The CEO and founder of the company, Pete Lau, announced that the new step of the company is OnePlus TV, a new type of "smart" TV that can provide continuous connection to your smartphone.
This is a very important project for OnePlus and will be a premium product, which will benefit from the company's years of experience in software and hardware.
"Right now, we feel that the TV market remains traditional in terms of its functionality and the experience it offers. "The use of the internet has not been properly integrated into this experience, as we would expect with today's data," Lau said.
The company did not go into details about this project. We do not yet know if we will have a box in the form of a decoder or maybe even a real TV that will replace your current one, but also if it will support the current standards.
OnePlus is in discussions with major companies in the field of artificial intelligence and will probably work with some of them. There will be a camera in the new OnePlus TV, which will be a focal point of the new experience, allowing video calling and the company has already hinted for security issues and that it is a given that all procedures to ensure privacy will be followed.
As usual, the company asks the community for new ideas and usually the most important ones are integrated into the new products.
OnePlus TV has just started to grow, so we will be late to see something, but the investment is a given, so maybe next year we will see some first information.
