The Pluto TV App is already available on all Philips 2023 model TVs featuring the TP Vision’s own improved Smart TV platform and will also be shortly available on earlier 2021/2022 models via an over-the-air automatic update.

Part of that process is to ensure that our customers have the easiest access to the very best content – and for both subscribed and free services. Partnering with Pluto TV represents a clear advance to our offering and brings a huge increase in content to a very large potential audience. Pluto TV will play a central role in ensuring that our customers enjoy a truly enhanced viewing experience’.
