Quick Verdict

The main reason to consider Unifi Home 100Mbps with Netflix Basic is not the broadband speed — it is whether you already intend to pay for Netflix.

The current bundle is listed at RM118.90/month, combining Unifi Home 100Mbps with Netflix Basic.

Netflix Basic gives you 720p video quality and one supported device at a time.

That makes this bundle straightforward for a household where one person normally watches Netflix at a time. The value becomes less obvious if two people regularly watch different Netflix content simultaneously, or if you specifically want Full HD or 4K.

The important part is therefore to look beyond the word “Netflix included” and check exactly which Netflix tier you are receiving.

Cost & Entertainment ROI

The simplest way to judge this bundle is to compare it with buying both services separately.

Buy Separately

Unifi Home 100Mbps: RM89/month

Netflix Basic: RM29.90/month

Total: RM118.90/month

Unifi Netflix Bundle

Bundle: RM118.90/month

So the calculation is:

RM89 + RM29.90 = RM118.90

Bundle = RM118.90

Actual Monthly Saving: RM0

This is the important finding.

Based on the currently listed prices, the 100Mbps + Netflix Basic combination does not create an additional monthly saving simply because it is labelled as a bundle.

You are effectively paying the same amount as buying the broadband and Netflix Basic separately.

That does not necessarily make the bundle bad. The convenience of having the services managed together can still be useful. But consumers should not assume that “bundle” automatically means they are saving money.

Over 24 months:

RM0 × 24 = RM0 additional subscription saving

The comparison is based on the currently advertised monthly prices and excludes applicable taxes, add-ons and other charges.

Netflix Basic: What Are You Actually Getting?

Netflix Basic is not the highest Netflix tier.

According to Netflix Malaysia, Basic currently provides:

1. 720p resolution
2. 1 device watching at a time
3. Compatible with phones, tablets, laptops and TVs
4. Monthly price of RM29.90 when purchased separately

The one-device limit is particularly important.

If one person is watching Netflix on the TV while another household member tries to watch Netflix on a laptop, the Basic plan does not provide two simultaneous streams.

So the question is not simply whether you use Netflix. It is how many people use Netflix at the same time.

Subscription Tier Trap

This is where the bundle can become more expensive than it first appears.

Unifi allows customers who receive Netflix Basic to upgrade their Netflix subscription. Its FAQ currently lists the following additional monthly charges:

Netflix's current standalone prices are:

If You Want Full HD

Basic → Standard costs an additional RM20/month.

So the effective Netflix component becomes:

RM29.90 + RM20 = RM49.90/month

That matches Netflix's current standalone Standard price.

If You Want 4K

Basic → Premium costs an additional RM33/month.

Therefore:

RM29.90 + RM33 = RM62.90/month

Again, this matches Netflix's current standalone Premium price.

So there is no hidden “cheap Premium upgrade” here. If your household wants Premium, the upgrade cost effectively brings the Netflix component to the current standalone Premium price.

The 4K TV Trap

A 4K television does not automatically mean you are getting 4K Netflix.

The bundled plan is Netflix Basic, which is limited to 720p.

If your main reason for choosing the bundle is watching Netflix on a 4K TV, Basic may not match what you expect.

To move from Basic to Premium:

Additional cost = RM33/month

Over a 24-month period:

RM33 × 24 = RM792

So a customer who keeps Premium for the entire 24-month broadband contract would pay an additional RM792 for the Netflix upgrade.

That is worth including in the budget before signing a long-term broadband contract.

What Happens If You Need Two Screens?

The same issue applies to households with multiple Netflix viewers.

Basic allows one device at a time, while Standard allows two devices at a time.

If two people regularly watch Netflix simultaneously, the Basic bundle may force an upgrade.

The additional cost is:

RM20/month

Across 24 months:

RM20 × 24 = RM480

So the advertised RM118.90 bundle can effectively become RM138.90/month if you upgrade Basic to Standard.

For Premium:

RM118.90 + RM33 = RM151.90/month

This is the number worth comparing if your household actually needs 4K/HDR and four simultaneous devices.

Is the Bundle Actually Better Than Buying Netflix Separately?

Financially, at the current listed prices, the answer is not automatically.

For Basic:

Standalone:

RM89 + RM29.90 = RM118.90

Bundle:

RM118.90

Difference:

RM0/month

The bundle's advantage is therefore primarily convenience, not a direct Netflix discount.

And because Netflix allows customers to cancel their membership separately, consumers should not confuse Netflix's flexible subscription with the broadband contract. Netflix says its membership can be cancelled online without a cancellation fee, while Unifi Home carries its own minimum contract period.

Who Should Get the Netflix Basic Bundle?

Consider it if you:

1. Already intend to subscribe to Netflix Basic.
2. Usually have only one Netflix viewer at a time.
3. Are comfortable with 720p.
4. Do not specifically need 4K Netflix.
5. Prefer having the broadband and Netflix subscription combined.

Consider upgrading Netflix if you:

1. Have a 4K TV and want 4K/HDR.
2. Regularly have two people watching Netflix simultaneously.
3. Want better picture quality than 720p.
4. Need more simultaneous devices.

Consider buying Netflix separately if:

1. You want maximum flexibility over your Netflix subscription.
2. You do not see any financial advantage in the current bundle price.
3. You expect to change Netflix tiers frequently.

Contract & Commitment

The broadband package carries a 24-month contract. Unifi's FAQ states that termination after the minimum contract period does not incur a penalty, while early termination is subject to the applicable terms.

This is important when evaluating the Netflix portion of the deal.

Netflix itself is flexible, but the broadband commitment is not equivalent to a month-to-month Netflix subscription.

If you are signing the broadband contract mainly because Netflix is included, make sure the broadband service itself is something you would keep for the full contract period.

NetBijak’s Recommendation

The 100Mbps + Netflix Basic bundle is not automatically cheaper than buying the two services separately.

At the current listed prices:

RM89 Unifi + RM29.90 Netflix = RM118.90/month

The bundle is also RM118.90/month, giving a direct subscription saving of RM0.

Its real value depends on whether Netflix Basic is actually the tier you want.

If one person watches Netflix at a time and 720p is acceptable, the included Basic subscription is convenient. But if you have a 4K TV, remember that the bundle does not give you 4K Netflix. Upgrading Basic to Premium costs an additional RM33/month, or RM792 over 24 months.

For two simultaneous viewers, Basic → Standard adds RM20/month, bringing the combined broadband-plus-Netflix cost to RM138.90/month.

So before signing up, check the Netflix tier, number of simultaneous viewers and whether you actually need 4K. The word “Netflix” in the bundle is not enough — the subscription level determines the real value.
