Aiwa is well aware of the competition and the smart TV launch plans of OnePlus and Redmi, however, it is confident with its features and affordable pricing. Gujral said, “An average Indian consumer wants loud sound and very bright picture and our able competitors do not have that kind of lighting and sound.”
