Samsung on Wednesday announced the launch of The Sero, the world's first mobile-optimized TV that has the ability to pivot between horizontal and vertical orientations, in India.

With The Sero, we want to tap in to the social media generation.

The Sero has been designed to seamlessly adapt and enhance whatever content the user is watching, bringing in a more optimized experience to consumers.
