LG Electronics is hoping to make its smart TVs more attractive by making it easier to share and find content, while Samsung Electronics is only hinting at what its plans are for 2013. Both companies will present new TV hardware and software at the International CES trade show in Las Vegas next week.
LG's TVs will make it easier to share content with a feature called Tag On, which uses NFC (near-field communication) to connect a TV with a smartphone or other compatible devices. To connect, users just have to hold a smartphone or some other NFC-enabled device against an NFC sticker on the TV, the company said on Monday.
A recommendation function called On Now will suggest trending on-demand and broadcast content. Results pop up in thumbnail images, making it faster and easier for the viewer to make a selection, according to LG.
The TVs will also have thinner bezels, the frames that surround TV screens.
