Strategy Analytics recently did a report on Smart TV market share in the US. Sammy had 29.6% and Vizio had 24.4% of Smart TV share.
That's interesting, but the bigger question to me is how many people actually use the Smart TV feature? The reason I ask is last night I was at a friends house who had a recently purchased Sammy LCD TV. What was he using for his "Smart TV"? Tivo and Apple TV. I found it ironic that he could get similiar functionality with the Smart TV part of his Sammy, but he was using other components.
I think that speaks volumes to how relevant Smart TV is to consumers...
Do you use the Smart TV functionality in your TV?
