You can now use your television set to sufr the internet with the use of Smart Bro Surf TV. Smart Bro Surf TV is a new online TV service provided by Smart Communications.

You don't need a computer with this service. All you need to have in order to be connected to the internet is a television set and the Smart Bro Surf TV which includes a Smart Bro USB stick-type modem, a remote control, a keyboard, and a mouse. And of course you need to have 3G coverage in order to use the service.


The Smart Bro Surf TV kit costs Php4,500 and comes with a prepaid SIM preloaded with Php100 worth of load. Internet access costs Php10 for every 30 minutes.

Surfing is obviously easy with the TV set and the PC peripherals but managing files is something that was not yet known as of the moment. Maybe this is for browsing the web only and not for downloading files. But who knows the device might be compatible with external hard drives.

    masaya itong surftv na ito. nakita ko demo nito sa smart tower. nakalimutan ko lang tanungin kung pwede ipademo sa bahay bago ako bumili.

    kakatuwa talaga to. me review sa yugatech nito. it's more geared towards content viewing rather than making the info usable. meaning browsing lang po talaga. though it was not tested if an external drive can be attached since there is an extra USB port to attach it.
