4K Format

4K Format – As for those you who are confused about what 4K is and why is it so difficult to find shows that can be viewed in 4K? The response to the question is that 4K essentially means a performance higher than the HD resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels. You will experience an incredibly brighter and crisp image and image consistency than your older TV if you already have a 4K TV. 4K is more than just sharp pictures, and it’s the unusual information that blows away your mind.

It should be considered that to watch content in 4K, the minimal Internet speed is required. So, you must subscribe to a provider that provides more than 25 Mbps of internet speed and provides a secure link. Since some streaming services offer 4K content, the cable industry feels the need to keep pace. Consequently, here are the top three providers of cable TV that support 4K right now!

Spectrum TV customers can stream 4K content from their Spectrum TV 4K app. Further in this article, we will enlist all the cable services that offer 4K content:

The 4K TV DIRECTV

DIRECTV is indeed one of the industry’s most successful providers. Along with many other features, its affordable packages and high-quality services enable you to stream 4K video. Besides, with over 50,000 shows and movies, you get access to a vast library to enjoy on-demand content.

Equipment Needed: To make use of the DIRECTV subscription, you would need a 4K TV and the new Genie DVR as it may not work on an old version.

DISH TV 4K

With some exceptional deals and offers for its customers, Dish TV is another competitive 4K service provider. It also provides free installation, in addition to an impressive channel range. Another appealing aspect of Dish is that, after signing the deal, it guarantees you a stable price without any hikes.

Required Equipment: You would need a Dish 3 Hopper DVR OR A 4K receiver from Dish, in addition to a 4K TV and subscription. For Dish TV, the equipment needed is quite the same as for DIRECTV.

Xfinity TV 4K

In terms of 4K coverage, Xfinity has also built a strong position in the industry. You will watch as many as 300,000 or more films or TV shows. As part of your kit, you can also opt for add-on channels.

Requires Equipment: You will need Xfinity’s Stream software compatible with Samsung TV sets to access the 4K coverage. To make use of the Stream app, you’ll also need Xfinity Internet.
