Key features, price, availability – Firstpost

Vu Televisions unveiled the Vibe DV 2025 range of smart TVs in India, supposedly the world’s first QLED TV with an integrated soundbar. The TVs promise premium yet accessible home entertainment in terms of audio and video both. Successor to the 2024 Vu Vibe TV series, the new TVs offer features such as Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, along with Google TV OS, Google Chromecast and Apple AirPlay. They sport an all-black minimalist design with a floating glass display and a bezel-less look on three sides.

The Vu Vibe DV TVs feature an A+ Grade panel with 4K resolution and compliance with Dolby Vision and HDR10. Vu claims to have collaborated with Hollywood Filmmakers Association to ensure that content is displayed exactly as top directors intended. In addition, the new TVs can get up to 400 nits bright, offer 60 Hz refresh rate and host a VuON AI Processor for picture processing and upscaling. Connectivity options include 3 HDMI ports with support for eARC on one, 2 USB ports and optical audio out and a headphone jack.

Now let’s talk about a key feature of the Vu Vibe DV TVs – the integrated soundbar. It has a rated output of 88 Watts, which is quite impressive for TVs in this price bracket, and with support for Dolby Atmos too. If you happen to buy this TV, most may not need a separate soundbar or audio system; something we will confirm only after we review the TV. One can also use the integrated soundbar as a wireless speaker or audio system by switching off the display. You also get various audio presets on the TV to suit different content types like news, music, movies, sports etc.

Another interesting feature here is an option to have your own video studio with the Vu Vibe DVs’ camera support. By plugging in a compatible camera (needs to be purchased separately), one can supposedly record videos directly on the TV. The bundled remote is fairly compact and comes with a standee design to keep it vertical on a flat surface. In addition to the usual buttons, it also features a dedicated WiFi key to switch between wireless networks with minimal effort.

“At Vu Televisions, we’ve always endeavoured to create a truly premium brand that we can take from India to the world. With the Vu Vibe DV (Designer’s Vision), we have specially made a product for the Indian audience who is discerning, has global taste and wants nothing but the best. From amazing picture quality and sound to the design of the product, this is something that will perfectly adorn the Vu buyer’s home”, said Devita Saraf, founder, chairperson and CEO of the Vu Group.

The Vu Vibe DV will be available on Amazon India and offline retailers nationwide starting June 24th, 2025. The TVs are available in five different sizes ranging from 43-inch to 75-inch and priced at Rs 26,999 (43), Rs 32,999 (50), Rs 36,999 (55), 52,999 (65) and 66,999 (75) and come with a one year warranty if you buy it online. You get a 3-year warranty on these models if you purchase them through offline channels, however, the price tag may be a little higher. Stay tuned for a detailed review of the Vu Vibe DV smart TV.
