OnePlus Smart TV: Everything That We Know Until Now

As usual, people come up with a flash thought of smartphone when talking about OnePlus. The Chinese company has gained a lot of reputations thanks to its smartphone lineup. However, OnePlus also make other electronics products, noting that it’s likely to release a smart TV soon under its own brand in late 2019. Plans of venturing for non-smartphone and related devices have been hinted since last year by CEO Pete Lau after he made an announcement that mentioned to a OnePlus smart TV.

Bluetooth SIG – the organization that gives certifications for Bluetooth devices – has passed a new remote control called “RC-001A” from OnePlus.

All About OnePlus has first spotted and reported this information. Through the Bluetooth SIG website, they found the remote’s name on an available listing with Bluetooth 4.2 support, meaning that the first smart TV of OnePlus may come with a Bluetooth remote. However, other details have not been revealed on the website.

Although the company has made any official announcement related to its smart TV, it could go public with the OnePlus TV very soon, according to longtime tipster Ishan Agarwal. It still remains unclear whether this smart TV sports a premium OLED screen or not, citing that many key competitors like Sony, Samsung, and LG are offering their smart TVs with OLED display.

As most other players are expanding their portfolio with not only smartphones but also other devices such as smart TVs, the move of OnePlus is understandable. At present, the Chinese brand is still a prominent competitor in the Indian smartphone market, but there are a lot of smartphone brands selling their own smart TVs there, including Xiaomi, LG, Sony, and Samsung. Whether a OnePlus smart TV can take on those well-known products? Well, all OnePlus need to do is to take part in a long-run race.
