Amazon-Branded TVs Could Come As Soon As Next Month: What You Need To Know
Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) is planning to launch Amazon-branded TVs as soon as October in the United States, according to a report by Business Insider (via The Verge).
What Happened: The Amazon-branded television sets will have screen sizes “in the range of 55 to 75 inches” and will have compatibility with voice assistant Alexa, as per the report.
发生了什么：报告称，亚马逊品牌的电视机的屏幕尺寸将 “在55至75英寸之间”，并将与语音助手Alexa兼容。
While the TVs will be currently designed and manufactured by third parties, including TCL Electronics Holdings Limited (OTC:TCLHF), Amazon is also designing another TV in-house, the report noted. It is not clear when the in-house developed TV will be launched.
虽然电视目前将由第三方设计和制造，包括TCL电子控股有限公司（OTC：TCLHF），报告指出，亚马逊还在内部设计另一台电视。目前尚不清楚内部开发的电视何时推出。
Why It Matters: Amazon’s plan to launch its own branded TV would put the company directly in competition with electronics giants like Samsung and LG Electronics Inc. It could also help the company develop an ecosystem of Amazon devices and services, similar to that of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL).
为何重要：亚马逊推出自有品牌电视的计划将使该公司直接与三星和LG电子公司等电子巨头竞争。它还可以帮助该公司开发类似于苹果公司（纳斯达克：AAPL)。
Amazon already has a partnership with Best Buy Co. Inc. (NYSE:BBY) to sell Insignia and Toshiba TVs that run Amazon’s Fire TV software. The company also launched its first series of televisions under the AmazonBasics brand in India late last year.
亚马逊已经与百思买公司建立了合作伙伴关系。Inc.（纽约证券交易所：BBY）出售运行亚马逊Fire TV软件的Insignia和东芝电视。去年年底，该公司还在印度推出了首批AmazonBasics品牌的电视机。
