OVERBOX Freeview Satellite Receiver Full 1080P Review

Great little feature packed Freeview box with so much more, I wanted a Freeview box for the bedroom but also wanted something I could customise heavily so as to have it set up exactly as I wanted and after having a good look around this seemed ideal and within my budget.


It arrived in an OVERBOX branded flip top box with the main box in a white protective sleeve and under a cardboard separator it had the remote control, HDMI cable, the power lead and the manual. The manual is very detailed running through the setup alongside trouble shooting suggestion should you run into problems, there are linked diagrams on all pages giving you a good indication of exactly what you should be seeing, I found it very helpful and good to return to while setting up and testing different features and settings.


I linked up a hardwire network connection but I also tested the WiFi which worked perfectly, once I selected my dish it scanned and found all the channels without any issue, the box has a multitude of features such as IPTV very simple to set up and I also inserted a 64gig USB stick I have which allowed me to test the recording features which worked flawlessly a nice feature that allows it to be used as a PVR (personal video recorder) ideal for capturing a few shows to watch from live TV.


The box itself is very compact and has HDMI, Scart, USB and Ethernet socket on the back giving numerous means of connection, the remote control works well and is clear and fully referenced in the manual, I have added a video and will also add some pictures showing the unboxing and some footage while using it and setting it up going through the various features and settings.
