Overall rating

Xiaomi A Pro 2025 is an affordable QLED model that works well as a basic television in the home. The Google TV operating system deserves attention. Thanks to it, one can easily use apps like Netflix and YouTube. The interface is clear and user-friendly, and the ability to search by voice in Polish allows for quick access to content of interest. The picture on the A Pro 2025 is sufficient for everyday television watching or film viewing. Smooth tonal transitions and the enhancement of older materials make even lower resolution content look good. However, the screen brightness may disappoint in very sunny rooms – here the television performs mediocrely, but it fares much better in a dimly lit room. The television is rather suitable for occasional gaming. Low input lag ensures quick response, which is important for dynamic games. However, the 60 Hz panel and lack of more advanced features may not appeal to gamers seeking perfect image fluidity. On the other hand, A Pro 2025 may be sufficient for those who play from time to time. Not everything works perfectly. When connecting the television to a computer, the fonts are difficult to read, which can hinder text work. The Google TV system itself can be a bit slow, which sometimes complicates the quick switching of applications. Xiaomi A Pro 2025 is a simple and functional television that is suitable for daily television viewing and using apps. It has its flaws, such as average brightness and font readability issues, but at this price, it offers quite a lot. It is a good choice for those looking for budget equipment for basic uses.

Review XIAOMI A PRO 2025 Visibility of details in the lights

Xiaomi A Pro is equipped with a VA matrix, which inherently offers significantly better black depth and colour intensity compared to IPS panels, especially in dimly lit conditions. Based on the conducted tests, the contrast measurement tool indicated a maximum value of around 6000:1. This is a solid result, ensuring good separation of image elements in darker scenes. An example can be the film Oblivion, where the television performed excellently in separating light and dark areas, enhancing the visual effects. Unfortunately, the television does not support local dimming technology, which is an obvious fact in this price range. This becomes particularly evident in more challenging scenes, such as those from the film Sicario 2. In such moments, the black loses intensity and starts to resemble a rather navy shade. The lack of dynamic dimming of image segments causes details that should be deeply darkened to remain slightly illuminated.

In the HDR category, the television Xiaomi A Pro is, to put it plainly, lacking. Under ideal conditions, it offers brightness at around 250 nits. This is a poor result; however, in this price range, many competing models offer similar or lower values. Such brightness is too low to fully realise the potential of HDR content. In practice, this means that the image does not gain the appropriate depth and intensity expected from high-quality HDR. These values are more characteristic of standard dynamic range (SDR), which means that the true HDR effect remains beyond the reach of this model, and scenes that should stand out with spectacular brightness and contrast seem flat and lacklustre. However, for its price, the television offers good coverage of the DCI-P3 colour gamut at 92%, thanks to the use of quantum dot technology (specifically PFS LED). This results in vibrant and saturated colours, which will appeal particularly to gamers and film enthusiasts who appreciate richer shades and better colour reproduction compared to traditional televisions without this technology.

Review XIAOMI A PRO 2025 Scene from movie Billy Lynn

Now it is worth checking how the Xiaomi A Pro television performs in difficult conditions, especially with films recorded with a brightness display that exceeds the capabilities of this display. In the case of scenes from films such as Pan or Billy Lynn, the television is able to adapt to these materials, however, the effects are not satisfactory. The image appears excessively brightened, making it difficult to discern any details that are crucial for visual experiences. Despite the brightened image in Billy Lynn, the television was able to accurately render the lead actor, and his tones and skin imperfections were preserved. This shows that despite the limitations in brightness, the television can capture some important details and nuances. The issue of excessive brightness may be caused by the lack of any control over dynamic tone mapping and the absence of local dimming technology, which leads to a loss of contrast and depth in challenging scenes. Without proper brightness management in such moments, the television is unable to accurately convey the subtleties of the image, negatively impacting the overall viewing experience.

HDR luminance chart:

Xiaomi A Pro supports both static HDR10 and dynamic HDR10+. The choice of film playback mode has a significant impact on the final visual effect. In the case of static HDR10, the elements presented in the picture look good, but we can see some limitations; details such as grass have not been fully highlighted, affecting the overall representation of the scene. On the other hand, thanks to the dynamic metadata offered by HDR10+, the same image appears much better. Less significant details are more visible, and the background does not merge into one blot, allowing for better depth and greater detail in scenes. This highlights how important it is to use dynamic metadata in lower-priced televisions, which have certain limitations in the brightness they offer.

