As the years have passed since the launch of the first OnePlus, the Asian company has gradually made an important niche in the market and currently offers its products practically all over the world, not only through its website, but also through Amazon and various operators.
Now that it is a more well-known brand, OnePlus has decided that it is time to start expand its market being that of televisions the first where you plan to enter. To announce its entry into this segment, the company's chief executive, Pete Lau, has published an image of what the control knob will be.
As we can see in the image above, the control of OnePlus televisions is practically a copy of the one we can currently find on Apple TV. The only thing that varies is the arrangement of the buttons, otherwise the inspiration / copy would be very blatant.
This remote will have a USB-C connection to be able to charge it and integrates a microphone with which we can interact with the Google assistant. At the top, we find a touch surface that allows us to quickly navigate through the TV menus, a TV that is logically managed by Android TV.
Moment We do not have more details about the features and availability that the OnePlus televisions will have. It will not be until the end of the month when they are officially announced, so if you plan to renew your old TV and the OnePlus bet may enter what you are looking for, it may be a good idea to wait.
OnePlus is not among the manufacturers authorized by Apple to include AirPlay 2 (Samsung, LG, Sony and Vzio), so if this is one of the requirements to renew your old television, you can already discard it. If, on the other hand, you have an Apple TV or are interested in getting one, you should wait for the event next Tuesday, since it is quite likely that a new Apple TV is introduced, the successor to the Apple TV 4K.
