Being able to receive and display television signals on a mobile phone is by no means a new technology, however, it is probably one of the first times we've seen it being implemented by a branded manufacturer like Samsung. The device with the built-in TV antenna is called the Samsung Galaxy S II TV and while it doesn't have much to do with the Samsung Galaxy S II it does offer some interesting tech specs such as:
- 1GHz dual-core processor
- 4-inch screen (800 x 480)
- 4GB storage + microSD slot
- 5MP rear camera
- 1500 mAh battery
- Android 4.2.2
- Supports Dual-SIM
These tech specs are decidedly entry-level to midrange and we worry somewhat about the rather limited battery, considering that previous mobile TV enabled mobile phones tend to have a really bad battery drain especially when watching TV. For now, the Samsung Galaxy S II TV is headed for Brazil with no news just yet for how much or when it would be available in Malaysia and other parts of the world.
