MediaCom launches M-Droid device: Making your
CRT/Plasma/LED/LCD TV’s smarter than a Smart TV
Unleash the power of Android’s JellyBean OS on the big screen, with inbuilt Wi-Fi, English-Arabic Keyboard and Google Play
Dubai, UAE (December 17, 2013): MediaCom International LLC, the Gulf's leading karaoke
brand, that has provided high-tech devices and content to over half a million households across
the region, has recently launched the all new M-Droid. This device, once affixed to any TV, acts
as a portal to access a wide choice of your favourite content, entertainment sources,
productivity applications and social media forums. The smart TV computer comes with bilingual wireless keyboard (English & Arabic) and a 5MP camera with a mic from a renowned
brand; this enables the users to Skype with their loved ones on a larger TV screen. In short, it
replaces the laptop and/or PC and becomes a home computing device for both high-income
users and low-income families.
M-Droid has widespread functions including several different USPs, appealing to a universal
audience. Its key features include Skype, Live streaming: giving access to top TV channels that
are available on the Web, Chrome web browser, Google play store: to download from more
than 500,000 applications available on the play store and several social media apps like
Facebook, Twitter, YouTube etc pre-installed. It supports external HDD up to 2TB to function as
a multimedia storage hub. Mobile phone content can be displayed wirelessly on the TV screen.
Another added advantage is that it supports different types of TV screens including old CRT TVs,
provided it has an A/V output port. This function sets the device apart from other similar
devices available in the market. There are multiple connectivity options like Wi-Fi,
LAN/Ethernet and Hotspot that makes it easy for a user to connect the device to an Internet
port of choice. M-Droid has been selected by many top high-tech enthusiasts as the fastest and
most reliable OS and delivers clear high-resolution picture on any TV.
“MediaCom is extremely selective on developing futuristic, innovative and affordable products.
Currently the company is focusing on three product lines, such as Smart TV Computer, SingAlong Karaoke models and Ferrari accessories. The organization has a strong Research &
Development team that closely follows local and international trends and works closely with
the production unit to develop products that are customized to local demands,” said Mr.
Hussain Naqvi, CEO Mediacom.
Through this approach the M-Droid offers multiple benefits at a quarter of the price of a laptop
or a PC enabling low-income households to enter the high-tech and fast paced computing world
of today. They can also send an M-Droid to their families back home to learn computing, Skype
and to watch TV channels via the Internet connection.
M-Droid is available at all leading electronic retailers such as Emax, Plug-ins, Jackys and
MediaCom’s stand-alone stores across UAE. The product also has presence in KSA, Qatar,
