The G32 is a Google TV reference remote built by Ohsung Electronics and powered by Swedish startup Epishine's indoor solar cells. This isn't a one-off concept, but a template TV makers can adopt for their own Google TV devices. The goal is a self-charging, maintenance-free remote that never needs disposable batteries and quietly reduces waste in the background while sitting on your coffee table between Netflix binges.

You can now buy TCL's new QM9K series QD-Mini LED TVs, and they run Google TV, are the first to come with Gemini AI, and have a built-in mmWave presence sensor, as reported by 9to5Google. The TVs start at $2,999 for the 65-inch model at Best Buy, with the price going up even more for the bigger versions (up to 98 inches).

Google first introduced Gemini for its TV operating system at CES in January, pitching the voice assistant's ability to process natural language and offer highly contextual responses. The idea was that Gemini could not only surface shows, movies, and channel recommendations across the TV's catalog of streaming services and apps but also handle general inquiries like homework problems, vacation planning, and more. The end goal? An AI-driven experience that's burdenless and easy to navigate (whether through text or speech) and transforms your TV into the ultimate centerpiece. Beyond serving as a multimedia consumption device, a Gemini-enhanced TV should feel more like an interactive smart hub, an information resource that removes some of the friction from constantly picking up our smartphones.
