SX Freesat HD Box

Brilliant product, easy to set up, even for me great picture and good price, what’s not to like

Was recommended this for a Welsh holiday home - best price on Amazon! Works a treat. Easy to set up and use. Looks smart too.

Easy setup very compact. The remote control is very flimsy . In the very short time I've had it the buttons on it are not working I found it difficult to connect WiFi but product support told me that WiFi connection is not required as the only use for WiFi was for software updates but updates are received over satellite link. Of the hundreds of channels you will receive you can mark some of them as favourites but to get to them requires a couple of menu selections. A single favourite button is not available on the remote

Perfect my old Freesat box which cost me £130 pounds died on us . Manhattan was a lot cheaper and perfect . Than you for quick delivery, great service.

Brilliant little box, easy and fast set up, hardest thing was internet access, long long code. Great picture. Now they need to make a recordable freesat box.

Worked straight out of the box. You get everything you need to connect it to your TV. You get the Manhattan Freesat box. Power cable. HDMI cable also you get a scart connection for older tv's also you can use RGB leads that plug straight into your TV. These also plug into the scart adapter if you don't have RGB. But all modern tvs use hdmi. The picture quality is very good to say it's 1080HD. To set the box up you just enter your postcode. And follow the on screen instructions very easy to setup. If you turn the box off using the remote you will see the Manhattan logo. Then you will see please wait this is only because it's downloading the TV guide. You get a TV guide but what I like most about it is if your watching a TV channel but the same channel is available in HD then it asks you would you like to watch it in HD press OK button and it will turn over the channel to HD. Loads of channels to choose from. If you prefer to watch all the channels that are available in HD they are in the higher numbers like BBC HD etc etc. Lots of Christmas movies channels on at the moment it's November 2022. The remote is very easy to use. You get a volume button but that only highers the volume on the box. After that you will need your TV remote to turn the volume up higher. Channel button up and down. TV guide button. And you can enter the TV channel you want to watch by using the TV guide or just the numbers on the remote.

Auto setup. Just switched on and it setup all the channels in the right order. Very nice menu/channel guide. Very easy to use. Wee bit slow on startup but then again most things seem that way these days. Excellent box, very pleased with purchase. Slight niggle - signal strength/quality not visible.

I recently moved to a property with a Freesat sattelite dish, so I wanted an inexpensive Freesat box. This box was simplicity itself to connect & set up. The device takes a little while to boot up when you first turn it on, but I have now set it up to be permanently on (no standby), so there is no delay when I turn on my TV. The scan was very quick, and it found 184 channels. The user interface is intuitive & easy to use, and the EPG works well. The remote control is a little small compared to my TV & HD recorder remotes, but it works fine, providing you point it directly at the box. The box has an F-connector input for your LNB lead, an HDMI output for your TV, and a small jack connector for the supplied A/V cable. This cable terminates in 3 phono plugs (L & R audio, and yellow composite video). These can be plugged directly into the inputs of your device, or into the supplied phono-to-SCART converter. I used the SCART converter to plug into my HD/DVD recorder. Unfortunately, while the picture quality from the HDMI output to the TV is excellent, the A/V output is very poor! The picture is blurry and produces poor quality recordings. I'm not sure why this is, but I have knocked a star off for this reason. I can recommend this little Freesat box for straightforward viewing using the HDMI output, but unfortunately the Composite video output image quality is very poor. I don't know if this is a problem with my own box, or a general problem with this product, but it was bad enough for me to knock a star off in my review.

Excellent device which has greatly improved access to UK TV to our Philips kitchen set in France. Even the sound has improved. It was delivered very promptly.

Plugin and follow the instructions - everything is up and running within 10 minutes. Small, compact and good. Highly recommended to watch UK TV in Europe.
