Vizio + Google = Future of TVs?
VIZIO + Google = Future of TVs?
In a massive advantage to internet search giant Google, the California based consumer electronics firm Vizio teams up with Google for the future of TVs introduced about implementing entertainment control system built in-to Google's streaming service Chromecast, rather than their competitors Apple. For about a couple of years now Vizio has worked behind Google to develop this smart system into a series of combinations from T.V remote to a music player and a secondary screen source etc.
Vizio's correspondent told sources that its company's choice of Google over others were mainly due to the flexibility in Chromecast's technology. He also stressed how Google's casting protocol would serve as the stepping stone to the next-generation living room experience.
The Mountain view based search engine incepted into streaming service by selling Chromecast for a mere 35USD or a little over 2000INR that can be plugged into your TV monitor's HDMI port to stream both audio and video. That began Google's introduction into streaming services with competitors including already existing firms like Roku which was already prominent then and also not to forget, Apple. While Roku's technology is mainly based on implementing technology directly into monitors, Apple continues to talk about redefining the experience of viewing a TV.
After massive sales amounting to a success of 20million US$, a newer second generation of devices were introduced which house only Chromecast audio along their flagship phones the Nexus 6P and its younger brother the Nexus 5X at Google I/O in September.
Vizio's latest generation of uHD flat panel displays termed the P-series which am not sure if it's meant for "premium" enhances your experiences with immersive ultra-color spectrum and integrates Chromecast directly thereby eliminating the need of an external source such as a dongle.
The remote controls for Vizio P-series TVs are now actually an android tablet which users can use to stream Netflix or even YouTube on the TV and even play games on the tablet itself.
