(Hong Kong, 18 December 2023) Hong Kong Broadband Network (“HKBN”) and OPPO have joined forces to unveil Hong Kong’s first Marvel Wi-Fi 6 router series. This exciting router series fuses striking designs with functional technology. Inspired by the beloved characters of Iron Man and Spider-Man, the series perfectly integrates home networking with the world of superheroes. Additionally, a special edition variant featuring the iconic villain Thanos will be launched, with only 100 units available exclusively in Hong Kong (offered for selected customers to order; details will be announced soon). Marvel fans and collectors alike should not miss out!
Rex Hui, HKBN Co-Owner & Head of Product Development & Management, Residential Solutions said, “Over the past two years, we have led the charge in driving Wi-Fi 6 via a range of router solutions from various brands. Through this collaboration with OPPO, we’ve transformed the mundane Wi-Fi router from an unsightly piece of equipment into a design showpiece worthy of being put on display.”
Jensen Jie, President of Wireless Product Center at OPPO shared, “We are pleased to collaborate with HKBN - the OPPO Wi-Fi 6 router boasts exceptional design and performance, making it a perfect match for the distinctive characteristics of the three Marvel characters featured in this special series. We are skilled at creating trendy co-branded products for users. Our designers have meticulously incorporated unique details into each design, and we believe they will be loved by Marvel fans.”
Superhero design integrated for the home network
The Marvel Wi-Fi 6 router series boasts eye-catching designs that are sure to captivate users. The Spider-Man version captures the essence of the iconic hero as he dynamically leaps from a backdrop of skyscrapers and winding road patterns on the antenna. Equally striking, the Iron Man version showcases the hero in mid-flight, symbolising his emergence from the router with a sense of speed and impact. Lastly, the Thanos’ version features powerful snap and celestial stone effects, a vivid expression of his immense powers. Perfect for home décor, these routers appeal to both Marvel fans and non-enthusiasts.
Beyond their aesthetic appeal, the Marvel Wi-Fi 6 routers are equipped with advanced features such as Wi-Fi 6 and Mesh technology. With exceptional coverage capabilities, the routers effortlessly blanket the entire home with strong and reliable connectivity, and are equipped with a 2.5G WAN interface, perfectly for unleashing the power of 2000M broadband for everything from streaming and gaming to drama-binging – all at the same time.
