Panasonic TVs welcome Disney+

Disney to your home

by Andy Bassett

Disney’s flagship direct-to-consumer streaming service, Disney+, is now available on compatible Panasonic TVs launched from 2017 onwards.

With Panasonic heralding its TV range - and especially its OLED models with their ‘Hollywood to your Home’ branding - as the choice for serious movie fans, the news that Disney+ is finally coming to its 4K TVs will come as good news.  For film fans this now means access to the Star Wars and Marvel cinematic universes as well as Pixar animated movies.

Compatible TV models include those which feature the My Home Screen smart operating system released from 2017 onwards.

Owners will see the Disney+ app icon appear in the Application view and can now enjoy easy access to the huge, ever expanding range of content which is already available to viewers of LG, Samsung, Sony and Philips TVs through their respective WebOS, Tizen and Android smart operating systems.
