Kivi 55UR50GU 55 "

The 55-inch TV of the Ukrainian brand Kivi received a neat silver frame and widely spaced legs. The model also assumes a wall-mounted fixation option using a 400x200 mm VESA mount.

Quality picture

The Kivi 55UR50GU features a VA panel that supports Ultra HD 4K and High Dynamic Range technology (HDR 10 format). A headroom of 520 cd/m2 peak brightness is enough to experience the benefits of HDR over normal content. The picture is characterized by accurate colour reproduction: shades are juicy, saturated, but natural. Also, the display will please with a good contrast level (10000:1): black colour in subdued lighting looks believable.

Initially low-quality content is processed by a 4-core Cortex-A53 processor, and Advanced Colour Engine and Upscaling technologies are responsible for its improvement. The frame rate of 60 Hz in dynamic scenes can be increased by MEMC interpolation (up to 800 fps), which is important when watching action movies and sports broadcasts, as well as in games.

Nice Chips

The Kivi 55UR50GU features a 24W 2-channel audio system to meet basic audio needs.

The set of interfaces is represented by HDMI, USB 3.0, mini-Jack (3.5 mm), coaxial and optical output. Complements Bluetooth and Wi-Fi technology connectors. However the latter does not guarantee 4K video streaming without freezes, therefore, the LAN port does not lose its relevance.

Android TV

The smart functionality of the TV is revealed by Android TV 7. The proprietary shell is notable for flexible user settings, an abundance of online cinemas and video streaming services, including KIVI TV interactive television, and other entertainment applications. Ease of use gives a multimedia remote control with a voice assistant. A smartphone with the KIVI Remote application installed is also capable of duplicating its functions.

In most cases, Smart TV works quickly, but sometimes there are complaints about freezes and software crashes. These shortcomings, usually, are eliminated by installing newer and more stable firmware. Considering the democratic price, Kivi 55UR50GU claims to be the people's 4K TV — one of the most affordable large-screen models on Android.
