Overview

Telly is a dual-screen smart TV designed around a 55-inch 4K HDR theater display and a second Smart Screen. The company positions it as a living-room hub for streaming, information, calling, games, fitness, music, and ambient lighting rather than a television built for video alone.

The site says the TV is pre-orderable for free and that ads shown on the second Smart Screen help pay for the product. Setup materials on the site cover unboxing, pairing the remote, connecting to Wi‑Fi or Ethernet, updating software, and pairing the Telly mobile app.

Key features

Dual-screen design

Combines a 55-inch 4K HDR theater display with a second Smart Screen below it, forming a dual-screen TV layout.

Integrated sound system

Includes a built-in six-driver sound bar and says the system is designed to deliver room-shaking bass and a cinema-style sound experience.

Live home screen

Uses the Smart Screen for live information such as news, sports scores, weather, stocks, and other widgets from the mobile app.

Video calling

Supports video calling from the main TV screen so users can talk with friends, family, and colleagues on a large display.

Entertainment and activity modes

Adds motion-tracking fitness programs, immersive backlighting, and a Game Room with more than 40 video games for living-room use.

Flexible external device support

Can work with the included 4K Android streaming dongle or other HDMI devices, and the site says the dongle is optional.

Common use cases

  • Watching TV with live context

    Use the top display for movies and shows while the lower Smart Screen surfaces news, weather, sports scores, or stock updates.

  • Large-screen video calling

    Place friends, family, or work colleagues on the biggest screen in the home for video calls.

  • At-home fitness

    Turn the room into a casual fitness space with motion-tracking workout programs and on-screen guidance.

  • Family entertainment

    Use the Game Room and backlighting features for family game nights and shared entertainment.

  • Using existing devices

    Connect a console, cable box, or streaming device through HDMI if you want to use Telly with gear you already own.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Dual-screen layout separates the main viewing area from a second information screen.
  • Built-in features extend beyond streaming to calling, fitness, games, music, and live widgets.
  • The included Android dongle is optional, so existing HDMI devices can still be used.
  • Setup documentation is available for the remote, mobile app pairing, external devices, and dongle setup.

Cons

  • The product is still presented as a beta experience, so the site frames it as something users help refine.
  • The site’s public pricing information is limited; it points to free pre-ordering rather than a standard published plan.
  • Some of the advertised experience depends on ad support and the second Smart Screen rather than a conventional subscription model.
