If you think about it, TVs have become key electronic devices for household entertainment. And while smartphones serve the function of entertainment outside the home for the user, TVs do a better job indoor.

A321: A 32-inch ‘Basic Analog TV’ S431: This is a 43-inch ‘Digital i-Cast TV’ with full HD display i551: A 55-inch 4K Smart TV with smart OS 9.0 and a frameless design.
All three TVs will be available for purchase in Nigeria in December 2020.
