Follow the Apple keynote and the news of iOS 27, Siri and more live

June 8 is coming and that means two things: that it’s starting to get hot and that we have an Apple event. As is tradition, the apple company has summoned us today in Cupertino for the WWDC 2026, the event for developers where it presents its latest software developments (and, for some time now, artificial intelligence). Of course, from Xataka we will be at the foot of the canyon covering it live both in our live page as on our YouTube channel. The event will begin at 7:00 p.m. Spanish peninsular time. We leave you the schedules by region here: Spain: 19:00 (18:00 in the Canary Islands). Mexico: 11:00 AM Colombia: 12:00 AM. Venezuela and Chile: 1:00 PM. Argentina: 2:00 PM. WWDC 2026, live What we hope to see In all of WWDC there have been, for a couple of years, two things: new versions of operating systems, of all; and some artificial intelligence. Surely today we will see iOS 27 and its brothers for iPad, Mac and Watch and other devices, although no big news is expected in terms of functions. What’s more, this year’s systems are expected to be “a bit Snow Leopard,” that is, transitional versions focused on polishing and purification of what already exists. After all, it was in iOS 26 when Apple made its big leap in terms of design, so it wouldn’t make sense to do it again this time. On the other hand, it is expected that artificial intelligence will be the main protagonist. Not because there is going to be a groundbreaking announcement, which maybe, but because Apple has had a pending task for two years: deliver the new Siri and, therefore, vitaminize Apple Intelligence. Let us remember that at the beginning of the year Apple joined forces with Google to be able to use the Gemini models and their cloud technology. Today, possibly, we will see the materialization of that agreement. In short, everything indicates that it will be a WWDC 2026 focused on fulfilling promises rather than teaching new things. As far as hardware goes, it would be strange as long as there were no major leaks or rumors. Now, it is worth keeping an eye on iOS 27 for one simple reason: what it can (or cannot) tell us about the much-rumored foldable iPhone What we expect for this year. We will clear up doubts in a while. Image | Apple edited by Xataka In Xataka | Follow WWDC 2026 live

In case there was not enough “gasoline” in 2026, the attack by a Russian drone has crossed a red line: that of Chernobyl

by

In the early 1980s, a Soviet satellite detected what appeared to be the launch of several US nuclear missiles. The duty officer, Stanislav Petrov, suspected that something was wrong and decided not to report of an imminent attack. He was right: the sensors had mistaken reflections of the sun on the clouds for real missiles. That decision avoided a possible nuclear escalation during one of the most tense moments of the Cold War. Chernobyl, again. In a war where drones are already They attack strategic airfieldsmilitary bases and industrial centers located hundreds of kilometers from the front, it seemed difficult to find a new red line. However, a russian attack against a facility related to spent nuclear fuel near Chernobyl has revived one of Europe’s most persistent ghosts. There was no radioactive leak nor were safety limits exceeded, but the simple fact that a drone hit an infrastructure linked to the site of the worst nuclear accident of modern history was enough to generate international alarm. Almost forty years after the 1986 disaster, the name Chernobyl still have a unique ability to raise concern inside and outside Ukraine. Nuclear storage facility severely damaged in Chernobyl exclusion zone after Russian drone attacks The exclusion zone. According to Ukrainian authoritiesa Russian Shahed-type drone crashed into the reception building of the Centralized Spent Nuclear Fuel Storage Facility located in the Chernobyl exclusion zone at dawn. The explosion caused significant damage into the structure and sparked a fire that was quickly extinguished. There were no victims and the stored nuclear fuel was not directly affected, since the containers were not in the area hit by the attack. Even so, the installation is part of the infrastructure intended to store for decades waste from Ukrainian nuclear power plants, which made the incident a matter of great political and strategic sensitivity. Why worry? The concern did not arise because of the material damage, but because of what could have happened in a worse scenario. The International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed that very close to the building reached there is a large amount of nuclear material stored under strict security measures. Although radiation levels remained normal, the episode once again brought to the table an issue that accompanies the conflict. from 2022: the vulnerability of nuclear facilities in a war where drones, missiles and long-range attacks are part of the daily routine. Each incident forces us to remember that infrastructure designed to operate in peacetime now exists within a combat zone. A constant pressure. The attack is not an isolated event. Over the past few years, war has repeatedly placed nuclear facilities Ukrainians at the center of international concern. The best known example is Zaporizhia power stationthe largest in Europe, occupied by Russian forces since 2022 and a common scene of cross accusations about bombings, sabotage and security threats. Added to this is the precedent February 2025when another drone damaged the gigantic confinement arch built to cover reactor number 4 at Chernobyl. Although a radiological emergency did not occur then, the incident damaged part of the structure’s protection capabilities. A symbolic dimension. Beyond its physical effects, the attack seems to have an enormous symbolic weight. Ukraine presents it as a demonstration that Russia is willing to take risks related to nuclear security to increase pressure over kyiv. Moscow, for its part, has not acknowledged any responsibility. The truth is that the episode occurred in a moment of intensification of long-range attacks by both sides, with drones hitting increasingly deeper and more sensitive targets. In this context, reaching a facility linked to Chernobyl sends a message that transcends the battlefield and also seeks to impact international public perception. The return of European nuclear fear. we have been counting. The war in Ukraine has shown that the nuclear risks of the 21st century are not limited to atomic weapons. Power plants, spent fuel depots, energy supply lines and complex security infrastructures can become targets or get caught up in the conflict. That’s why he Chernobyl incident has had such an impact despite not causing immediate radiological consequences. In a Europe already marked by war, the arms race and tensions between great powers, the attack has served to remind us that the legacy of Chernobyl is still present. He 1986 accident It belongs to the past, but the fear it inspires continues to be one of the most powerful psychological tools on the continent.

