Android smart
TV in China, and now a third company is entering the battle for the living room!
Skyworth are already one of the larger
TV makers in China, but a new collaboration with
Alibaba will see the company manufacture
smart TV’s running the Android based
Aliyun OS under the “Cool On” brand.

models of
TV will initially be offered starting with a 2D only 42-inch model priced at just 1999 Yuan. A mid range
3D version and 55-inch
