Blaupunkt 55-inch Smart Google TV Review: Design
As usual, let’s start with the television’s design. With the Blaupunkt 55-inch Google TV, you get a lot of stuff right out of the box. You also receive a wall mount, a full-function IR remote control, batteries, a user manual, and an adaptor for component ports. It’s really simple to set up, and after the table feet are screwed on, the TV is ready to use.
The Blaupunkt 55-inch Smart Google TV comes to life with the included IR/BT remote control, and you can quickly connect to Wi-Fi and enable it by connecting with a Google ID of yours. A gorgeous 55-inch QLED 4K display with nearly no bezel is shown up front. Why nearly? At the bottom, a substantial silver border with Blaupunkt logo runs. It is thick because a 60W RMS speaker is concealed underneath it.
The IR input, power button, and MIC on/off slider key are immediately below that. You can utilise the TV’s far-field microphone technology to speak commands to operate the TV. The section after that has more details.
Turn it over, and you’ll see that the manufacturer has side-mounted, side-hdmi, two USB, Ethernet, and RF connections at a depth of only 12.5 mm. The remote is far from simple and offers a tonne of utility. It features all the necessary controls for a TV, such as quick access buttons for Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and other services. There is also a unique function key that you can assign to a specific app.

Blaupunkt 55-inch Smart TV Google Review: Performance
Let’s now discuss the Blaupunkt 55-inch Smart Google TV’s performance. But first, let’s briefly go over a few technical details. With 60W speakers, 16GB of storage, a 16:9 aspect ratio, and a refresh rate of 60 hertz, the Blaupunkt 55-inch Smart Google TV offers all the features you could want. Up to 178 degrees of viewing angle support is provided.
In our review of the Blaupunkt 55-inch Smart Google TV, we’ll do our best to cover as many of the smart TV’s features as we can. Let’s begin with the sensation of watching. All types of moving pictures seem good on the big 55-inch 4K thin tube. We played a variety of games, including fast-paced action scenes from John Wick 3 and YouTube kids cartoons. They all looked fantastic on this television. Dolby Vision on the TV makes the colours pop, and users can quickly alter modes in the settings menu.
Speaking of which, you can adjust practically everything about this smart TV, from the visual colours to the sound, through the settings menu, which is incredibly detailed. Dolby Atmos tuned the audio, and the extreme audio output does give you a sense of simulated surround sound. The sound and video on this TV are excellent for medium- to large-sized rooms.
Voice commands can be used to control the TV, but in our test, they only consistently worked 7 out of 10 times, forcing us to switch back to the full-featured handy smart remote that comes with the Blaupunkt 55-inch Smart Google TV. The OS gives this TV complete justice. A powerful combination is Android 11 with Blaupunkt’s own skin on top.
Everything is there at your fingertips, and using several apps at once or browsing the web does not significantly slow down the system. If you notice a slowdown, simply fewer open apps or restarting the TV will quickly fix the issue (which is present with most Android TVs nowadays with less than 2.5GB RAM).

To put it to the test, we connected it to our PS5, and this smart TV is definitely up to the task of playing ultra-HD games. The sound elevates everything to a new level, and we enjoyed every aspect of it. For the greatest online experience, keep the Wi-Fi router 30 metres or less from the TV; otherwise, connect it to an Ethernet internet connection.
Verdict
The Blaupunkt 55-inch Smart Google TV costs 41,999, but customers can receive an extra 10% savings with some credit cards, like those from ICICI bank. So, does it merit purchase? Yes, in our opinion. It is a fantastic price for a 55-inch 4K TV that also improves low frame rates thanks to MEMC technology, coming in at under Rs 38,000. The video colours and sound quality are excellent, and there are many customizable features available. If you’re looking to purchase a large-screen smart television, take a look at the Blaupunkt 55-inch Smart Google TV. Additionally, the same TV is offered in 50-inch (Rs 35,999) and 65-inch (Rs 60,999) sizes.