Factory color reproduction

5.1/10

The Xiaomi A Pro 2025 television has been tested in movie mode, which offers the best colour reproduction straight out of the box. However, it is worth noting that it is not free from flaws. Analysing the white balance, it can be observed that the values for green are in the negative. This phenomenon leads to some distortions in the shades of white, and with pure white, the graph shows clear deviations. The over-contrasted image results in inappropriate tonal transitions in red, negatively affecting the quality of colour display. Generally, in the image below, it can be seen that the overall scenery before calibration acquires pink hues. Additionally, when analysing gamma contrast, the graph is significantly below the 2.4 value, suggesting that the television overly emphasises dark tones, and the brighter areas of the image may be less vivid. Furthermore, the EOTF curve shows a strong peak at the beginning, which can lead to a loss of detail in bright scenes and an unpleasant feeling of over-drawing. These aspects indicate a need for further calibration to achieve a more balanced colour reproduction and improve the overall image quality. Users who expect precise colour reproduction may be forced to take measures to adjust the television settings to achieve more realistic and natural visual results. In the xiaomi tv a pro 2025, the factory colour settings in Xiaomi are average and may require calibration. After proper colour adjustment, the image gains a natural and vibrant colour palette, much closer to cinematic standards. It is worth adding that the issue of inaccurate colour reproduction is typical for many televisions in this class, meaning it is not a flaw unique to the Xiaomi A Pro 2025 TV. For those who value perfect colour reproduction, professional calibration will prove to be a key element that enhances the overall image quality.

Color reproduction after calibration

7/10

Now it's time to check how the Xiaomi A Pro 2025 television has performed after calibration. The biggest beneficiary of this process is the white balance. After the calibration was conducted, all previous errors were corrected in both HD and 4K content, and most errors no longer fall significantly outside the value of "2". This means a much more balanced and natural colour representation, which certainly affects the viewing comfort. In terms of gamma, the drop was significantly reduced, resulting in a more consistent tonal representation across various scenes. Nevertheless, the EOTF curve has not been significantly improved due to a lack of effective control over dynamic tone mapping. This limitation means that there are still some issues with detail reproduction in bright scenes, which may affect the perception of certain materials. However, despite these minor shortcomings, the overall shape of the image is definitely better after calibration. The television has gained in quality, and the improved white balance along with reduced gamma issues allows users to enjoy a more realistic and pleasant visual experience. Further adjustment of settings may enhance image quality even more, but even now the television demonstrates its capabilities, meeting the expectations of many users.

Smoothness of tonal transitions

9.3/10

During the fluidity tests of tonal transitions on the Xiaomi A Pro 2025, the gradation proved to be close to perfect. In most of the test sequences, there were no noticeable issues. Only in the scene with red water did very cosmetic imperfections appear, which, however, have little impact on the overall image quality. Both colourful and grey gradients were reproduced with almost perfect precision, making this television model a very good choice for those who pay attention to this particular feature of a TV.

How does the Xiaomi A Pro 2025 television cope with tonal transitions, especially with lower-quality materials? Thanks to advanced digital processing, the colour contour removal function works surprisingly well. We recommend setting this option to "Medium" – the television significantly improves the fluidity of tonal transitions while avoiding excessive smoothing of other image elements, such as film grain.

In the case of the tested image featuring a model and numerous branches in the background, the Xiaomi A Pro 2025 showcased its capabilities in terms of digital processing. Adding artificial sharpness to this scene made the details of the model more pronounced, and her hair appeared more detailed. However, delicate contours appeared around the branches in the background, which were a result of digital interference. Although this enhances the overall impression of detail, excessive sharpness can make some elements of the image seem unnaturally emphasised.

Xiaomi A Pro 2025 offers a motion smoothing feature called "Motion Smoothing," which primarily works in films. It can be adjusted to prefer either a more cinematic, film-like effect with visible frames, or a smoother, theatre-like image. This function should satisfy those who intend to watch mainly films on it. However, gamers and sports fans may feel disappointed. The 60 Hz refresh rate panel, typical in this price range, does not impress. Our "Ufo" test revealed some motion blur. Those expecting better sharpness of moving objects may be slightly let down.

Xiaomi A Pro 2025 offers several features useful for gamers, including Game Bar, which is different from the typical "dashboards" with interfaces found in other manufacturers' products. Thanks to this, users can quickly access game-related settings, which is convenient during intense sessions. The TV also supports Automatic Low Latency Mode (ALLM), meaning it automatically switches to a mode optimised for gaming, reducing signal latency. Unfortunately, it lacks support for HDMI 2.1, limiting its capabilities for connecting the latest gaming consoles that may require higher bandwidth. Additionally, the TV does not support features such as VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) or G-Sync, which are increasingly desired by gamers, as they allow for smoother visuals and eliminate tearing. For these reasons, although Xiaomi A Pro 2025 has some features for gamers, in this price range, better options can be found that offer more advanced solutions dedicated to gamers.

Review XIAOMI A PRO 2025 Compatibility with PC

In the category of cooperation with PC, Xiaomi A Pro 2025 performs very poorly. The fonts are of low quality, and their display on the screen is often problematic. Dithering is ubiquitous; when the fonts are enlarged on a dark background, they are displayed in three colours, which is definitely glaring and can significantly hinder comfortable use of the device. Such problems can be a significant downside for users who plan to use the television as a computer monitor.

Brightness drop at an angle of 45 degrees: 81%

In the category of viewing angles, Xiaomi A Pro 2025 with a VA panel performs quite poorly. Although you can enjoy better blacks when viewed head-on, from side perspectives, the image loses quality. Our specialists noticed during the testing of the television that sitting a metre away from the device, the image on the right side appeared brightened and desaturated. However, moving a bit to the side improves everything, which demonstrates the significant difference in image reception depending on the viewing angle. All of this means that the experience of watching in a larger group may be less satisfying.
