Easy to set up

The Sony VTX D800U Freeview Sigital is a typical Sony product, very easy to set up & use giving a brilliant TV picture much better than my Sky Dish. I am not able to coment on the reliability of this product as I have only had it for two weeks.

Sony VTX-D800U Freeview Digital TV Set Top Box: Sony don't just make great televisions!

 

Without a doubt, the most reliable freeview box I have owned! This was the first freeview box I ever purchased and paid £92 for it, which was a couple of years ago so I assume pfar cheaper now. Design: The box itself is a great design, it can be stood...
