If you want something as good for half price then here is the AmazonTV FireStick - amzn.to/3I97GLM otherwise let me know what you think about Hubbl below, chat there.
@RAM_845oh, don’t get your hopes up. It aggregates but uses the apps to play the content. You don’t think Netflix will allow third party access to their content without authentication.

Foxtel always makes the worst products and love to price gouge. I still clearly remember when foxtel came out their selling point was no ads... and there never will be 😂
i can't get tv from my room let alone decent reception with the house alone. but i'm considering this for the free view tv. anything else included is just a bonus.
lol don’t be fooled you literally just told me you can’t get decent reception in your house? Buy a tv aerial high quality one maybe will cost you $60 at max then use that 😊
I agree with you can't see the point. I use an Apple TV for my streaming whcih is excellent but avoid the terrestrial services as I hate adds. Instead I also use a Fetch box with hard drive just to record terrestrial shows and play them back after skipping the ads. I assume if you watch live or catch up that you will always get the ads on Hubbl. I love the Apple TV experience but wish you could get all the services to allow you to mark shows as "up next" and the next episode drops into your queue (particularly Netfix). I would be interested if Hubbl allows this type of functionality. The other nice thing about Apple TV is there are now native VPN apps so you can change regions and watch apps from around the world. As a Brit I like to watch a lot of shows from the UK on terrestrial channels like BBC and Channel 4.
I'm gonna assume that the hubble tv is one of those OEM "Kogan tv" type things that sell for dirty cheap for under $1K with some custom firmware. Anything over $1K , just get a samsung, panasonic or LG. You can literally buy a 75in for under $900 on Kogan, and thats a lot of very giant TV. Hell I brought my 50in Panasonic for under $1K 15 years ago.
You need to compare the Hubbl 4K streaming box against other set top boxes with streaming capabilities. Panasonic PVR, Laser, Foxtel Now box, Telstra TV by Roku, Fetch TV Mini & Mighty. The Hubbl looks like a winner to me as it's tiny. If you don't need the terrestrial antenna connection well obviously Google Chromecast with Google TV standard or 4K, Amazon Firestick range, Apple TV and NVIDIA Shield range would be the competitors and Im sure Google is winning with sales of those devices
Pat, can't we sign up and just give a whole lot of bullshit bogus information some they run themselves raggard, can't we run the tv through a VPN so they think we are in the States? the tele hasn't got a forward facing camera for zoom,skype, WhatsApp nothing!..pft.. they must think we where born yesterday. Thanks for the 'Heads Up' mate. 👀👍.
BigW 65" $699 with WebOS/Google or Andriod OS. I paid $900 for a 75" from them myself. If HUBBL is an APP I might look at it for SAVING of the growing streaming bill but 5 services for $15 saving isnt as much as sharing the cost across family and friends! Also, naming an app Hubbl on google apps isnt possible as its a social media app!
Thank you for your "rant" o sorry comments on this. I will staying with my nvidia shield. At least I can put what I want on it like BBC, ITV and other apps. I have Kayo and Flash from them only. No not for my. Cheers Kevin In Down Town Wilcannia
I finally cancelled my Foxtel 2 months ago should have done it long ago overpriced rip off, I have Kayo but as soon as the AFL season ends I will cancel that to.
yeah, but not everyone is a fuckin nerd that wants to set up a plex server or have some weird amazon firestick. They are boomers with more money than sense and they dont know how to use technology and they just want to sit down and watch the cricket

Hubble 99 fire stick is 79 not half the price.
The fact the Hubbl Glass is being exclusively sold at Harvey Norman is a complete utter **joke**
Well it fits both are overpriced and greedy.
Foxtel always makes the worst products and love to price gouge.
I still clearly remember when foxtel came out their selling point was no ads... and there never will be 😂
*2 years ago I got a 75'' 4K Samsung TV at Harvey Norman for $1,200*
Most smart tvs pretty much ofer the same basic search service these days.

thanks for mentioning the vpn thing! ill see if my vpn is on their so i can finally hook up the rellies to my netflix and various iso's.
If you take a look at these TVs some places are stating that they are actually not even 8 bit colour they are a huge rip off
Would you be able to compare Hubbl with Fetch?
Waiting on release
You reason why foxtel are doing this is spot on, the clown recruitment agency told me what they’re doing while trying to hire people

*I can't believe they are going to charge almost $10 a month for a Lifestyle channel app*
An nvidia shield does all that already

Yes the terrestrial connection is unique
To be honest I would be tempted if you could watch traditional cable
then just buy a foxtel iq lmao
Sounds like a rip of to me Pat mate. The price of the glass TV is a bit over the top for what you get and no optical out come on lol..
This will fail the smart TVs have all the same features, it's just a multi platform media box , why would you???????
When the video image is mostly a text document (news article), but it can't be read because the video is only 360p
the links are in the description
SORRY, released too soon, should be good now.
Is there a monthly fee to foxtel?
Yes
It's Roadrunner... 🤣.
HATE the hubble ad
Oh man yes.

It’s just like any other smart tv… with a new paint job
Foxtel Super genius 🤣🙈

Yeah ... NAH!

I love roadrunner! Lol
Saying Hubbl is doomed to fail without having real device to test...thumb down
yeah, but not everyone is a fuckin nerd that wants to set up a plex server or have some weird amazon firestick. They are boomers with more money than sense and they dont know how to use technology and they just want to sit down and watch the cricket
Haha they already own a Foxtel box I’m sure
