Samsung Committing to Google TV, Unveiling it at CES 2011

7

Samsung may have beat Google to the market with the first round of mainstream “internet TV” with apps support, but it sounds like they’d rather ditch their home-brewed offering for what Google’s brought to the table. They’ve announced plans to embed Google TV technology into a new line of their products and it’s been confirmed that it’ll get an on-stage product reveal at the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. No details yet, but the TVs will most likely use Intel chipsets to power it along. It’s great that Samsung’s squaring up with their biggest competitor – Sony – with this move. Let’s see if they’ll end up revealing a whole range of Google TV devices before too long. [Samsung Hub]

The "Google Phone" sounded too awesome to pass up, so I bought a G1. The rest is history. And yes, I know my name isn't Wilson.

  1. Thank you Samsung… you’ve expanded my TV search to include competition to the only 2 brands of TV I’d buy anyway…

  2. Thank you Samsung for switching platforms after I purchased my 3D LED TV this year. I may as well enjoy the Internet@TV now before getting completely left in the cold…

  3. I’m with Brad, I also recently bought a 3D LED Samsung. Hoping that there will be an update to Google TV.

  4. Samsung/Google combo is turning out to be Dell/Microsoft combo

  5. As long as they release decent Google TVs – seriously Sony, 60 Hz???

  6. @Andy Sony probably bought those LCD panels from either Samsung or Sharp.

  7. just buy the upcoming blu-rays with google tv, no need to worry about your tv…..
