The living room is no longer just the battlefield of traditional TV manufacturers, more and more Internet companies have gradually joined the battle for the living room terminal.

In the past month, whether positive or negative, LeTV’s topic has occupied many pages. It is clear that LeTV’s ambition is not only to launch smart TV products. This is more than 400 R&D teams from LeTV for three years. Creating a smart TV operating system can be seen, it wants to control more of the future.

The industry’s voices are different. Some say that as new entrants in the television field, Internet companies should “borrow with gallantism” with traditional TV manufacturers. This is a big money, and some say that the new force of the Internet will The traditional color TV manufacturers have had a huge impact, and traditional TV manufacturers are scared. Still, it is a game between new entrants and traditional forces in the smart TV field.

Indeed, Internet companies and traditional TV manufacturers have their own advantages and disadvantages. Internet companies such as LeTV, iQiyi, Xiaomi, Ali, etc. rely on content as the basic point, and at the same time cut into the operating system field. They are better at applying Internet thinking and are more close to the moment. Consumers, but they have fatal weaknesses in the hardware area, do not master hardware manufacturing. Traditional TV manufacturers have accumulated a great deal of experience and natural advantages in hardware production, sales channels, and distribution and after-sales services. They are able to control the end of products and then switch to applications. However, they lack content and need to be converted to the Internet. thinking.

Obviously, none of them can go it alone. In the battlefield for the living room terminal in the future, they are both rivals and partners who need to work together. Traditional TV manufacturers can exert strong hardware advantages, while Internet companies use the advantages of content and e-commerce payment areas to communicate and develop. The future will not only be smart TVs, but will also jointly push home intelligent systems to a more advanced direction. .

Of course, there are still many gaps that need to be struck in order to achieve such cooperation and win-win. This includes the concept of home intelligence system, the specific form of cooperation, and how interests are distributed. However, it is believed that one day in the future, these will no longer be problems. What will the home smart terminal be like at that time? I can't think of it now, but there will certainly be new changes in the field.
