PLDT Home and Smart Launches iFLIX in PH

The partnership between iFlix and MVP-owned companies PLDT Home and Smart Communications has finally come into fruition as the Southeast Asia’s leading internet TV service finally hits Philippines.

PLDT Home and Smart subscribers can enjoy unlimited streaming for Php99USD 2INR 143EUR 2CNY 12 a month and choose from a wide range of movies and TV series from iFlix’s top studio partners which include Disney, Fox, and Warner Bros. just to name some.

iFlix is available to all existing PLDT Home DSL and PLDT Home Ultera subscribers, not to mention Smart postpaid and prepaid users, as an add-on option. The iFlix subscription fee (Php99USD 2INR 143EUR 2CNY 12) will be added on top of the user’s monthly amortization or deducted from their prepaid load (for Smart prepaid subs).

On the other hand, PLDT Home subscribers who’ve upgraded to TVolution or Telpad plans, as well as existing Fibr Plan subscribers can get iFlix at no extra charge.

To get started with iFlix, simply register an account via www.iflix.com and receive a 14-day trial of the service. The service is also available on Android and iOS devices through the iFlix app which can be downloaded on the links provided below.

I highly doubt if typical Philippine broadband speeds can handle HD streams, so there.

I used iFlix. Yeah luma ang shows, but it has a lot of interesting old shows that I would watch. If I can get all season of Friends, why would I bother downloading each of them?

I am watching most of the A&E (American Restorations, Pawn Stars, the Pickers) shows adding also Comedy Central shows (stand-up comedy with John Oliver, Family Guy) to name a few.

As for the streaming quality, it’s adaptive. Kapag ok ang internet mo, its HQ SD. Pag hindi it throttles the quality. I have 3mbps, unless may nag 2 YT sa bahay (we have 6 computers and many Smart devices), tuloy tuloy naman.

I’m also guessing PLDT also prioritized iFlix bandwidth, so it appears faster than YT.