The best wireless HDMI to send an image to another room with quality and without pulling a cable

by

Sometimes we want to see the content on our mobile phone or computer on a larger screen, but it is not always easy. Smart TVs usually have everything you need to do it wirelessly, but older ones don’t. The good news is that there are wireless HDMI solutions that can be very useful, and our recommendation is the Vovipo WTR21 for everything it offers. The price could vary. We earn commission from these links He Vovipo WTR21 It is a wireless HDMI connector that is especially interesting to us because it is usually affordable and offers 4K resolution, so it is also designed to be used on more current televisions or monitors. It is also worth noting something quite practical, and that is that this model incorporates a screen that allows us to know the status of the connection and the strength of the signal. The highlights MODEL PERFECT FOR YOU THE BEST WORST PRICE FROM Vovipo WTR21 If you want to transmit the signal from a laptop to the TV without cables. It offers 4K resolution and has a screen with connection status indicators and signal strength. Does not come with cable adapters. €59.99 Lemorele R1010 If you are looking to connect two screens at the same time, such as a TV and a projector. Includes one transmitter and two receivers, as well as cable adapters. It only offers Full HD resolution. €129.99 Pousild If you want a simple, cheap model and you are close to a Full HD television. It is a basic model and moderately priced. It only offers Full HD resolution and does not have a screen or adapters included. €49.99 J-Tech Digital WEX200V3 If you need to connect several devices that are at a great distance. It offers a fairly large distance, even with obstacles and walls in the way. Its resolution is Full HD and the price is quite high €224.32 Vention TZ-ADP If you want a fairly complete model, with more range and the possibility of connecting several screens or receivers. It has an LED display, has thermal control and offers options with several receivers, up to a maximum of four. It only offers Full HD resolution. €139.99 Lemorele P400 If you want to send an image from a mobile phone, tablet or laptop with USB-C to a TV or projector. It is very versatile. You need the USB-C port on the device to have video output. €65.99 Why they stand out Of all the wireless HDMI kits, we choose the Vovipo WTR21 for everything it offers at a reasonable price. Next, we will review the main characteristics of these devices so that you are clear about what criteria to follow when choosing one model or another. The maximum range. The first thing we must be clear about is the distance at which we are going to have each of the wireless HDMI kits, since not all of them offer the same maximum range. In addition, it is important to know both the maximum distance and whether they are capable of transmitting the signal through physical obstacles such as walls, since some models require direct vision between both connectors for them to work correctly. The resolution and refresh rate supported. Generally, the wireless HDMI kits that we will find in stores will offer Full HD or 4K resolution. Depending on the use we want to give it, it is advisable to choose one or the other. For example, if your idea is to work or use some programs from the couch, a Full HD resolution will be enough. On the other hand, if you want to play multimedia content, the resolution should be 4K (as long as the television is compatible). The same goes for the refresh rate. If you are going to watch movies and series or use some applications, a rate of 60 Hz will be enough. But if you are looking for a much smoother experience because you are going to play video games, it is recommended that the rate reach 120 Hz. The latency. Latency is the time it takes for the image to be played from a device where we have the main HDMI connector installed until it reaches the screen where we have the second connector. And since we are talking about wireless devices, it is practically inevitable that we will encounter some latency. If you are going to watch a movie, latency will not have as big an impact on having a good experience. On the other hand, if you are going to play video games, especially if they are competitive, it is advisable that the wireless HDMI connector have a very low latency. The frequency band. The frequency band is the channel through which data will be sent between both HDMI connectors. Normally we will find 5 GHz and 60 GHz frequencies, and each of them has its advantages and disadvantages: 5 GHz: is the most common, offers good speed and is capable of passing through physical objects such as walls. 60 GHz: In models that work at 60 GHz, the speed is usually higher, but they require direct vision between transmitter and receiver, so they normally do not pass through walls. Connectivity. Some wireless HDMI kits come with a single HDMI port to function, while others are more complete and offer the possibility of connecting them to devices through other ports, USB-C being the most common. It is important to be clear about what devices we are going to use. If it is a laptop, it is possible that (almost) any model will work for you. On the other hand, if you are going to connect a mobile phone, you will need it to have a USB-C port or an adapter. Transmitters and receivers. These types of devices generally come with a transmitter and a receiver, although several may come. In any case, it must be taken into account that: Transmitters capture the signal from the source device and send it to the … Read more

