''Android'' is definitely one the best things that ever happened to the
technology world in a long while. Since its purchase by Google in 2005 ,
android has paved way for development in the tech aspect of our lives.
Its flexibility is second to none and this has been proven times without
number. This morning , i just got the news of a Philips ''Android Tv''
that is expected to launch in Q2 of 2014. Surprised as i was , i decided
to Google on this tv and i found out it was true. So What Exactly Is Philips Android Tv All About?? Lets find out!.
As the name implies , Philips android tv ''is a tv that runs on android
operating system''. It features an eye-popping Ultra HD display and the
smart TV runs Android 4.2.2 right out of the box. The television join
Philips’ 8000 series. While the 48-inch and 55-inch models have a 1080p
resolution, the 8800 is the UHD model that has the 3840×2160 resolution
with Android Os installed in its system. How is this possible?? ;
Philips engineers tweaked the interface of the operating system and ran
android 4.4.2 version on a Marvell Chipset. Doing this wasn't easy ,
considering the fact that the the operating system is designed to work
mainly on smartphones.
Philips is also investigating control methods, as Apps are designed for touchscreen devices, not TVs. It's possible that a touchpad could be integrated into the remote, but a video demonstration showed the remote been as a wand to move an on-screen cursor, while a keyboard on the rear makes for entering text a lot easier. The TV will also have voice commands.
