Netflix - Android Market

Netflix - Android Market

Netflix finally? For some yes but for most not just yet. I was not able to find this app on the market using my phone but here it is in the above link from the Android Market via the Internet. Personally it won't let me install it from the net saying my Samsung Intercept is not compatible.

For this review I used the Netflix app on my iPhone and from what I've read it is the same as far as features except the iPhone has subtitles available and the Android does not as of this moment.

Everyone will have a different experience with Netflix on their handheld device depending on several factors, connection speed, processing power and of course the resolution of your device. On the iPhone 3G that I use for testing the picture is beautiful and aside from being 4 inches it looks as good as the HD viewing on my monitor.

Since I'm streaming wireless at home and have the highest speed available there is no stuttering whatsoever, in a word it is fantastic. If you have Netflix and your device is able to handle it then get the free app and give it a whirl, you may not have a very good experience on 3G but any wi-fi signal will do the trick.

I don't know how well it will do say for watching a movie streamed while your a passenger in a car or on a train, I can only imagine it would not be good. Regardless since the app is free and if you have a Netflix account then you should definitely try it out and see where and when it will work out for you.

If you don't have an account with them then you can try the service for free for one month at home and on any of your Netflix capable devices such as Android, Xbox etc. So give it a shot and let me know what you think.
