Ekkaa TVs will run Tizen OS as India TV joins Samsung TV Plus

Indian TV manufacturer Ekkaa Electronics has partnered with Samsung to bring cutting-edge technologies and a better viewing experience to its customers. As part of this collaboration, future Ekkaa LED smart TVs will run on Samsung's Tizen operating system and support Samsung services such as TV Plus.

Samsung announced the opening of its Tizen platform to other smart TV manufacturers in 2021. Since then, several TV makers have joined Samsung's Tizen OS program, and Ekkaa Electronics is now adding to the list (via PSU Cornner).

Thanks to Tizen OS, upcoming Ekkaa LED smart TVs will be more secure and feature-rich and have access to services like Samsung TV Plus, which now offers more than 100 free channels in India.

India TV Group joins TV Plus

Coincidentally, in other news, India TV Group announced this week that it is joining the Samsung TV Platform (via PIM).

This collaboration will bring India TV Group exclusive channels, such as India TV, India TV Speed News, India TV Aap Ki Adalat, and India TV Yoga, to the free, ad-based Samsung TV Plus network.
