Google reportedly certifies OnePlus TV as an Android TV

OnePlus TV might be using Google's Android TV platform and Google Play, after all. @AndroidTV_Rumors spotted certification for a device codenamed Dosa from OnePlus, which is targeted at India. OnePlus TV is reportedly being launched first in that country on September 26th, so the timing of the certification makes sense.

Rumour has it that the OnePlus TV was supposed to use a "unique" version of Android. But Google wouldn't certify custom versions of Android to use the Play Store. So, this might mean instead of creating that custom platform, OnePlus opted to use Google's. Having access to Android TV's features and the Play Store's many apps will make OnePlus' entry into the TV market more compelling.
