Humax HD-FOX T2 (Freeview HD) Review




Recently, I reviewed the Humax Freesat HD, but then I thought: what if I don't want a satellite fitted - what if I really want the plug and play functionality and ease of not waiting for the professionals come around and hook you up? 

So I took a good look at the market for these bad-boys and found that you can actually get a Freeview HD (DVB-T2) box pretty cheap from your local, Argos or from Amazon. So, off I trotted looking for the best deal, and eventually deciding that I could not be bothered with any hassle, so I nipped into Argos and parted with £149.99 of my hard earned cash, all in exchange for the HUMAX HD-FOX T2 HD receiver.

Humax FoxSat-HD (Freesat) Review

Humax FOXSAT-HD - Review
After reviewing one of Humax's freeview plus DVRs, I’ve been lucky enough to get a good look and hands on with the similar, but very different, Humax "freesat HD" box. This product is slightly smaller than the 9150T, and has a few extra and also a few less features than the counterpart that I recently reviewed.

Humax 9150T Freeview Plus Review


Humax Freeview Plus - Review
It took me a while to decide, but recently I purchased a new PVR. After a lot of thought and deliberation, I eventually decided upon the Humax Freeview Plus 9150T 160GB PVR. And to be frank, for the money, I couldn’t have done much better.

Sky+HD boxes - World Cup limited edition 1TB.

At last, a major player in the UK is acknowledging the need for more storage space in DVR's. Maybe soon we'll get more tan two tuners -_- or is that going a bit too far maybe?


BSkyB has announced Sky+HD Limited Edition (for the world cup) boxes, which unfortunatly come in gaudy football related flavours, for just £249 - bargain... 


What they think you'll do when the 'cups over I don't know. Go back to your old box because you didnt really need 2< tuners, 320GB< anyway?