AI has meant that so many apps have never been launched in such a short time. The problem is that almost no one is using them.

by

A new research from MIT monitored the activity of thousands of developers before and after adopting the use of AI agents such as Claude Code or Codex. In their conclusions they have detected a singular “funnel effect”: many begin to use AI to “tinker” with the codebut few projects end in final software releases. Not only that: many more apps arrive in the application stores, but the interest they generate is practically zero. Hotfix blocks everything. When you start programming with Claude Codeeven without knowing how to do it, usually experience that feeling of “being able to do anything”, but although there are projects that manage to evolve and reach a successful conclusion, many remain in an attempt: the manual processes of quality control, code review or deployment They become bottlenecks for these projects, often carried out by people without a technical profile and without knowledge of software engineering. Producing more is not selling more. The MIT study, led by one of its economics professors, Mert Demirer, reveals another striking conclusion: producing more does not mean selling more. Although the volume of mobile applications that comes to the App Store or Google Play Store has grown spectacularly due to the ease of programming with AI, real consumption has not moved. There are many more apps, but the same consumers (and buyers), who are not downloading, trying or certainly buying more than they did. App failure. The vast majority of these new software products created with these tools fail spectacularly when it comes to capturing a minimum audience. The efficiency when creating them is not directly linked to the real usefulness of these tools or with the value that the market demands of them. The code surpasses us. Linus Torvalds already said it when speaking of how he saw the world of AI: “AI will be a tool, and it will make people more productive. I think vibe coding is great for getting people to start programming. I think (the code it generates) is going to be horrible to maintain… so I don’t think programmers will go away. You’ll still want to have people who know how to maintain the output.” His comment was a good prediction of what we are seeing now: too much code being distributed everywhere makes a review of that code necessary to validate it, but doing something like that at the rate that AI is adding code to these projects is unaffordable for human programmers, who are being overwhelmed. And costs are skyrocketing. The new AI agents that program consume a large number of tokens, which has made set off the alarms in companies like Uber or Microsoft. To mitigate the problem, a hybrid usage model is now being imposed: AI agents in the cloud, such as Claude Opus 4.8, are used to plan development, but then the code is written by cheaper cloud models, which are remarkably compliant, or even local models if the user/company has sufficient local computing capacity. Remembering the industrial revolution. Demirer remembers that something similar happened during the industrial revolution. The first factories that replaced steam engines with giant electric motors did not lead to a large increase in productivity. The real boost to efficiency came decades later, when engineers redesigned those factories from scratch by installing individual motors at each workstation. In Xataka | We believed that the AI ​​talent war is about engineers and developers. Actually, it’s about plumbers and electricians.

