New TiVo-driven Smart TVs with sharper features hit American markets
SAN JOSE, Calif. - Say goodbye to complications and hello to entertainment with the latest Sharp 55-inch QLED Smart TVs, powered by TiVo. These bad boys are now available in the U.S., ready to revolutionize your living room experience!
At CES 2025, TiVo teamed up with Sharp Home Electronics Company of America, marking a significant step in the expansion of smart TVs powered by TiVo. You can grab one for yourself at P.C. Richard & Son, ABC Warehouse, Electronic Express, and more, or snag one online, starting at a pocket-friendly $299.99.
Geir Skaaden, chief products and services officer at Xperi, the parent company of TiVo, sees a demand for hassle-free content access. "People want their favorite shows and movies at their fingertips, without jumping through hoops," Skaaden stated. "We're making that happen with TiVo OS. It's here to make content discovery a breeze."
Xperi conducted a survey of 1,001 U.S. consumers to understand feelings towards smart TVs and how they're used. The findings showed that image quality, content availability, and personal recommendations were key purchase factors, with the price often proving decisive.
Smart TVs, while becoming common in households, are mainly chosen based on brand, as opposed to the operating system platform, which directly impacts video content discovery and enjoyment.
The survey also revealed concerns about content discovery on many TVs. No worries, though, because smart TVs powered by TiVo offer a simple, intuitive interface that simplifies content discovery and makes it a breeze to find what you want to watch.
TiVo OS partners with top content providers like Disney+, Max, Netflix, Prime Video, and YouTube to ensure a top-notch viewing experience. Plus, it brings valuable additions like TiVo+, which offers over 160 free channels of live and on-demand content. And it supports Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos sound for an immersive audiovisual experience.
Compared to platforms like Android TV on Sharp’s other models, TiVo OS offers a more streamlined and personalized experience. Android TV supports many streaming apps, but it lacks the deep integration and unification of live and streaming content into a single, curated interface that TiVo OS provides, making it a more enjoyable viewing experience overall.
So, take charge of your viewing experience and get ready to lose yourself in endless entertainment with the new Sharp Smart TVs, powered by Tivo. Get your hands on one today and start enjoying shows and movies like never before!
