PPDS (aka: Philips Professional Displays) announced the launch of a new line of Philips Hospitality TVs with Chromecast built in. The Philips Hospitality TV 4500 Series is an entry-level product line. Launching in 24”, 32”, 43” 50”, 55” and 65” sizes, PPDS says the TVs are native 4K UHD and include two 10-watt built-in speakers with Dolby Atmos. The lineup includes local and international linear and non-linear channels, catch-up services and pay-per-view offerings, such as MyChoice.

Running on Android 11, PPDS says users can enjoy access to thousands of popular apps on Google Play, including popular services such as local news, sports and games, as well as content streaming from an ever-growing list of providers.

The Philips Hospitality TV 4500 Series also comes with an extensive choice of exclusive remote management and monitoring capabilities, with a suite of new features allowing TVs to be “perfectly tailored” to meet the needs and requirements to suit a variety of healthcare and hotel room settings. CMND provides 24/7 monitoring and management of all Philips Hospitality TVs on the network, reducing the need for physical guest room visits (if applicable), for any updates, retuning or troubleshooting, according to PPDS. This helps to limit potential interruption or inconvenience while creating more sustainable business practices.
