous paragraph: can a TV even fix the problem of terrible tonal transitions in dark scenes? Theoretically yes – in the menu, we find a feature with the promising name "Colour Contour Removal." Well, "theoretically." Unfortunately, in practice, this setting – regardless of which of the three power levels is chosen – yielded absolutely no real results. So we are dealing with a feature that practically only exists in the menu. Moving on to the quality of upscaling (scaling from a lower resolution to 4K), unfortunately, we have more bad news for you. The S Pro 2026 handles this task very poorly. Interestingly, the phenomenon of "overscan" (slight image cropping) is not a major issue here. The problem is that the TV simply shows a very raw, unprocessed image. Its attempt to boost the signal to a higher resolution looks simply dull and lacks any "intelligent" enhancement. There's no denying it – the entire digital image processing is the true Achilles' heel of this model.
XIAOMI TV S PRO 2026 - Blur and motion smoothness
7.5/10
Maximum refresh rate of the panel: 144Hz
Film motion smoothing option: Yes
Blur reduction option: Yes
BFI function 60Hz: No
BFI function 120Hz: No
On paper, the specifications of the S Pro 2026 look impressive. The television is equipped with a native 144 Hz panel, capable of displaying images at up to 288 Hz in a dedicated gaming mode. These are incredible results, but what we were most interested in, in the context of everyday use, was how the TV handles motion blur and how the picture looks at 120 Hz. After all, this is the frequency used today by consoles such as the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and it is desirable for sports fans. Generally, the panel "holds up". The matrix is quick enough to meet these challenges, and objects displayed at a native smoothness of 120 Hz are rendered correctly. When it comes to software, the TV is equipped with motion smoothing technology, but with a key caveat – it only works for input signals up to 60 Hz. This means it's mainly suitable for traditional TV, movies, and series. With it, we can adjust the smoothness of the picture to our own preferences – ranging from a very smooth, "theatrical" approach, to setting the slider at "zero" and maintaining a fully cinematic character.
Blur (native resolution, maximum refresh rate):
Smużenie (1080p@288Hz):
It’s worth mentioning about the trailing that the S Pro 2026 is equipped with a VA panel. For this reason, it handles trailing in a moderate way. Even though the panel has the ability to "refresh" the image at speeds of up to 288 Hz, it’s important to remember that the physical capabilities of the pixels themselves (their response time) have their limitations. As a result, a trail behind a fast-moving object may still be slightly visible.

For gamers, the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 is on paper an almost perfect proposition. It has been equipped with two HDMI 2.1 ports, which allow us to unlock (although these options are somewhat hidden in the menu) the full suite of features: ALLM, VRR, and, crucially, the ability to operate in 4K at 144 Hz. This last feature should particularly please owners of powerful PCs. The TV also has something resembling a gamer panel – and while it’s hard to call it a full-fledged "Gamebar," it does its job by displaying key information. It’s just a shame that in its default form, it covers a relatively large part of the screen.
The biggest problem we have with this model, however, concerns how the S Pro 2026 handles games in HDR mode. To put it bluntly: it doesn’t handle it well. Due to the poorly implemented HGiG feature (the HDR tone mapping standard for games), during the initial HDR calibration on the console, it’s very easy to "blow out" the image. If someone is unaware of this software flaw and follows the on-screen instructions, they will simply set the picture incorrectly, with burnt-out details in bright areas. Another significant issue is the Dolby Vision mode for games. While it works, it generates such a high input lag that it becomes noticeable in dynamic titles. (You can check all our lag measurements in the paragraph below). In summary: Generally, this is a really very good screen for gamers, but with one small caveat. We would rather avoid HDR mode on it – unless we decide to manually set the brightness slider on the console "by eye," completely ignoring the tips from the console's pictogram.
XIAOMI TV S PRO 2026 - Input lag
8.5/10
We’re moving on to one of the most important measurements for gamers, which is signal delay (input lag). Overall, the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 performs excellently here. Generally, in game mode, the lag is very low. With 120 Hz content (from consoles or PC), we easily achieved results below 10 ms. These are truly outstanding results and, in practice, absolutely unnoticeable for most people, even those who are very sensitive. Unfortunately, there is one "but," which constitutes the biggest drawback of this model for gaming. We're talking about Dolby Vision Gaming mode. When this mode is activated, the input lag rises to an astronomical level of about 100 ms. At such a value, the delay between our movements on the controller (we tested on an Xbox console) and what is displayed on the screen becomes really very large and annoying. Therefore, our recommendation is simple: we absolutely do not recommend using Dolby Vision Gaming mode on this television.

