PPDS Announces the Philips MediaSuite with Android TV OS

With Chromecast built-in featured as standard on all Philips MediaSuite TVs, guests can cast and enjoy movies, videos, presentations, and more, in up to 4K, from their personal device (Android, iOS), giving them greater control on how and what they watch on the TV.
The functionality within the Philips MediaSuite eliminates the need for external set-top boxes and hardware to manage brand messaging, guest customization and channel management, and removes the risk of theft, while keeping external wiring to a minimum for more secure, cleaner installations. The inclusion of Chromecast built-in simplifies the installation process further and can bring cost savings. It removes the need for additional hardware investments, app downloads, servicing costs, and recurring monthly subscription agreements – estimated at more than $250 per room. It allows users to cast confidently, safe in the knowledge that their data will be wiped from the TV at check-out.
Users have secure access to thousands of popular apps on Google Play, including popular services such as local news, sports, games, as well as content streaming from providers such as Disney+, HBO, Hulu, HBO, Paramount, Spotify and more.
With hygiene being top of mind for hoteliers and guests alike, Philips MediaSuite 6214U TVs also now come equipped with a Philips Premium Hygienic Remote Control. Made from anti-microbial materials, the remote is entirely cavity-free – including no raised buttons and an anti-theft battery cover — allowing for fast and simple cleaning and reducing the risk of spreading harmful germs and bacteria.
