OnePlus is now rolling out Netflix support for OnePlus TV 55 Q1 and OnePlus TV 55 Q1 Pro TVs in India. Both the smart TVs launched in September without Netflix support. OnePlus has announced the support will be rolled out through a software update to existing OnePlus TVs, while those who buy a ‘new’ OnePlus TV now will get it right out-of-the-box.
Not just that, OnePlus is also launching a new remote for the OnePlus TV that comes with a dedicated Netflix button, in addition to the existing Amazon Prime Video, YouTube and Google Assistant buttons. Note that even though the OnePlus TV is getting a dedicated Netflix button on the remote, it’s not technically a Netflix Recommended TV.
Netflix has announced that those who buy a ‘new’ OnePlus TV now will get the new remote bundled right out-of-the-box. Existing OnePlus TV owners can meanwhile replace their old remotes for the new one at no extra charge. OnePlus has a dedicated product page for the new OnePlus TV remote and will be offering it invite-only.
If this hasn't sorted your weekend, we don't know what will.
