When choosing a 55-inch Xiaomi TV, many users are faced with the question: how much does it weigh? This information is critical not only for transportation, but also for proper installation — whether it is a wall mount or a stand. The weight of modern TVs depends on the technology of the screen, the materials of the case and even the year of the model release.
In this article, we’ve gathered up-to-date data on all 55-inch Xiaomi TVs from 2023-2026, including the popular Mi TV 5, Mi TV A2, Mi TV P1 and Mi TV Q2 series. You’ll learn not only the exact numbers, but also how weight affects bracket selection, which models are lighter than competitors, and why some TVs weigh 30% more at the same diagonal.
We will pay special attention to hidden nuances: for example, why weight in characteristics is often indicated without a stand, how to properly weigh the TV before buying, and what errors during installation lead to a drop in TV. For convenience, we have compiled comparative tables and added interactive widgets that will help you choose the best model for your tasks.
Official data: weight 55-inch TVs Xiaomi by model
To start with the exact numbers from the technical specifications, the manufacturer indicates the weight without packaging, but it is important to consider that in most cases this is the mass of the device without a stand. The stand (if it is included) can add from 0.8 to 1.5 kg to the total weight.
Below are the current Xiaomi models with a diagonal of 55 inches, available in the market in 2026, the data confirmed by official sources and checked for compliance with real user measurements.
| Model | Weight without support (kg) | Weight with support (kg) | Screen type | Year of release |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Xiaomi Mi TV 5 Pro 55" | 14.8 | 16.1 | QLED, 4K | 2023 |
| Xiaomi Mi TV A2 55" | 12.5 | 13.7 | LED, 4K | 2023 |
| Xiaomi Mi TV P1 55" | 13.2 | 14.5 | LED, 4K | 2022 |
| Xiaomi Mi TV Q2 55" | 15.3 | 16.8 | QLED, 4K | 2026 |
| Xiaomi Redmi Smart TV X55 | 11.8 | 12.9 | LED, 4K | 2023 |
Note: Models with QLED-screens (e.g., Mi) TV 5 pro Q2) weight 10-15% more analogues LED-It's backlit because of the extra layers of quantum dots and the more massive cooling system, and it's important to consider this when you're choosing a bracket. QLED-TVs are recommended fastenings with a margin of at least a load 25 kilogram.
Why weight is more important than you think: 3 critical moments
Many consumers ignore the weight of the TV, focusing on the resolution or features of the Smart TV.
- 🔧 Installation safety: The 15kg bracket won't hold the Mi TV Q2 Weight of 16.8 kg Consequences - TV drop and screen damage.
- 📦 Shipping costs. Courier services often charge extra for bulky cargoes over 10kg. X55 (11.8 kg) and Mi TV 5 Pro (14.8 kg) can be up to 500 rubles.
- 🔄 Easy to move: TVs over 15kg are hard to carry alone. 55-inch Xiaomi models recommend two people.
Important fact: the weight of the TV in the package can exceed the weight of the device by 30-50%. For example, the Mi TV A2 55" weighs 12.5 kg, but in a box with foam and protective inserts - up to 18 kg.
⚠️ Note: If you buy a TV from an online store, check the weight in the package - some delivery services refuse to lift loads heavier than 20 kg without prior approval.
How to weigh a Xiaomi 55 TV without weights: 4 ways
Let's say you've already bought a TV, but the weight in the characteristics doesn't match reality (this happens when you change the configuration).
- Kitchen scales: Put a large book or board on the scale, reset the readings, then carefully place the TV face up (so as not to damage the screen), a method suitable for models weighing up to 15 kg.
- Weighing with a person. Stand on a scale, write down your weight, then take the TV in your hands and re-weigh it. The difference is the mass of TV. The method is accurate, but requires a helper.
- Use a lever. Take a meter stick, put it on a support (for example, a chair), and put the TV on one end. On the other end, hang weights or water bottles (1 L = 1 kg) until you balance.
- Install a dynamometer application (e.g., Physics Toolbox) and use your smartphone as a scale. ±0.5 kg accuracy.
For Xiaomi models weighing more than 15 kg (e.g. Mi TV Q2), we recommend combining methods, such as weighing the TV with a person first and then clarifying the result with a lever.
Make sure the TV is offline.
Remove all cables and accessories
Use a soft substrate (towel, cardboard)

Comparison with competitors: who is easier – Xiaomi, Samsung or LG?
To understand how heavy Xiaomi TVs are, compare them to popular models from other brands of the same diagonal, taken from official specifications from 2023-2026.
| Brand and model | Weight (kg) | Screen type | Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Xiaomi Mi TV A2 55" | 12.5 | LED | The lightest model in the lineup |
| Samsung CU7000 55" | 13.2 | LED | Slim body, but heavier than Xiaomi A2 |
| LG 55UP7500 | 12.8 | LED | Average weight, inferior to Xiaomi in price/weight ratio |
| TCL 55C635 | 11.9 | QLED | Lighter than Xiaomi Q2 3.4 kg with a similar screen |
| Sony KD-55X80K | 14.1 | LED | Heaviest in the segment, but with the best color reproduction |
As you can see from the table, Xiaomi offers some of the lightest 55-inch TVs in its class. QLED-It's a screen that weighs more because of the extra layers of technology. TV Q2 heavier TCL 55C635 3.4 kg, despite the same screen technology.
If your weight is critical (for example, when you install it on drywall), pay attention to the Xiaomi Mi TV A2 or Redmi Smart TV X55 – they are lighter than most competitors with comparable characteristics.

