The home dashboard promotes ease of use by providing instant access to content and apps on a single landing page. The firm's Magic Motion remote enables "point-and-click" capability and advanced interactivity for programs such as an onscreen coloring book. There will be more content sharing ranging from uploading of user-generated media to wireless remote streaming from the TV to gadgets.
LG plans to showcase a selection of services such as YouTube and video-on-demand Maxdome at the upcoming Berlin tradeshow running from September 3 to 8. Furthermore, the firm will be collaborating with key content providers to beef up its TV app offerings, including the possibility of Pay TV subscriptions. That said, the new Smart TV system bears a close resemblance to Samsung Apps.
