“We are accelerating our innovation muscle to provide customers
With an unparalleled viewing experience across all screens,
Through our Ultra and Ulti Boxes and Astro GO.
Customers using these products can immediately enjoy
The full functionalities of the new Astro viewing experience across linear TV,
On Demand, Cloud Recording and Continuous Viewing.
For new customers the Ultra and Ulti Plug & Play Boxes
We announced recently are gamechangers -
They can be self-installed by a customer
And run solely on a broadband connection,
Meaning it’s no longer compulsory to have a satellite dish.
We were the first in the region to launch 4K High Dynamic Range
And Dolby Atmos capability to bring sports fans a premium viewing experience
In crystal clear 4K UHD.
Today, we hit another milestone by aggregating the Netflix app
Directly onto Ultra Box so that customers can stream Netflix content seamlessly
For an unbeatable big screen experience at home.
More apps including Disney+ Hotstar will quickly follow,
Making us the Number 1 aggregator of the best streaming services in Malaysia.”
Azlin Arshad, Commercial Director of Astro, shared,

And designed to meet our customers’ diverse entertainment preferences,
All at amazing value.

And Jungle Cruise or HBO’s And Just Like That and Succession,
In addition to a wide variety of Astro’s own Korean, Asian
And local favourites such as Maharaja Lawak Mega,

Customers have the choice to remain on their current packs,
But we know that many will want to upgrade to the exciting new packs
