The Beatles once asked if we want a revolution? Now it looks like we’re getting it right in the comfort of our own living rooms.
Now we don’t have to buy those pricey internet TVs to get our entertainment fix. With a little black box called TVolution, we can now transform our ordinary TV sets into one that streams our favorite movies and TV series direct from the world wide web.
The product, the size of which fits in the palm of one hand and about the size of a typical cigarette pack in terms of height, was recently launched to the entertainment media.
Powered by PLDT Home’s Fibr broadband technology with dedicated speeds of up to 100 mbps, TVolution promises topnotch multimedia entertainment, including a database of over 300 of the latest Hollywood movies like “Man of Steel”, “Pacific Steel”, “The Conjuring” and “The Great Gatsby”.
And because it runs on powerful and, according to PLDT EVP and head of Home business Ariel P. Fermin, ultra-fast technology, subscribers are not likely to experience that dreaded buffering they get when watching even with relatively low-resolution YouTube short videos.
“That’s because the movies are already preloaded into your set. It’s hassle-free because the titles you’re looking for are available when you want them,” Dujali added.
Gary Dujali, head of PLDT’s Fibr group, also noted that since PLDT Home has partnered with the likes of EA Games, Cignal, News5 Everywhere, Smart Music, Clickplay and MyPinoyTV, the content that can be browsed, viewed and enjoyed on TVolution is not limited to movies and TV series alone.
“Yes, TVoltuion allows you to watch movies, it allows you to watch TV series but it also allows you to browse whatever’s in your computer,” he stressed.
Dujali added the device is also packed with pre-installed Android apps that deliver the hottest news, music and games, including the “Angry Birds” series and that über popular “Candy Crush Saga”. Pay-per-view TV specials like the fights of Manny Pacquiao and international beauty pageants will likewise be accessible via smooth live streaming to Fibr subscribers with TVolution devices.
PLDT Home’s partnership with Clickplay.ph in particular is huge for teleserye fans as it covers a large database of local and Korean telenovelas dubbed in Tagalog such as “Kim Sam Soon”, “Petty Romance” and “Sweet 18”.
Dujali said it doesn’t cost much to start enjoying the TVolution. “It’s only P199 on top of your Fibr plan,” he revealed.
In addition to TVolution, PLDT Home will also introduce an enhanced tablet and landline service with the Quad Core Telpad.
Apart from all these new technology, PLDT Home is set to announce more landmark partnerships with top content providers over the course of 2014.
“We have gone beyond telecommunications,” Fermin pointed out. “PLDT Home is now a full-service multimedia company, changing with the times to offer solutions that meet the ever-evolving communication needs of Filipino families.”
