Samsung has said it is considering using Android to power a range of internet connected TVs. Yoon Boo Keun, head of the TV arm of Samsung, said: “We will have to see,” but that Samsung was “reviewing” whether to use Google’s Android operating system.
Half of the Samsung 3D TV line up already offers internet connectivity, through a desktop UI that can download apps such as BBC iPlayer and LoveFilm. Part of the question over whether to use Android was over South Korea’s content providers cooperating with Google.
