That Movistar is going to change all the old decos for the new 4K model for free is already an open secret. As you know, the blue operator has the UHD Decoder as a reference model, either in its wired or wireless version via WiFi. Until a few days ago, it was offered for 40 euros to customers and all television subscriptions with Fusion Starts or a higher rate have it by default. As we have already informed you, Movistar has taken a firm step by deciding that it is time to carry out an ambitious plan. All your customers will be able to enjoy the functionalities of the new 4K model at no cost for a maximum period of 24 months.
The teleco has already begun to send communications to several of its clients in which it warns of the imminent change. Among the novelties that you will be able to enjoy with the Movistar UHD Decoder we have the jump to 4K resolution and access to a new menu with content from third parties such as Netflix or Disney+, as long as we have them included in our convergent rate.
What can I do with the 4K deco
Movistar’s UHD deco allows us to reproduce the content broadcast on the channels that we have contracted in our rate. Movies, series, exclusive programs, even soccer and other sports depend on the Fusion package that we pay month by month. This is all you will be able to do when the blue operator upgrades your deco:
Movistar Living Apps
Thanks to the UHD decoders (wired with WiFi) you will be able to enjoy new digital experiences entertainment, buy online travel and sports. You have them available through Movistar TV. You can access either from the apps section, through the voice command or from the Movistar Home device. In addition to the applications that come pre-installed such as Netflix or Disney +, we will also be able to install the ones that we use the most in our day to day.
record content
The deco becomes an interesting tool, not only for all those who do not have a Smart TV at home, but also because it offers very useful functions such as being able to record content to view it later. To be more exact, we can program up to 50 series and record complete seasons. More than 300 hours to store series, movies and programs that will be available for more than six months.
Movistar Plus+ Voice Command
we introduce you to Aura, Movistar’s virtual assistant. With the Voice Command you will be able to ask Aura recommendations of movies, find the next football game you want to watch or find movies featuring your favorite actors and actresses through voice commands.
View content in 4K
Be careful with this because the fact that the decoders are compatible with 4K quality does not mean that all the content that we are going to be able to see is available in this quality. You’re going to have to hire one. Fusion mode that has the cinema, series or football content that is available in UHD, in addition to a 4K compatible television. For example, some of the live channels that you will have available in 4K are Movistar LaLiga UHD or Formula 1 UHD. Also movies, series and documentaries.
install it yourself
As the official Movistar statement says, “When you receive it, you will only have to replace it with the previous decoder and start enjoying your new experience. If you have doubts, in the following video we explain step by step how to do it. You will see that it is very simple.”
You have to bear in mind that once the deco arrives, it is very important that you confirm the change by accessing the link that will arrive by email or SMS. The ultimate goal is for all the operator’s customers to have 4K UHD deco in a maximum period of 24 months.
