Samsung on Thursday unveiled its HomeSync media center that allows users to store, sync, and stream content from their mobile devices to their TVs.

 

The device, which will retail for $299 starting Oct. 6, runs Android and works only with Samsung mobile devices such as the Galaxy S4 or Galaxy Note 3.

The Android user interface on HomeSync is similar to that on Samsung Galaxy smartphones and tablets. It allows customers to use their Galaxy devices as remote controls to browse through various content on their TV, and users can access the box while on the go.

HomeSync also provides 1TB of storage for up to eight separate accounts and gives each user the option to sync, as well as upload and download mobile content. A photo or video taken by one family member can be seen by another family member either from their TV or through their connected mobile devices
