Maybe you don't like Smart TVs for some reason, or maybe they're too expensive, or maybe you just have a good TV you don't feel is in need of being replaced. Whatever the reason, you might appreciate the new product from Samsung.

Said product is a Smart Media Player that supports Live TV and allows customers to access Internet applications like Amazon Instant Video, Netflix, Hulu, etc.

100 Smart TV apps can be installed and used actually, and there's even support for S-Recommendation engine, Allshare and Screen Mirroring feature (wireless streaming from Samsung phones, tablets, etc.).

The media player bears the part number GX-SM530F and has a price of $149.99 / €149.99. Sales will start on October 23, 2013.

Since Smart TVs cost in the thousands, getting one of these as an “upgrade” for normal displays is quite convenient.
