Check out full specs of the 32-inch and 43-inch models on the official website. Notably, I haven’t personally used these TVs, but my guess is that the entry-level models might be equipped with a nerfed version of the Android TV/Google TV experience. But this is just a hunch based on history, so be sure to let us know your experience in case you buy one of these.
Also worth noting is that while the deals on Jumia are unbeatable, they won’t last forever. Plus, stock may run out quickly. So if you’ve been eyeing a smart TV running Google TV/Android TV, now’s the time to act.
