 Freebox V8: Netflix accidentally reveals some specifications

The next Freebox V8 (or "Pop", which has had its launch delayed due to containment, has just accidentally appeared on the Netflix website, which reveals some features.

If these disclosures confirm the latest rumors - support for 4K, Netflix - there are some surprises, such as support HDR .

It will be Freebox Pop

The streaming giant Netflix apparently seemed a little too eager to reference the Freebox to come into his service. In doing so, the official name of the V8 has been confirmed, so it will be "Freebox Pop." It will be positioned between the Freebox Delta and Freebox One .

As you would expect, the new box will be compatible with 4K Ultra HD, like its sisters the Freebox Delta and Mini 4K. Thanks to Netflix, we know above all that 5.1 surround sound as well as Dolby Atmos will also be on the program, something to delight lovers of cinema and bingewatching! As a reminder, this technology had already been announced for the Freebox Delta, which however does not have it…

The V8 box should also be compatible with ADSL and fiber optic, with speeds capping at 1 Gb / s for downloads and 600 Mb / s for sending. On the call side, nothing new: they would be unlimited tolandlines as well as 110 international destinations, a feature bequeathed by the Freebox Mini 4K .

An imminent launch?

Freebox Pop should stand out for its multimedia capabilities, notably by making more than 200 channels available to users. Android TV would be available, allowing for a much more interactive interface. Recall that the official name of the box has still not been confirmed. The same goes for the release, which has been postponed to an unknown date.

The Netflix blunder, however, gives hope for an announcement in the coming weeks. It remains to be seen whether Xavier Niel's company wants to target marketing in the summer, or for the end of holidays
