DNA has become the first operator in Finland to offer Netflix in the 4K format.
The streaming service is being added to the DNA TV hub as part of the latest software update. Customers need a 4K television and a Netflix 4K subscription. The recommended broadband speed for Netflix 4K-content is 25 Mbit/s.
“Netflix is a major addition to the services offered by DNA TV-hubi. Its 4K feature, in particular, will take the viewing of content into a new era,” says Mikko Saarentaus, Director at DNA Entertainment Business.
DNA began sales of the Sagemcom-manufactured DNA TV-hubi this summer.
”Sales of DNA TV-hubi have got off to a brisk start, which shows that Finns are keen to switch to a new kind of television viewing,” Saarentaus comments.
The Android-based device combines a digibox, internet applications, games and music into a single package. It features an app store with applications provided by the three biggest Finnish TV channels; Katsomo, Yle Areena and Ruutu alongside YouTube, Deezer and now Netflix.
