2 million

Number of Flex devices deployed by Comcast so far in 2020 (as of mid Sep) with 1 million devices deployed since May. Comcast CEO Brian Roberts provided this information during an investor event on 15 Sep. Roberts said Flex has helped contribute to Comcast’s strong broadband growth in 2020. He said that the second and third quarters combined are going to be better in terms of broadband net subscriber additions than anything that Comcast has seen in 10 years and that Comcast will “greatly exceed” the 1.4 million broadband net adds from all of 2019.
