Elon Musk unveils Tesla Smart TV 2025 with groundbreaking features that redefine home entertainment

By Burnett Munthali

In a thrilling reveal that has stirred excitement across the tech world, Elon Musk has officially unveiled the Tesla Smart TV 2025, a futuristic innovation that promises to revolutionize home entertainment.

The Tesla CEO, known for his audacious ventures in electric vehicles, space travel, and artificial intelligence, has now set his sights on transforming the living room.

During the launch event streamed live to millions of viewers worldwide, Musk described the new Tesla Smart TV as “the most intelligent and immersive screen experience ever created.”



At first glance, the Tesla Smart TV 2025 boasts a sleek, frameless design, embodying minimalism while enhancing its futuristic aesthetic.

Under the hood, however, lies a powerhouse of intelligent technology that goes far beyond traditional television expectations.

The Smart TV is powered by Tesla’s proprietary AI chipset, adapted from its self-driving vehicle systems, allowing it to learn user preferences, recommend content proactively, and even adjust settings dynamically based on environmental cues.

Among its standout features is NeuralVision™, a Tesla-exclusive technology that uses AI to upscale content to 16K resolution in real time, offering breathtaking clarity never before seen on consumer displays.

In addition to its visual prowess, the TV comes equipped with ImmersiSound™, a 360-degree spatial audio system developed in partnership with SpaceX acoustics engineers.

Tesla’s voice assistant, Optimus Voice, takes center stage in interactivity, allowing users to control every aspect of their smart home, browse the internet, and stream content using natural, conversational language.

What sets the Tesla Smart TV apart even further is its integration with Tesla’s broader ecosystem—users can check the status of their Tesla cars, view live footage from Starlink satellites, and even attend virtual meetings in full holographic mode.

Musk also introduced the TV’s unique Gaming Reactor Core™, an onboard gaming engine capable of rendering AAA games natively without the need for an external console.

Gamers and content creators will be pleased to learn that the TV includes built-in VR and AR compatibility, effectively turning any room into an interactive media studio.

One of the most talked-about features is the Smart Sleep Mode, which gradually dims the screen, synchronizes with the user’s circadian rhythm, and even plays neural-synchronized sleep music composed by Tesla’s AI.

In terms of connectivity, the Tesla Smart TV 2025 offers Starlink streaming, 6G compatibility, and TeslaMesh™, which allows seamless syncing with all Tesla devices in the home or vehicle.

The TV runs on TeslaOS 3.0, a redesigned operating system featuring a smooth, holographic interface and direct access to Tesla’s growing digital marketplace.

In a bold move, Musk announced that every Tesla Smart TV would come with lifetime updates and sustainability guarantees, including solar-powered backup energy options.

Critics and enthusiasts alike have hailed the unveiling as a game-changer, noting how Tesla continues to blur the lines between technology, convenience, and lifestyle.

With pre-orders opening immediately after the announcement, anticipation is sky-high for what could be Tesla’s most surprising innovation yet.

Elon Musk ended the presentation with a characteristically bold statement: “Why just watch the future, when you can live in it?”

The Tesla Smart TV 2025 is more than a screen—it’s a portal into the next era of connected, intelligent living.

A 41-year-old woman, Tiyanjane Macdonald, has been fined K650,000 by the Blantyre Central Second Grade Magistrate’s Court for acts intended to cause grievous harm.

The fine was imposed after Macdonald pleaded guilty to pouring hot water on her husband, causing serious injuries, in a violent domestic incident on May 25, 2025.

The incident occurred when Macdonald confronted her husband at Majiga market after seeing him talking to a woman she did not recognize.



The situation escalated into a physical altercation, and later that night, Macdonald poured hot water on her husband while he was asleep, causing serious injuries.

The Ndirande Police Station was informed, and the victim was taken to Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital for treatment.

The prosecution, led by Felezia Zaina, argued that the act was premeditated and a serious form of domestic violence, warranting a harsh penalty.

Magistrate Mary Goman agreed with the prosecution and imposed a K650,000 fine, stating that it would serve as a deterrent to others.

Macdonald, who comes from Sidyani Village in Balaka District, had asked the court for leniency, but the court prioritized the severity of the offense.

The appointments follow the expiry of the tenure of the previous commissioners, who had served under both the 2019 and 2020 elections.

The newly appointed commissioners are expected to bring renewed energy, integrity, and professionalism to the Commission as it prepares for future electoral processes.

Their appointment also comes amid growing public expectations for transparency, fairness, and credibility in the administration of elections in Malawi.

According to the Office of the President and Cabinet (OPC), the appointments were made in line with Section 4 of the Electoral Commission Act and after due consultations with political parties represented in Parliament.

The composition of the new Commission reflects a broader effort to ensure political inclusivity and operational independence in line with the country’s democratic values.

President Chakwera has urged the newly appointed commissioners to carry out their duties with impartiality, diligence, and fidelity to the Constitution of Malawi.

He emphasized the critical role the Electoral Commission plays in sustaining the democratic gains Malawi has made over the years.

As the nation anticipates the 2025 general elections, the spotlight now turns to the MEC and its ability to foster public trust and uphold the rule of law.

The President also reiterated his administration’s commitment to electoral reforms that promote free, fair, and credible elections in Malawi.

Political analysts and civil society organizations have welcomed the appointments, urging the new commissioners to prioritize electoral integrity and institutional efficiency.

The new commissioners will immediately begin preparations for upcoming by-elections and voter registration exercises across the country.

Their success will be judged not only by their ability to deliver credible elections but also by their responsiveness to electoral complaints and stakeholder engagement.

The nation will be watching closely to see whether this new team can rise to the occasion and deliver on the promise of a stronger democratic process.

The appointments signal a fresh chapter in the operations of the MEC and provide an opportunity to rebuild public confidence in Malawi’s electoral system.
