Telly

The catch? Each TV is coupled with a second screen that displays nonstop ads. Developed by Telly, the hardware startup is centered around a new 55-inch 4K HDR TV equipped with a built in-soundbar — and required, second screen. The extra screen is mounted underneath the main TV and designed to show a mix of informational widgets and traditional ads. It cannot be disabled. The brand was founded by Ilya Pozin who previously co founded Pluto TV (a free streaming service). Now, the brand has opened its waitlist with the intention of shipping out 500,000 free TVs in 2023.
