Vizo has unveiled the sequel to its Co-Star set-top box, dubbed the Co-Star LT.
The $80 box offers 1080p streaming, 3D, advanced HTML5 support and Vizio's Internet Apps Plus platform.
An interesting feature of the Internet Apps Platform is that it allows you to watch live TV while you browse through streaming apps like Netflix, Hulu Plus and YouTube allowing you to never not have something running.
Vizio says you can sync up your smartphone with select content, and the mobile device can then be used as a second screen, allowing you to switch between your TV and phone/tablet seamlessly.
"The latest generation of VIZIO Internet Apps Plus represents years of forward-looking development and design. Delivering more power through a new full-screen mode and enhanced multi-screen viewing features, the platform offers an incredibly intuitive and seamless entertainment experience," said Matt McRae, VIZIO Chief Technology Officer. "The Co-Star LT stream player's unique ability to integrate live TV and streaming apps, offers standard HDTV owners a simple upgrade option. One of the most advanced smart TV experiences on the market, the new VIZIO Internet Apps Plus platform also gives users access to the added convenience of second-screen interactivity."
