Television is no longer a bulky service like we had known in the past. It has become rather portable, if you may… Primetime is not a moment to wait for in the evenings anymore, where people had set aside a time to sit before their television screens and pay attention because they can’t afford to miss.
YoTV and Airtel TV are here to give us the best mobile TV services we can consume. All you need now is your phone and any of the TV apps. After registration, you can enjoy free subscription for about a month, before you start on your official subscription plan.
With these TVs, you can even record or save the shows for later. The Big question, however, would be, YoTV vs Airtel TV, who is best? Let’s get into it;
