Dish Hopper Plus<\/h4>\n\n\n But perhaps the best feature of the Hopper 3 HD DVR is that it can double up as a smart TV box with 4K viewing capabilities if you get the DISH Hopper Plus add-on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This add-on comes with several built-in streaming apps like Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon Prime Video, enabling you to access more ultra-HD content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nA multimedia TV box with a remote controller<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nHowever, you must pay for the services to access the content. And the streaming platform recommends an internet connection speed of 25 Mbps minimum to stream 4K content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can access Netflix via the app or channel 370 on the DISH programming guide. With this Netflix integration into the Hopper 3 search results, the device will populate all the 4K content accessible via the Premium streaming membership to the DISH’s episode list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also, DISH Hopper Plus gives you access to over 6,000 apps from the Google Play Store. So you get live TV, streaming apps, DVR recordings, and on-demand programs from a single device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since it is a smart TV box, you can use the add-on device to convert your dumb TV to a smart one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plus, it includes Google Assistant integration to bring on board extra functions like light dimming, calendar viewing, and voice control to start, pause, or stop movies.<\/p>\n\n\n
4K Joey<\/h3>\n\n\n The Joey 4K is one of the devices in a family of set-top boxes used for multi-room access to content and DVR recordings. Other include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nOriginal Joey<\/li>\n\n\n\n Super Joey<\/li>\n\n\n\n Wireless Joey<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nThe 4K Joey works like these other receivers but supports ultra HD content, while others can only handle HD channels. So you should buy it if you have a 4K TV. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the device also supports HD programming, so you can use it with HD-resolution TVs and DVRs before upgrading to an ultra HD TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nA TV set-top box<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n4K Joey works with the Hopper 3 to expand your viewing experience using Bluetooth. You can pair it with the Hopper 3 to watch Netflix content from several rooms without unsightly wires and a complex installation process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The device costs $5 monthly, and one Hopper 3 can support up to seven TVs through the 4K Joey.<\/p>\n\n\n
DISH Pricing<\/h2>\n\n\n One of the best advantages of subscribing to DISH is you get 4K content with any of the following packages.<\/p>\n\n\n
America’s Top 120<\/h3>\n\n\n America’s top 120 lists 190 channels of the all-time favorite and local content for $79.99 monthly. However, these channels broadcast in HD resolution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So you’ll enjoy 4K content from the over 28,000 titles available on-demand for this plan. Also, the package has a few sports channels, one being ESPN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nA soccer match going on a sports channel<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n4K Channels On DISH: America’s Top 200<\/h3>\n\n\n If you want everything sports and entertainment, consider subscribing to this channel.

But DISH lists them clearly on its website to avoid cases of hidden costs.<\/p>\n\n\n
4K Channels On DISH: Latino Packages<\/h3>\n\n\n The DISH Network offers four other Latino subscription plans without ultra HD content. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nDishLATINO Clasico – $64.99 monthly<\/li>\n\n\n\n DishLATINO Plus – $66.99 monthly<\/li>\n\n\n\n DishLATINO Dos – $91.99 monthly<\/li>\n\n\n\n DishLATINO Max – $106.99 monthly<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nThese four come with the same benefits as the ones provided above (a 3-year price guarantee, free installation, and signal reliability guarantee). And you can add other channels (add-ons) for a small extra cost.<\/p>\n\n\n
Other Ways to Access 4K Content on Dish<\/h2>\n\n\n You can use an internet-connected Hopper or Wally to subscribe to more networks available on the on-demand platform. This setup will give you access to thousands of ad-free movies and shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since you won’t be home all the time, you can use DISH anywhere to access on-demand programming to stream all the content provided in your subscription plan on the go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The platform acts as an extension of your set-top box, giving you access to the same entertainment options you’d get at home on your laptop or mobile device from anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nA person using a live-streaming app on the go<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nThis streaming covers 4K content, which you can enjoy if you have a high-end phone, tablet, or laptop with a high picture resolution display.<\/p>\n\n\n
Wrap Up<\/h2>\n\n\n As you can see, DISH does not have that many 4K channels but tries to make up for it by providing on-demand content plus access to 4K streaming platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And it’s not that they cannot offer ultra-HD streaming. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
