Vizio, a company best known for its LCD TV products, has announced the launch of an Android-based smartphone and tablet.

Known as the Vizio VIA Phone and Vizio VIA Tablet (which may or may not be their final names), the devices share a solid amount of features: A 1 GHz processor, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, GPS, a MicroSD card slot, HDMI output with HD video playback, an IR blaster paired with a universal remote control app and a front-facing camera for video chats.

The VIA Phone comes with a 4-inch capacitive touch screen and a 5-megapixel camera. The tablet, on the other hand, has an 8-inch screen and three speakers that provide stereo sound in both portrait and landscape position.
