just wondering can other tvbox like mibox with sooka app can stream UHD sports?
the limited UHD sports is only on sooka or astro as well?

Unfortunately, 4K streaming (via Astro Sports UHD & selected VOD) is exclusively on sooka TV Stick device.

Regular Premium Plan users without sooka TV Stick are still getting up to 1080p streaming for Live TV & VOD. Which means, you’re not getting 4K on other supported streaming devices.

One other flaw, it’s not a Netflix-certified device.

How much does it cost for sooka stick?
*
Only RM349, free 1-month Premium Plan. Astro Sports UHD is EXCLUSIVELY on the Sooka TV Stick device, nowhere else.

Or get a 12-month Premium Plan for RM499.

Both received three months of free Disney+ Hotstar access. Sooka TV Stick is NOT a Netflix-certified device yet.

i use maxis postpaid sweat.gif but i check with my friend hotlink prepaid, also can subscribe to sooka premium @ RM25/month, just that is it first month promo or not, unsure

maxis sooka premium RM25/month dont have free disney+
the RM499 or Shopee Sooka ~RM435 after voucher, free 3 months disney+, but i have unifitv ultimate plan already bundles with free disney+ (that i use apple tv to watch)
*
Sooka’s RM25 special price is for Maxis & Hotlink customers only. Pretty sure will be renewed every month with that same price.

But no Astro Sports UHD channel & 4K VOD content — it’s only viewable on Sooka TV Stick device. Regular Premium Plan without Sooka TV Stick is still limited to FHD 1080p.

I just try sooka 1080p… seem the quality is better than Astro go (TV & Mobile)
*
Astro GO supports 1080p streaming only if you have a Multiroom Smart TV subscription. For mobile and web, the maximum quality is 720p — likely due to bandwidth limitations Astro manages for its large pay-TV user base.

If you’re satisfied with Sooka, go for it. If you’re a Maxis or Hotlink customer, a special RM25 price for Premium Plan awaits.

How is the Sooka premium quality on web browser for sports? Will it be able to get 1080p stable?
I am currently using Super streamer pass at rm15/month. HD quality but acceptable and low price.
*
Remember that it's not in full HD 1080p as you're enjoying Super Streamer Pass. You need to upgrade to the Premium Plan for only RM25 per month.

It solely depends on your internet speed, though. But in my experience, it has been smooth most of the time, during non-peak usage.

If after sooka TV stick free 6 months ended, can I subscribe with maxis plan with rm25 per month? And will the maxis one with UHD if using the TV stick?
*
Yes—you can. It should work seamlessly if you’re switching to Maxis special price of the Sooka Premium Plan.

Bear in mind that while Premium Plan supports 4K streaming, both Astro Sports UHD and 4K VOD content are accessible only on the Sooka TV Stick.

Too bad, I'm still under Astro contract next year's Oct. Long long way to go. Otherwise, I would really love to make a switch to Sooka.

https://support.sooka.my/hc/en-us/articles/...7-Plans-Pricing
RM 249 for the TV stick only and free 6 months of Premium.

You were so close to switching to Sooka. What makes you stay with Astro?

No, I never thought of switching to Sooka. laugh.gif Today was the first time I looked into it seriously. laugh.gif

Y'know what? I'm also seriously considering the Sooka Premium plan as my next migration, but that only happens after my June 2027 contract with Astro ends. sad.gif

All my fixes are there, especially Astro Originals & live sports.

No such thing for sooka (unlike Netflix).

However, streaming is limited to one TV device at a time, plus up to two mobile devices (such as phone, tablet, or web browser) simultaneously.

sooka Live TV Update

As of today, the free Infamous TV channel is no longer available.

For sooka Premium customers without a sooka TV Stick — you can now stream two UHD channels, Astro Sports UHD and Love Nature 4K, directly on your own compatible TV streaming devices (including Android/Google TV’s certified TV sets and streaming boxes). The sooka TV Stick is no longer required to enjoy these live 4K channels.

Hi im new to sooka
Is there a way we can favourite the 4k channel in the apps or other way beside scrolling at the tv guide?
*
Yes you can.

Navigate to your desired channel(s) and press the love icon to mark them as favorites. These channels will be displayed on the Home tab > My List row.

Just a heads-up: you can only watch Astro Sports UHD, Love Nature 4K, and 4K UHD VOD on the sooka Smart TV app.

Planning to change to Sooka 4k stick. sick with the blurry PQ of Astro on the Go

Or, if you already have smart TV, just download sooka right away. 4K content is officially available to all sooka Premium subscribers without sooka TV Stick.

No need to buy a separate sooka TV Stick, it doesn’t support Netflix.