“The blow will travel far beyond the Pacific Ocean”

by

On June 2, Celeste Saulo, the secretary general of the World Meteorological Organization, took the floor in front of media around the world and confirmed what we all feared: it is not only that, in a few weeks, the probability that The Child be strong or it has been triggered very strongly, it is that it is going much faster than normal. There is an 80% chance that we will enter a warm phase before summer. We have been saying the same refrain for decades (“it seems that El Niño is coming, we have to prepare”); Well, this time it seems that we won’t have time. What does all this mean? Although the WMO still does not use the term “SuperChild” (because it is not part of their official terminology), but the data speaks for itself: Tropical Pacific ocean readings “6 degrees above average.” It is true that these readings refer to the subsurface anomaly of the Kelvin wavebut the 0.9 of the Niño 3.4 index are not normal either (taking into account that we have been in a neutral phase for a very short time). But we had already read this, what has changed? What are we leaving behind? the main problem for prediction models: spring. June is the key moment because the models we have suddenly gain reliability and the image they give us is much more precise. That is, until now we were speculating. We had really surprising and worrying graphs, but we were aware that all this could end up in many ways when spring passed. The news is that this “landing” is being much more abrupt than we thought. If at the end of last year someone had told us that we would have a warm phase in summer, we would not have believed them. If they had also told us that it was this size we wouldn’t have even listened to it. To be clear: in just a few weeks, the picture has changed massively. What can we expect? Luckily, we have a clear precedent: The 2023-24 El Niño was the fifth strongest on record and generated an estimated $103.3 billion in damage. It was also a key factor in 2024 being the warmest year in the series. This gives us the keys to understand what impact we can expect: as Saul said“El Niño’s impact will travel far beyond the Pacific Ocean, affecting agriculture, energy, trade, water resources, supply chains and livelihoods of entire regions.” And in Spain too? THE same day that Saluo set off all the alarms, AEMET He came forward explaining that, indeed, “it is very likely that El Niño will manifest itself in these coming months” and the data confirm that it could reach “moderate or strong intensity after summer.” The good news is that “there is no clear and direct correlation between the occurrence of El Niño and its effects in” Spain. It is true that some studies point to a somewhat rainier end of autumn/beginning of winter, but the agency itself insists that “this is not always the case” and that there is no systematic correspondence. In summer, according to the agencyEl Niño would have “hardly any influence” in Spain. Tranquility, then. That is the message from AEMETalthough the truth is that this tranquility only affects the direct impacts. In a world as interconnected as ours, we will not be able to escape the indirect consequences of the largest El Niño ever recorded. So what the Agency tells us is not that we should not prepare, but that we should focus on what is truly relevant to us. The question is whether there is anyone out there listening.

“we will move more than a million passengers”

by

Ryanair will reduce its activity in Zaragoza by 45% starting in November. At least, that is the threat that is on the table if Aena does not lower its airport taxes. But far from falling in traffic, Zaragoza has one goal: to reach a record number of travelers. And that’s how they intend to achieve it. The notice. Ryanair will cut its activity in Zaragoza by 45% if airport taxes remain as they are. And, of course, if the increase that Aena wants to apply starting next year is maintained, with an eye on the period 2027-2031. The movement is framed within the cut of 1.2 million places that the company has announced for the regional airports of our country in the next winter season. Asturias, Valladolid, Jerez, Tenerife North and Vigo will say goodbye to all the company’s activities, if the plan goes ahead. The data. So far this year, Zaragoza has recorded a drop in the number of passengers of 0.5% but its operations have skyrocketed, registering an increase of 16%. The data has some interesting figures: Passengers on domestic flights have barely fallen by 0.1% Passengers on international flights have fallen by 1.4% International operations have soared by 21% while national operations have grown by 7% Operations to move merchandise are the ones that increase the most. In total, the total cargo moved has increased by 22% so far this year. All this data is collected by Aena. and the answer. To Ryanair’s threats, the response from Zaragoza is clear: they want to continue growing. Last year, Zaragoza barely exceeded 700,000 passengers, with a growth of 1.9% compared to 2024. For next year, the goal is to reach one million passengers, an ambitious figure taking into account that Ryanair would reduce its activity by half. In words collected by The Newspaper of Aragon, The general director of Transport of the Government of Aragon, David Sánchez, assures that the current volume of passengers is very far from what was expected in a city like Zaragoza and that they intend to increase them with new international routes. And he emphasizes: “in the year 2027, Zaragoza Airport will handle more than a million travelers.” In that same newspaper, reference is made to the fact that the Aragon Government Council will soon present “the tender for a tourism promotion contract for the opening of new routes, both national and international” with the aim of increasing these flights. Where to? In Herald They explain that two legs support the project to multiply the number of travelers. The main objective would be a connection with Frankfurt, a key city in international air traffic. By passenger volume, It is the fifth in Europemany companies use it as a stopover for their connections with long-haul flights and it is located in the economic capital of the European Union. Also, a few weeks ago Wizz Air confirmed that it will connect Zaragoza with Milan starting in September through Malpensa airport. It will make three weekly flights and its 40,000 seats will replace Ryanair’s withdrawal from this connection (it flew to Bergamo, the usual route for low-cost operators) and which also offered 11,500 fewer seats for that same period. But above all, we want to continue increasing the workload in the transport of goods. Right now, Zaragoza is the second airport in Spain in this section and since The Aragon Newspaper They point out that continuing to grow is one of the great objectives for next year. Back to the rates. It remains to be seen, however, how the issue of airport taxes and Ryanair’s threats turns out. The Irish company assures that if the expected increase continues from next year, its activities at regional airports will be reduced and, with them, the routes it has available in Zaragoza. Aena wants to apply a 3.82% increase to current rates in the period 2027-2031. The airlines, however, want the current fee to be reduced by 4.9%. The CNMC defends a rate cut of 0.59%a figure very far from the airlines’ claims but halfway between both parties. For now, Ryanair has welcomed this proposal from the CNMC but it is not confirmed that Aena will listen to her when proposing to the Government its plan for the coming years.

