Update: BOLT TV for Hisense

#ICYMI, BOLT is coming to Hisense TVs next month! We are currently conducting internal testing for Hisense TVs to also include older versions of Hisense TVs in the roll-out for greater adoption. We will also be including a radio function in the Hisense TV BOLT+ app for greater consumer choice. Stay tuned for more launch details.

New series!

It has been two months since the EPL, along with other major sports tournaments around the world, have ground to a halt. While the world slowly regains its footing, BOLT’s new series “Come Back Stronger” interviews people from the sports industry and discusses how the pandemic has affected their livelihoods. From referees, to athletes to business owners, subscribe to Come Back Stronger every week on BOLT TV for ideas on how they improvise, adapt and overcome.
