TVs today are getting slimmer and slimmer, and when you are looking to pick up a TV, especially on a budget, one of the biggest compromises is with the sound output. Most budget TVs today have two 10W speakers which get the job done for everyday TV viewing, but if you want an immersive movie-watching experience or if you want to enjoy gaming on the TV, then you will have to invest in a soundbar. A soundbar not only enhances your TV viewing experience but also doubles up as a speaker for you to enjoy music on as well. If you are on a tight budget, then worry not. We list the best soundbar that you can get for a budget of Rs 5000. Just so you know, we haven't reviewed most of these soundbars so we are listing them based on their features and specifications.
Xiaomi as a company has a reputation of disrupting the segment in which it launches a product. We have seen the company do this with smartphones and TVs. Xiaomi did the same with the launch of the Mi Soundbar. Put simply, the soundbar has very good sound reproduction for the price and has elegant looks as well. It has a good array of audio input options. The only downside is the absence of remote control. It may lack a subwoofer, but the soundbar packs enough of a punch to make up for the lacklustre audio coming from your TV.
