TOKYO: Philips TVs will survive due to following features, Ambilight colour reproduction, European premium craftsmanship, award-winning picture quality, powerful sound solutions and Android-powered Smart TV functionality that’s the message from global marketing lead Marc Harmsen at TP Vision, the television licensee for the famous Dutch brand.
The last feature in that list, Smart TV based on Android Lollipop, is perhaps the most significant and will be included in 80 percent of all Philips TVs in 2015. The popularity of streaming video on demand services has grown exponentially over the past few years, to the point where half of all UK owners are accessing content through providers like Netflix, according to data quoted by Harmsen. This is a trend that is expected to be replicated in Australia, where Netflix, Stan and Presto have all experienced high visibility starts to life and, at least for Netflix, very good take-up.
