Freesat launches new < free time > box

March 19, 2013 - Staff@seenituk

freesat_whiteFreesat, the BBC and ITV backed free-to-air digital satellite platform, has unveiled a white version of its new box.

Launched last September as a rival YouView, combines live channels with a backwards EPG and catch-up content from selected providers.

Although the service launched with the promise of catch-up players from BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5, only iPlayer and ITV Player are currently available.

Like its black counterpart, the new white box is manufactured by Humax.

It is also Wi-fi enabled and features 1TB of storage, enough to record around 600 hours of television.
  
Emma Scott, Managing Director of Freesat said: “We’re absolutely thrilled to announce the launch of our new white box with , it’s another brilliant addition to our fantastic product range.

“With its increased storage capacity and Wi-fi connectivity, accessing is even more inviting.  Viewer feedback shows that is an immensely popular service, particularly the Backward TV guide, On Demand Services and Showcase. Viewing television is one of life’s simple pleasures; our attractive new white box will now make that better still”. 
 
This latest Freesat+ box joins the existing range of Freesat digital satellite HD boxes and integrated HDTVs. It will be available to buy this week from retailers and online later this month at a RRP of £299.
 
Graham North, Commercial Director of Humax said: “Following the success of the first box, Humax has continued to innovate and lead the market, introducing a white model to appeal to those with design in mind. Combining style with award winning technology, the new Humax HDR-1010S/1TB delivers the very best < free time> experience yet.”
