We know what that all those technical terms can be confusing especially with all those technical terms like 4K UHD, HDR, TB and so on. Our questions are very simple: Do you want to use catch-up TV services like iPlayer? Would you like to be able to pause live TV? Do you want to record TV shows to watch later and would you like to save lots of recordings to watch again and again?

In summary, our TV boxes are either fed by an aerial (Freeview) or a satellite dish (Freesat) and then connect up to your TV to give you hundreds of free to air channels. We have models with built-in storage so you can record and keep your favourite UK TV shows and others that are internet-enabled to bring catch-up and on-demand services straight to your TV.