Spain has done its first major study on how many pets there are in the country. And he got a surprise

by

Spain is mired in a demographic revolution silent. And he doesn’t even star in it the migratory flowneither agingneither population movements between cities or any other of the many trends that we have been noticing for years. They are promoting the authentic revolution the petsthe dogs and cats that live in our homes. We knew that in Spain there are millions and millionsbut the census carried out by the Government has revealed an astonishing reality: it is already easier meet animals than with Spaniards under 30 years of age. And everything indicates that this gap will continue to widen. How many pets are there in Spain? If you take a walk around your neighborhood (no matter where you live) it is quite likely that you will find people walking dogs or the occasional cat hanging out of an apartment window. We don’t say it. This is said by the multiple statistics that for years have been trying to clarify how many pets live in Spain. They all agree that there are many (many), but their ‘photo’ is not always the same. Although the Animal Welfare Law forces register with microchip to all the dogs and cats, to the shelters they keep coming animals that do not meet that requirement. The result is that it is very difficult to know exactly how many pets there are in Spain. The Companion Animal Identification Network (REIAC) have registered 10.16 million dogs, 967,800 cats and 52,055 ferrets, Anfaac (the association of feed manufacturers) speaks of 6.96 million of dogs and 4.93 million felines and Aedpac estimates that in total they live in Spain 28 million of pets, a figure that other sources round up to approximate 30 million. Year Cats Dogs Others Total 2021 4.58 million 6.89 million 1.81 million 13.29 million 2022 4.76 million 7.08 million 1.85 million 13.69 million 2023 4.97 million 7.28 million 1.92 million 14.17 million 2024 5.29 million 7.42 million 1.95 million 14.66 million 2025 5.62 million 7.56 million 1.99 million 15.17 million The data: 15.17 million. Some time ago the Executive decided to prepare a National Statistics on Animal Protectionan ambitious work that, among other issues, includes “the first official study carried out by the Government on the number of companion animals in our country.” The task has not yet been completed, but a few days ago the Ministry of Social Rights decided to advance some of its first conclusions. And one of them helps to once and for all settle the debate about how many pets live in our country. According to his calculations, in Spain there are 15,171,569a figure obtained after reviewing the regional records between 2021 and 2025. To be more precise, technicians have identified 7.56 million of dogs and 5.62 million cats. The list closes with other species that also live in Spanish homes, such as rabbits, birds, reptiles or turtles. The Executive estimates that in total there are 1.99 million. At the territorial level there are no big surprises, the communities with the most pets are also the most inhabited: Andalusia (3.26 million), Catalonia (1.99) and Madrid (1.89 million). year Population under 10 years old Population under 30 years old 2021 4.19 million 14.05 million 2022 4.07 million 13.99 million 2023 4.01 million 14.18 million 2024 3.94 million 14.30 million 2025 3.86 million 14.43 million Is it important? Yes. And not only because it offers us a new official reference on the number of ‘furries’ that live in Spanish homes. Statistics help to better understand what type of pets we have, which are the most popular and, above all, how their population evolves. Of all the possible readings left by the Government data, this last one is probably the most interesting: those 15.17 million pets represent 14.1% more than in 2021, when the census of companion animals totaled 13.3 million. What does it mean? This percentage shows a growing population (in fact it has been growing steadily, year after year) and explains why pet care has become such an attractive business, something that happens both in Spain and in other countries. The last example is left to us by insurance companies and venture capital funds, which they are betting for veterinary coverage policies for dogs and cats. In general, EAE Business School calculates that pets already generate a business of 5.77 billion euros per year and ‘pet-money’ grows at 8.3% and supports 75,000 jobs. Are there so many pets? Yes, and one way to appreciate it is to resort to comparisons. We knew that in Spain it is much easier encounter with pets than with small children, but the latest data published by the Government offers us another even more shocking revelation: in our country we already there is more pets than people under 30 years of age. To be precise, in 2025 the INE had 14,432,931 inhabitants between 0 and 29 years old registered in Spain. If we talk only about children under 10 years old, the count is 3.86 million people. What does that mean? That in Spain there are much more dogs or cats than children and, if we talk about pets in general, the population of pets almost quadruples that of infants. It’s nothing strange. In Asia there are baby stroller manufacturers that they have started to be interested for another business niche with much more promising expectations: dog strollers.

