Just like the HTC One, the Samsung Galaxy S 4 features an IR blaster along with a companion app to see what’s on TV and get recommendations. Samsung’s version is called WatchON and doesn’t appear to be as robust as HTC TV, but it gets the job done. WatchON lets you control your TV as well as a cable or satellite box through the IR blaster at the top of Galaxy S 4. You will need to go through an initial setup, but soon after, you will be able see your TV guide on your GS4 and get recommendations based on your interests. Just tap on a show or sporting event to get more information and once more to change the channel to that particular program. We put together this hands on video showing you how to set it up as well as some of the features from the WatchON app. Skip on past the break to see how it works, and don’t forget to check out our other Galaxy S 4 guides.
