I think display cable is loose though I have no idea how much Sony will charge you for the fix.

I just saw 2 videos that corrected your problem by a weird solution. The links are below:

Note: I may be wrong but at least try once.

Thanks for suggestions.......

But I saw both videos...In that video, the half-size display was blurring or slight color changing with black more with waves.

In my TV, the display was the completely cut aspect exact ratio of half size of the TV....like covered with blackboard or panel. Also, there are no pixel grains or noise.

Next time I try with some light hit... let's see what will happen...

I meant display cable inside the TV.It's a ribbon connector.

After several enquiry with technicians and Authorized center, Every one suggest panel replacement and some of them said Repairable. So I take chance send to service with local cost of 3k.

After 2 weeks TV shows same display extra lines...check below image.

If you are planning to get this one Mi LED Smart TV 4A 108 cm (43) Online at best Prices In India

then I would say go for it but if you are planning to get 4k one from mi then I strongly suggest against it.

Me too choosed that 43 inch 1080 only.
Any one got this TV in our forum members? How is review?

Most of them reviews are.good in Online.

Why you against 4k model in MI?
Not worth...or any cheat specifications?

43 inch model has no Bluetooth. Also, I saw in a video that don't open the box and set it up yourselves. It has something to do with their terms and conditons, warranty something like that. Mi installation engineer will come and set it up

I don't think it support chromecast as well. Due to lack of Google Play Services, Netflix might not work right as well. A few apps in that league.

4k one costs 45k and spending so much on a relatively new brand is not recommended. I would spend that money to get something from Sony, LG or Panasonic.

Thanks for Valuable point.

Why need Bluetooth for TV?

Personally I don't prefer Any Streaming Services & DTH.

Always like Down loadable Video content play via USB.

Thought you would be using Bluetooth head phones with TV

meetdilip said:

Ok... While using Head phones...Having headaches.
So no problem...If Bluetooth not available.
Let me know any other valuable points

Agreed your point 45K for new Branded.

But huge price difference on Other Brands in Existing Models.

Any Brand 4K model in valuable price?

Since you bought the sealed box with you, was there any custom issue?

I think custom laws were different back then.In fact govt changed laws after complaints from TV manufacturers that many people were bringing LCD TV from abroad free of cost not just for personal use but also for selling in grey market(& in fact it was true). That is why govt changed laws to make bringing new LCD TV from abroad a costly affair & there is no benefit now for doing it.

But I guess sealed boxes of mobiles, tv's etc. always attracted custom duties, before any modification of laws also.

Not exactly.You can't transport a TV outside of its packing & there is no way to differentiate between a new & a safely stored old packing other then carefully inspecting the sealing tapes which nobody has the time for at customs(they just use xray scanners for detecting hidden goods,drugs,money,gold etc). People were bringing in 32"/40" LCD TV from abroad by declaring them as personal good just like laptop without paying any custom duty. Many of these ended up selling in grey markets. Because of all the complaints & tax loss govt banned this rule of free bringing in for LCD TVs. I think now the only way for bringing such TVs from abroad is by declaring them as used goods provided you stayed in foreign for more than a few months plus you are not going back soon either(like those IT companies sending people abroad for assignments of few months/years).

Yes sealed box only, No custom issue. I was bought before the policy changed.
