Philips has
confirmed that its new range of Android-powered Smart TVs will have access to
Google Play and to all of Philips' own Smart TV apps
Philips has
announced it will be launching Android-powered Smart TVs in 2014. The company
has confirmed that the new Ambilight TVs will have full access to both Google
Play and the current range of Philips Smart TV apps.
Although we
don't have any models, pictures or specs what we do know is that the TVs will
be powered by a 'powerful quad-core chip' with Philips suggesting that they'll
be more than up to the task of handling even the most hardcore HD Android
games.
By merging
Google Play with their own offering of Smart TV apps Philips is no doubt hoping
to gain an advantage over the array of Smart TVs which have been appearing in
the last year.
One of the
most notable competitors will almost certainly be the arrival of LG's webOS
powered Smart TVs which, although not officially announced, have already been
spotted in the halls at CES 2014.
If you're
hoping to get your hands on an Android-powered Philips TV then the company has
pegged a release date of around June 2014 and has confirmed that Android will
only be heading to their top-of-the-range Ambilight TVs.
