DStv Glass: MultiChoice to launch its own smart TV

MultiChoice Group on Thursday announced plans to launch its own start television set. Called DStv Glass, the 4K flat-screen TV will be launched in 2023.

CEO Calvo Mawela took the wraps off the product at a MultiChoice showcase event in Johannesburg. He said the TV will allow viewers to navigate a range of products from different sources.

The voice-activated TV is based entirely on streaming – no satellite dish is needed, only a broadband connection.

The product is based on a TV launched by Sky in the UK, called Sky Glass.

The DStv Glass TV will support HDR and features Dolby Atmos cinema sound. It will ship in different sizes, which MultiChoice didn’t immediately disclose, as well as various colour options, also not disclosed.
