April 26, 2016 16.49 Europe/London By Robert Briel

WuakiTV_on_HisenseA dedicated Wuaki.tv button will be placed on the Hisense remote controls for its 2016 newly designed smart TV models.

At the same time, all Hisense 2016 smart TV models will give direct access to premium new release and UHD contents from Wuaki.tv to their users. Interestingly Wuaki.tv is now the only European VOD player to have a button on a smart TV remote control. Until now, only Netflix and YouTube are featured on some remotes.
