New Community Fibre TV - Don't just watch it. Play it.
Add TV to your package from £12/month.
Your TV isn't just for watching anymore. Access 200+ channels, live sport, your favourite streaming apps and unlimited cloud gaming – all from just £12/month.
Featuring Freeview, blockbuster movies, live sport and the very best streaming services

=>> Transitioning from the current Community Fibre TV offering (powered by Netgem) to the new PLEIO platform (also developed by Netgem) brings several key improvements focused on simplicity and next-generation streaming! ==> Key enhancements with PLEIO:
• Integrated Freely technology: The PLEIO platform incorporates Freely, allowing you to watch live television (channels such as BBC, ITV, Channel 4, etc.) directly via IP streaming—no rooftop aerial required.
• A unified "Watch, Stream, and Play" experience: PLEIO brings together live TV, catch-up services, streaming apps (Netflix, Prime Video, NOW, etc.), and cloud gaming all in one place.
• Cloud gaming included: The PLEIO service provides access to a catalog of cloud-based games (using a dedicated controller, with no need for downloads or heavy installations on the device itself).
• Simplified interface: Designed to eliminate the complexity of juggling multiple apps or switching between various sources, the interface aggregates recommendations based on the household's viewing habits.
• Updated hardware: The new device (PLEIO Puck) and its voice-enabled remote control replace the previous, traditional Netgem 4K set-top box, while maintaining full 4K and HDR compatibility.

Overall, the PLEIO Puck is the best choice for modern use; however, the older Netgem 4K box (available via Community Fibre) retains one specific technical advantage if you prefer a wired connection.

Here is how to choose the best device for your needs:
Why the PLEIO Puck is the clear winner: 🏆
• Modern ecosystem (Android TV 14): Unlike the older box, which used a closed system, the PLEIO Puck integrates with Google’s official app catalog. You get a much smoother, faster, and more future-proof interface.
• More storage space: With 32GB of memory (compared to less than 8GB on the older model), you can install plenty of apps without running out of space. • Great for gamers: It is the only device that includes a game controller and is optimized for cloud gaming.
• Completely discreet: Weighing just 40 grams and roughly the size of a coaster, it can be tucked away entirely behind your television.

The only scenario where the older Netgem 4K box remains the "better" choice: 🔌 • Wired internet connection: If your Wi-Fi signal is unstable where your TV is located, the older box features a physical Ethernet (RJ45) port for a wired connection. The PLEIO Puck, by contrast, operates exclusively via Wi-Fi.
In summary: If you have a reliable Wi-Fi connection in your living room, the PLEIO Puck is clearly superior in terms of performance, features, and long-term technological viability.

Point d’activité du T3: Vodafone in, TalkTalk out

Après sorti le Point d’activité du T3 de Netgem,
EuroLand Corporate •15/10/2026 à 08:48:

​ "Nous réitérons notre recommandation à Achat et notre OC de 1,5€ sur le titre."
"A retenir:
• Vodafone TV commercialisé depuis le 2 octobre 2026 avec un prix compétitif
• Sortie de TalkTalk du portefeuille après sa reprise par BT, avec une dépréciation accélérée de 0,65 M€
• Recommandation Achat confirmée, objectif de cours de 1,5 €"

"La commercialisation de l’offre Vodafone TV UK a débuté le 2 octobre 2026, face à Sky, dans un positionnement offensif: À contenus comparables, Vodafone est donc près de 30 % moins cher, avec en prime les chaînes gratuites de Freely intégrées au boîtier. Netgem est cité comme fournisseur dans les notes du communiqué Vodafone UK, et non effacé derrière la marque de l’opérateur. Vodafone pousse par ailleurs fort au recrutement : jusqu’au 28 octobre, la formule à 17 £ est offerte pendant 24 mois à tout nouveau client Pro Broadband, son offre haut de gamme, et l’opérateur rembourse jusqu’à 300 £ de frais de résiliation. Le volume pourra donc venir vite, tout comme la contribution de Netgem, directement indexée sur le nombre d’abonnés recrutés."

Perspectives
Le groupe anticipe une amélioration du chiffre d'affaires sur l'ensemble de l'exercice 2026, portée par la montée en charge de PLEIO. La croissance du parc d'abonnés sous gestion et des revenus récurrents d'abonnement constitue l'axe prioritaire du groupe.
Pour Mathias Hautefort, Directeur Général du groupe Netgem : « Le point marquant de ces derniers mois est le lancement de Vodafone TV, avec le passage à l'échelle de notre modèle : un opérateur européen de premier plan dont le service de télévision est conçu, fourni et exploité par Netgem. Nos priorités commerciales et produit sont désormais organisées autour de PLEIO et de la content factory qui l'alimente. »
