When choosing a Xiaomi TV with a diagonal of 43 inches, many users overlook such an important parameter as the weight of the device. Why should you? From the mass of the TV depends not only on the ease of transportation, but also on the choice of mounting on the wall, the strength of the shelf or cabinet, and safety during installation. In this article, we will analyze in detail the weight of all current models of the 43-inch Xiaomi TVs (Mi TV series, Redmi Smart TV, Xiaomi TV A and others), compare them with competitors and give practical recommendations for installation.
We will focus on two key parameters: weight without a stand (for wall mounts) and weight with a stand (for furniture installation), and you will learn how to interpret the specifications correctly to avoid mistakes when buying fasteners or choosing a seat for TV.
Topical models Xiaomi 43 inches: weight and key differences
Xiaomi’s 43-inch TV lineup includes several series that differ not only in functionality but also in body design, which directly affects weight. Below are the most popular models on the market:
- 📺 Xiaomi Mi TV Q2 43" - flagship model with a quantum dot (QLED) metal-frame.
- 💡 Xiaomi TV A Pro 43" - budget version with support for Dolby Vision and a thin frame.
- 🎮 Redmi Smart TV X43 — 120 Hz and low input lag.
- 🌍 Xiaomi Mi TV P1 43" - universal version with good color reproduction for cinema.
It is important to understand that weight can vary even within the same model due to different revisions (for example, Xiaomi TV A Pro 2023 vs 2026).So always check the data on the official website or in the documentation for a particular device. In the next section we will give the exact figures for each model.
Weight table of 43-inch Xiaomi TVs (2023–2026)
The following are the weight data for the most popular models. Please note: weight is indicated without packaging (only the device itself).
| Model | Weight without support (kg) | Weight with support (kg) | Type of stand | Year of release |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Xiaomi Mi TV Q2 43" | 7.8 | 8.2 | Metallic, V-shaped | 2023 |
| Xiaomi TV A Pro 43" | 6.5 | 6.9 | Plastic, wide base | 2026 |
| Redmi Smart TV X43 | 7.1 | 7.5 | Metallic, narrow. | 2023 |
| Xiaomi Mi TV P1 43" | 6.8 | 7.3 | Plastic + metal, medium width | 2022 (current in 2026) |
Critical note: models with QLED-matrix (for example, Mi TV Q2) weigh 10-15% more than their counterparts with LED-backlight due to the additional layer of quantum dots and reinforced housing for better heat sink.
💡
For wall mounting of TVs Xiaomi 43" it is recommended to use brackets with a margin of safety of at least 20 kg (for example, for a model weighing 7.8 kg, take a mount for 25-30 kg).
Why TV Weight Is More Important Than You Think
The mass of the TV affects several key aspects:
- Installation safety: the shelf or cabinet must withstand twice the weight of the TV (taking into account the dynamic loads when on/off).
- Choice of mounting: Cheap brackets are often designed for 15–20 kg, which is not enough for most 43-inch models.
- Transportation: TVs weighing 7 kg or more are difficult to carry alone without the risk of damage to the matrix.
- Ventilation: Heavy models (such as the Mi TV Q2) require more reliable mounting to avoid overheating due to tight fits to the wall.
Example: users often buy brackets "diagonally" (for example, "for 40-55 inches"), without considering the real weight. As a result, the Redmi Smart TV X43 weighing 7.5 kg can gradually sag on the mount, designed for 6 kg. Always focus on the maximum load of the bracket, not on the diagonal range!
💡
Before buying a mount, check not only the weight of the TV, but also the VESA standard (the distance between the holes on the back). Xiaomi 43" is usually 200×200 mm or 200×100 mm.
How to weigh the TV Xiaomi 43 at home
If you have already bought a TV and are not sure of its weight (for example, there is no documentation), you can measure the mass yourself.
Floor scales (electronic, with zeroing function)
Assistant (for models heavier than 7 kg)
Soft fabric (so as not to scratch the screen)
Roulette or ruler (for measuring dimensions)
-->
Process:
- Put the scales on a flat, hard surface (not on a carpet!).
- Reset the reading (click Tare or similar button).
- Carefully place the TV screen down on the soft fabric placed on the scales. For models with a stand, remove it first (usually mounted on 4 screws).
- Record the readings. Repeat the weighting 2-3 times for accuracy.
⚠️ Warning: Never place the TV on the scales with the screen upwards without support - this can damage the matrix due to uneven weight distribution).
If you don't have a floor scale, you can use a kitchen scale with a limit of up to 10 kg, weighing the TV in parts (for example, first the case without a stand, then the stand separately).
Comparison with competitors: who is easier – Xiaomi, Samsung or LG?
The weight of the TV depends not only on the diagonal, but also on the technology used by the manufacturer. Let's compare the 43-inch models of Xiaomi with the counterparts from other brands:
| Brand and model | Weight without support (kg) | Type of matrix | Design features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Xiaomi Mi TV Q2 43" | 7.8 | QLED | Metal body, enhanced cooling |
| Samsung CU7000 43" | 7.2 | LED | Plastic case, thin frames |
| LG 43UP7500 | 6.9 | LED (IPS) | Ultra-thin design, legs-stacks |
| TCL 43P635 | 6.5 | LED | Budget assembly, lightweight plastic |
As you can see from the table, Xiaomi is not always heavier than its competitors. TV Q2 s QLED-The matrix weighs more than Samsung CU7000, Xiaomi TV The A Pro (6.5 kg) is lighter than most of its peers, and this is due to the use of lightweight materials in budget series.
Fun fact: TVs with IPS-matrixes (for example, LG 43UP7500) are often lighter than models with VA-matrixes (like Xiaomi Mi TV P1), as they do not require additional layers to improve contrast.
Why? QLED-TVs are heavier?
Frequent errors in choosing a mount for Xiaomi 43
Even though you know the weight of the TV, you often make editing mistakes, and here are the most common ones:
- 🔧 Ignoring the standard VESA: purchase of a bracket with a discrete distance between the holes (for example, 200×100 instead 200×200).
- 🧱 Wrong Choice of Anchors: Using Dubels for Drywall on a Concrete Wall (or Vice versa).
- 📏 Unaccounted depth: the TV after installation can rest on the shelf or interfere with the opening of the cabinet.
- ⚡ Proximity to the sockets: power cables and HDMI They may be in trouble if you do not think about their location in advance.
⚠️ Attention: If you are mounting a TV on a wall of drywall, use special butterfly anchors or a load-distributing mounting plate. Xiaomi Mi TV Q2 7.8 kg can rip ordinary dowels from drywall in a few months!
For clarity, we give the minimum requirements for fastening:
- For weight up to 7 kg: bracket with a load of up to 15 kg, anchors 6×40 mm.
- For weight of 7-8 kg: bracket for 25-30 kg, anchors 8×50 mm.
- For drywall: mounting plate + butterfly anchors (minimum 4 mounting points).
