Advanced TV Service of the Year 2019, revealed! (Netgem.tv)

"...Netgem took home the award for Advanced TV Service of the Year (2019) for Netgem.tv." @ VideoTech Innovation Awards

Netgem.tv signs also deals with 

=> 12 fibre broadband providers in UK, Ireland (6 December 2019)!

Netgem confirmed that the netgem.tv service has signed partnership agreements with 12 ultrafast fibre broadband providers in the UK in the six months since launch.

As a result, the netgem.tv service can now reach over 250,000 UK homes, complementing their access to gigabit-enabled fibre broadband. The milestone comes after netgem.tv added the Premier Sports channels to its platforms. The netgem.tv service now offers access to more than 100 live TV channels such as BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5, as well as a complete Freeview Play catch-up with more than 20,000 hours of content. It also offers access to streaming services such as Amazon Prime Video, YouTube, Rakuten TV and Hayu.

The 12 ultrafast fibre broadband providers who have signed distribution deals with netgem.tv to bring the TV streaming service to their customers in the UK and Ireland are: 

1. WightFibre, 
2. Origin Broadband, 
3. Pure Broadband, 
4. Jersey Telecom, 
5. Air Broadband, 
6. Voneus, 
7. Pure Fibre, 
8. Cambridge Fibre, 
9. VX Fibre, 
10. Lilaconnect, 
11. Gigaclear 
12. Pure Telecom. 

 

In less than six months, netgem.tv has signed partnership agreements with 12 Ultrafast Fibre providers in the UK offering its TV and Streaming service to a reach of over a quarter of a million of the UK homes, complementing their access to gigabit-enabled fibre broadband.

This distribution acceleration comes some two weeks after (November 2019) the addition of Premier Sports channels to the netgem.tv inclusive premium content line up – which the platform suggests confirms the appetite from viewers and operators alike for a ‘skinny bundle’ entertainment package.

netgem.tv’s library incorporates over 100 live TV channels including the nation’s favourites such as BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 as well as a complete Freeview Play catch-up including 20,000+ hours of content. In addition, netgem.tv gives access to an array of streaming services including Amazon Prime Video, hayu, Rakuten TV, YouTube, and many more.

Netgem: New model 4K UHD (with Mobile TV App, for Christmas 2018, )

(NEW, at november 2018)

All-New NetBox 4K 

by Netgem for Christmas 2018!

(available also at Wuntu / Three UK: https://www.netgem.co.uk/wuntuthree/ 
available via Three’s Wuntu loyalty app)

All-New NetBox 4K: 

All your TV in one place with Freeview Play 

and Streaming Apps in Ultra HD, includes netgem.tv 

with Recording function & Mobile TV App by Netgem

Netgem TV is available on Netgem branded devices, and is also partnering with manufacturers on a wider range of smart TV devices available in the second half of 2018.

Sylvain Thevenot, Managing Director of Netgem UK commented: “With Freeview Play, smart TV devices powered by Netgem TV now clearly offer the ultimate lean-back entertainment experience, and by far the most sensible upgrade for all UK viewers looking for the best value entertainment proposition, combining innovation, simplicity of use, and On-Demand access to free and premium content, on TV and mobile”

Why Freeview Play boxes are still around ?! (better options on the market)

(24 octobre 2018)

"One issue with Amazon Fire, the Nvidia Shield or similar devices is the lack of access to over the air broadcasts, and in some cases such as the Shield, all the catch-up channels.

=> This is why Freeview Play boxes are still around and Netgem appears to have one of the better options on the market."

Netgem has recognised a need to declutter living spaces, especially if you live in a city, they realise most don;t have room for optical cables, HDMI cables and 4 boxes cluttering the room.  By combining an audio speaker and entertainment streaming box in one unit and addition of an Alexa supported voice control system aids minimalist design by reducing cables and excess accessories.

• Freeview HD tuner.
• On-demand and all catch-up streaming services from Freeview Play.
• A dual-tweeter, dual-subwoofer soundbar aaaaand…
• Amazon Alexa voice commands.
• Number of boxes required: One
• Netgem has delivered what modern British consumers demand, with the SoundBox HD delivering 70 Freeview channels. That includes the HD channels of all the main UK broadcasters, alongside all the Freeview Play catch-up programme feeds from the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, 5, and UKTV.

Netgem soundbar is intended to be placed on a flat surface in front of a TV rather than being clipped on or mounted. This allows the unit to be moved easily from room to room without any hassle.

In addition, modern viewing habits are catered for with unique one-click streaming of on-demand content from the likes of Amazon Prime Video, Rakuten, Hopster and Hayu, with more on-demand and catch-up services to be rolled out over the coming months. You can also access streaming music services such as Amazon Prime Music.
