Users can connect these devices to their TV via HDMI to seamlessly watch TV broadcast (Must be connected to a set top box for cable TV or satellite broadcasting), enjoy apps, and browse the Internet. The  remote control is equipped with a touch pad, keyboard with back light, microphone for voice search (Only for Blu-ray Disc Player type) and game compliant 3 axis motion sensor which realizes easy operation.

In 2010, Sony introduced the first HDTV and Blu-ray Disc Player powered by Google TV. The new Network Media Player and Blu-ray Disc Player are scheduled to launch from early summer 2012, starting with North America and Europe and plan to expand into other countries and regions.

"We were the industry’s first to launch ‘Google TV’ platform products in 2010. By leveraging our Sony Internet TV know-how, we will offer new products with enhanced user experiences to more customers," added Masashi Imamura, senior vice president, corporate executive, and president of Home Entertainment Business Group, Sony Corporation. "Furthermore, we will create new value in home entertainment by strengthening the compatibility with BRAVIA TV as well as mobile devices."

"We’re excited about our strong partnership with Sony on Google TV. Consumers have reacted very positively to the Google TV software update of last October, and we are looking forward to bringing new devices of different form factors to consumers in multiple countries in 2012," said Mario Queiroz, VP Product Management, Google TV.

With Google TV users can seamlessly watch TV broadcast, enjoy apps, and browse the Internet. The fast search engine aggregates search results from TV programming and internet content such as YouTube and collectively displays the results for easy viewing. In addition, websites or apps can simultaneously be displayed on the same screen along with TV broadcast. Moreover, customers can enjoy over thousands apps for games, music, sports, news and more on Android Market including about 150 apps designed and optimized for TV with the latest version.

  • Mobile apps enhance cross-device connectivity: Mobile apps on mobile Android devices starting with Sony Tablet and ‘Xperia’ as well as others including iPad and iPhone allow for enhanced cross-device connectivity. ‘Media Remote’ enables customers to ‘throw’ the website on their mobile device to their TV, or send the website displayed on their TV to their mobile device.