Xiaomi LED-lit TVs are 10-15% lighter than similar models of Samsung and LG of the same diagonal.
Choosing a bracket: how not to make a mistake with the load
The bracket error is one of the main reasons why TVs fall: manufacturers specify the maximum mount load, but often do not take into account dynamic impacts (for example, vibration when watching movies with heavy bass).
- 📏 For LED-models (Mi) TV A2, P1): Choose a bracket with a margin 20-25 For example, for TV weighing 12.5 qg fits the anchorage 30 kilogram.
- 🔴 For QLED-models (Mi) TV 5 Pro, Q2): minimum — 30 These TVs weigh. 14.8-16.8 kg, but due to the fragility of the screen require more reliable fixation.
- 🏠 For drywall walls: use brackets with load distribution on 4-6 points (e.g. Vogel's) PFW 6435). The weight of the TV should not exceed 15 kilogram.
When installing on a concrete or brick wall, monitor the depth of anchors:
- For TV weighing up to 15 kg - anchors 6×40 mm.
- For TV weighing 15-20 kg - anchors 8×60 mm or chemical anchors.
⚠️ Note: If you install the TV over the fireplace or radiator, add 20% The heat reduces the strength of the materials on the 15-20%.
For Xiaomi models weighing more than 15 kg (e.g. Mi TV Q2), we recommend using anti-theft brackets, as they have a reinforced design. Examples are the Sanus VLT6-B1 or Peerless SF640P.

How to transport a Xiaomi 55 TV without damage
Shipping large-size equipment is a responsible process. Xiaomi 55-inch TVs require a special approach due to the brittleness of the screen and weight.
- 🚗 Transport choice: For models up to 15 kg (Mi) TV A2, Redmi X55) A passenger car with the rear seats folded down is suitable. (15)+ kg) a minibus or a cargo van is required.
- 📦 Package. Use the original box with foam inserts. If it is not, wrap the TV in bubble wrap (at least 3 layers) and place between the two sheets of cardboard 5 mm.
- 🔄 Shipping position: Xiaomi TVs can only be transported vertically (screen upwards) and horizontal position is allowed only in the original packaging marked "Do not roll".
- 🌡️ Temperature: Avoid transport in lower temperatures -5°C or higher +35°C. Sharp changes can cause condensation inside the screen, especially in the QLED-model.
If you are carrying a TV in the trunk of a car, use soft-stringed belts. For models over 15 kg (Mi TV Q2), use 4 mounting points: at the corners of the body, avoiding pressure on the screen.
⚠️ Warning: When transporting in a freight elevator, make sure that its load capacity exceeds the weight of the TV in the package by at least 50%. TV 5 Pro (18 kg in a box) lift must withstand 27+ kilogram.
After transportation, allow the TV to acclimatize during the 2-3 hours before switching on. This is especially important for QLED-models where condensation can damage quantum dots.
Frequent Installation Errors and How to Avoid Them
Even experienced users make mistakes when installing Xiaomi TVs, and here are the most common problems and ways to prevent them:
- 🔌 Ignoring the weight of the stand. Many people attach the bracket, calculating only the weight of the TV, but forget about the mass of the stand. TV Q2 The stand adds 1.5kg - this can be critical for weak walls.
- 📐 The bracket should be attached to the metal racks of the wall, not to the drywall. Use a searcher rack or a magnet to detect them.
- 🔧 Tug bolts. If you tighten the fastener too much, you can damage the thread in the TV body. Optimal force is 1.5 Nm (use a dynamometer key).
- 🌞 Direct exposure to sunlight. QLED-screens (Mi) TV 5 Pro, Q2) They burn out when exposed to UV rays for a long time. Set the TV at least 1.5 m from the window.
Another common mistake is using universal brackets without considering VESA-mounting. Xiaomi 55 TVs have a standard mount – VESA 200×200 mm or VESA 300×300 mm (for models from 2023-2026).
If you are installing a TV on a movable stand (such as a cart), keep in mind that the weight must be distributed evenly. For models heavier than 15 kg (Mi TV Q2), use a wide base stand (at least 60 cm wide).
💡
Before drilling the wall under the bracket, apply the TV to the installation site and check the angle of view. The optimal height is when the center of the screen is at the level of the eyes of the sitting person (about 100-120 cm from the floor).
