Consumer review (currys.co.uk)
Let’s you pause and rewind live tv, also not having to pay a subscription
Consumer review (currys.co.uk)
It's freeview
It has a mind of it's own,difficult to operate and will not always answer to the remote,seems to do it's own thing,wish I bought another set not B.T.
Consumer review (currys.co.uk)
Overall satisfaction is high.
Not as easy to use as my previous set; a freesat box. Remote is a bit fiddly. Buttons are quite small; a slightly larger control with bigger buttons would be welcome. The advice in the booklet is not as clear as it could be.
Consumer review (currys.co.uk)
Small compact box which is easy to use.
Problems with iPlayer buffering but other players work fine. I think the problem is the iPlayer compatibility rather than the box
Consumer review (currys.co.uk)
Pre-installed players are a great addition, and scrolling back on the guide to catch up is brilliant.
Not really a bad point, it's a bit pricier than some but you get what you pay for. There are some boxes much more expensive.
Consumer review (currys.co.uk)
Good signal and I like the pause live tv
Sound could be higher volume
Consumer review (currys.co.uk)
Great value for money and excellent picture quality. Only downside is the slow start up which I can't seem to change on settings but still very pleased.
Consumer review (currys.co.uk)
Easy to setup and use
Still haven't managed to program the remote to control the TV. Remote just freezes and i have to remove batteries and start again.
Consumer review (currys.co.uk)
Easy record and catch up features
Central control buttons on remote too close together
Consumer review (currys.co.uk)
Compact
The remote control buttons for forward,back,up and down are too close to the surrounding buttons making selection fiddly.
