Major China Retailer Showcasing MHL TVs,
Smartphones and Accessories to Largest Consumer Market in the
World
MHL, LLC today announced that MHL® TVs, smartphones and
accessories are now featured in more than 100 Gome stores across
Beijing. Gome, one of the top retailers in China, has outfitted
each store with banners, signage and in-store demonstrations to
increase consumer awareness around MHL’s benefits and showcase
products that include MHL technology. The expanded rollout of MHL
products in Gome stores will continue over the course of 2014 and
beyond.
“Gome prides itself on carrying the latest mobile and consumer
electronics with a knowledgeable and tech-savvy staff who are
dedicated to delivering the highest level of customer
satisfaction,” said Li Xiaoning, general manager, Gome Accessory
Company. “Through these promotional launches, we hope that
consumers can make more informed purchasing decisions and get the
most out of their MHL products.”
“China is one of the largest markets in today’s global economy
and Chinese consumers demand the latest technologies,” said Rob
Tobias, president, MHL, LLC. “By continuing to work with top local
retailers such as Gome, our goal is that more consumers will have
direct access to MHL products that can transform their smartphones
beyond communications devices and into powerful gaming consoles,
portable offices and home theater systems.”
Today, there is an installed base of more than half a billion
MHL-enabled products worldwide, many from leading China
manufacturers. MHL-enabled products include smartphones, tablets,
DTVs, TV accessories, Blu-ray Disc™ players, audio / video (AV)
receivers, monitors, projectors, adapters, automotive accessories,
cables, and more.
The MHL 3.0 specification is ideally suited for the China
market, addressing the latest consumer requirements for connecting
a mobile device to larger displays, while simultaneously charging
the device. With double the bandwidth compared to the previous
version of the specification, MHL 3.0 delivers 4K (Ultra HD)
resolution and a wider color gamut to create a more brilliant
visual experience. By using a significantly faster bi-directional
channel, the specification enables concurrent 4K video and
high-speed peripheral support of mass storage and input devices
such as a touch screen, keyboard and mouse ideal for productivity
applications.
