Samsung brings to the MWC 2013 the HomeSync, a multi-functional media box running Android software. With a built-in 1TB hard drive, the little box serves as your home cloud to store your media content and files, and lets you share and stream content across multiple devices.
The HomeSync can sync with multiple devices for shared or private storage, and supports up to 8 separate accounts, making it ideal for a family to share files. You can connect the box to a HDTV via HDMI output and turn it into a media center for watching movies and TV shows. If you are using a Samsung Galaxy device, you can even use HomeSync to mirror the screen and stream content wirelessly to the TV (think about an Apple TV for Galaxy). The media box supports common media formats, including H.264, H.263, MPEG4, DivX, WMV, MP3, AAC, FLAC, WMA.
Running Jelly Bean, the HomeSync provides a familiar Android experience, allows users to download games and apps from Google Play Store and use/play them right on a HDTV. It is powered by a dual-core 1.7GHz processor with 1GB of RAM. The media hub supports Bluetooth 4.0, Gigabit Ethernet LAN and dual-band WiFi 802.11b/g/n connectivity.
Samsung will release the HomeSync in April in the US.