|---|---|---|
| 1080p60: 17 ms | 2160p60: 17 ms | 2160p60 DV: 110 ms |

Chroma 444 (maximum resolution and refresh rate): Yes
Font clarity: Good
Readability of dark text and shapes: Good
Input lag in PC mode (4K, maximum refresh rate): 8ms
Matrix subpixel arrangement: BGR
Max refresh rate: 144Hz
G-Sync: Yes
Generally, when it comes to gaming, the S Pro 2026 is a great screen for PC owners. It offers a refresh rate of up to 288 Hz at Full HD resolution or a full 144 Hz at 4K. All of this, supported by technologies like AMD FreeSync and G-Sync, really means a lot for very demanding gamers. And what about "desktop" work? Here we have good news. Although the displayed font may not be perfectly sharp (like on a dedicated PC monitor with an IPS panel), it is presented in a really pleasant and readable way. This is due to the correct implementation of Chroma 4:4:4 sampling, which ensures that the text is clear and there are no issues with colour fringing.
XIAOMI TV S PRO 2026 - Viewing angles
3.7/10
Brightness drop at an angle of 45 degrees: 66%
As for a TV equipped with a VA panel, we must admit that the drop in brightness when deviating from the screen's axis is relatively minor on the Xiaomi S Pro 2026. However, it is important to remember the second, crucial aspect – colour saturation degrades significantly at an angle. This is typical behaviour for TVs with VA panels that lack additional coatings to widen viewing angles. Is this a disadvantage of this TV? Not really. It's simply a characteristic, the price we have to pay for the key benefits of a VA panel in terms of its high native contrast.
XIAOMI TV S PRO 2026 - Daytime performance
7.4/10
Panel finish: Glare
Reflection suppression: Average
Black levels during daytime: Very Good
Due to its extremely high peak brightness, the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 performs really well in bright, sunlit rooms. In most scenarios, it's able to "break through" even very strong lighting in the room. However, it's worth noting that the matrix used here does a fairly average job of suppressing reflections. This means that in darker areas of the image, or when the TV is displaying a dark scene, direct reflections (e.g., window or lamp reflections) can be irritating. Nevertheless, the S Pro 2026, as a TV for a bright living room, excels really well thanks to its powerful brightness.

Operating System (Google TV)
An enormous advantage of the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 is undoubtedly the presence of the Google TV system. This gives us access to a gigantic library of apps – we can literally find everything here, from leading VOD platforms to niche players. The system also offers plenty of useful features, such as built-in Chromecast, support for AirPlay and Screen Mirroring, and efficiently functioning voice search. The Google TV system itself is great, but Xiaomi's implementation needs a little adjustment. During our tests, it occasionally experienced a proverbial "breathlessness." Animations would stutter slightly, and the response to commands was not immediate. This is certainly not the level of fluidity we know from top-tier, significantly more expensive models equipped with more powerful processors.
TV Features and Connectivity
So how does the S Pro 2026 perform as a "regular" television? Unfortunately, we have less good news here. In terms of traditional television viewing, we can mainly praise this model for having a convenient remote with a numeric keypad – which (surprisingly) is no longer a standard today. However, this is where the conveniences end. We won’t find either USB recording functionality (PVR) or PiP (Picture-in-Picture) options. On the plus side, we acknowledge the extensive Bluetooth connectivity options. We were able to connect external devices to the TV without any problems, such as wireless headphones, a keyboard, or a mouse, which significantly eases operation.

The built-in, default media player in the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 is – considering the capabilities of the Google TV system – simply poor. Its biggest disadvantage is that it does not support characters beyond those from the standard alphabet. Consequently, it does not display, among other things, Polish fonts in subtitles or file names. Fortunately, as we mentioned earlier, the heart of the television is Google TV. This system allows for the quick installation of an external player, which is significantly better, such as VLC or Kodi. For this television, we recommend installing an alternative player immediately after the first startup.

We have to admit that the S Pro 2026 really surprised us in a positive way. The television is equipped with a 30W speaker system, which, for its class, sounds really very good. There’s even a perceivable hint of bass, and the mids and highs are quite well balanced. Of course, all this is within the capabilities of the television's speakers, but it’s a level we didn't expect from such a relatively cheap model. A huge plus is also the support for top audio technologies. The television is able to decode not only the very popular Dolby Atmos format but also the recently rather rare DTS:X, which we mainly find on Blu-ray discs.
