Huawei is currently the world’s second largest smartphone manufacturer but, unlike its main rivals of the Android market (Samsung and Xiaomi), it still hasn’t entered the TV market. According to a report from a Chinese media, the company has finally decided to launch its first TV. It seems that a supply chain executive confirmed that the Chinese giant will officially announce its first TV line-up next month.
According to the source, the new products will not just be simple TVs, but they will be a sort of home hubs with special social and gaming features. And in the era of cloud gaming and smart TVs, this would be perfect. But the upcoming TVs will not focus only on software-related features: according to the report, they will be equipped with dual cameras. The cameras included on the frame will be used for video chats and streaming.
Huawei TVs are said to come in variants with 55 and 65-inch diagonals and the display is expected to be manufactured by BOE and Shenzhen China Star Optoelectronics. They are rumored to come under the Huawei AI Window moniker. It seems that the most important smartphones manufacturers understood how important TVs are in the hi-tech world nowadays, and they want to aim at conquering the TV market too. Indeed, even OnePlus is planning the launch of a TV.
