Samsung release new HomeSync integrates Android with your TV

Design
The Samsung HomeSync is packaged in a minimalist glossy black box, and it's about the size of three DVD cases stacked on top of one another. When placed on a flat counter top, it sits at a slight angle upward and you can see Samsung's name emblazoned on the left side.
On the back are several output connections, which include an Ethernet port, a digital audio port, two USB 3.0 ports, an HDMI port, a Micro-USB port, and finally a port for the power. The power and settings buttons are located on the right edge.

Features
HomeSync incorporates an Android Jelly Bean interface on your TV. It has a 1TB capacity, and is powered by a 1.7GHz dual-core processor.
You can access the same apps that appear in your handset -- some of which include Google Play and Music, your photo gallery, YouTube, and the Web browser. Native Samsung apps are also fair game, like its branded Media and Music hubs.
Through the HomeSync app, you can also turn your handset into a TV remote that can control the media hub. Its touch screen can act as a remote touch pad, and your movements will be indicated by a mouse cursor. You can also switch modes and use the phone itself as the remote, moving it around in front of the TV and selecting buttons similar to a Wii remote.