Spain has a plan to completely renew DTT. More than half of households cannot comply

by

In Spain, DTT is on the verge of making the leap to DVB-T2. It is normal that these acronyms sound Chinese to you, so we are going to review the change that our televisions will face after the necessary retuning both to make room for a new channel that is to come, and for the migration to DVB-T2. The new channel. The BOE has published This weekend the resolution that awards a new television channel to Integrated Television Entertainment Services (SEVEN). The Ministry for Digital Transformation and Public Service awarded last May the license for a new DTT channel for 15 years, renewable to the company managed by Andrés Varela and linked to shareholders of the Prisa group. The first phase. SEVEN has a maximum period of six months to start its broadcasts, forcing the Secretariat to publish in the coming weeks a resolution with the exact date on which everything will start: the arrival of SEVEN, the retuning and the beginning of the technological migration will occur at the same time. What is a multiple. Before getting into acronyms, it is worth understanding how DTT works. The channels do not each broadcast on their own, they travel grouped in packages that share the same radio frequency. And those packages are called multiples. In other words, it is as if several channels shared the same highway to reach their destination, your television antenna. Until now, these multiplexes used the DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting – Terrestrial) standard. Its successor, as you may have guessed, is DVB-T2. This new multiple allows up to 68% more data to be transported and, secondly, replaces the H.264 codec with H.265 (HEVC). You may be familiar with these last acronyms, since almost all high-end phones record video by default in H.265: a more advanced codec that requires practically half the data to transmit the same image quality. What is going to happen and when. The calendar has been in the air since 2024 and, even today, it is not closed. What we know for the project is that this is a two-phase process: First phase: he state manifold RGE2shared between RTVE, Atresmedia and Mediaset2, will migrate to the DVB-T2 standard. In addition to the efficiency that we mentioned previously, the migration comes hand in hand with UHD emissions. Devices that do not support the standard will still be able to play HD content. Second phase: The definitive move to DVB-T2 marks that all televisions must be compatible with this standard to play content. It is something that, a priori, will take time to arrive. The complete change will not be made until two milestones are achieved: that at least 95% of DTT receivers are compatible with DVB-T2 and that at least 90% of televisions can receive UHD (4K) broadcasts. Go deeper. In short, Spanish DTT cannot be reorganized or begin the migration to the new standard until the new channel is up and running. This is why the arrival of SEVEN marks a before and after for the beginning of the plan. Nevertheless, according to the latest adoption figuresonly 36.6% of the television fleet is compatible with 4K broadcasts, very far from the 95% set by the Ministry for Digital Transformation and Public Service. The first phase is at your doorstep and should begin in 2026 according to the established plan, the second will not begin until the general picture changes. Since last year, Spain cannot legally sell a TV that is not compatible with DVB-T2 and that is not UHD ready, although the complete renovation of the park is not expected until after 2030.
