Easy Set Up, Great Picture Quality

Based on my observations, this external TV tuner has been an excellent addition to my entertainment system. The set-up process was a breeze and the picture quality is top-notch. The ability to record my favorite shows and stream them to multiple devices is a major plus. However, the occasional user interface glitches can be frustrating. Overall, a great investment for any avid TV watcher.

Pros
  • Provides access to both local and streaming content in one interface.
Cons
  • Requires an additional subscription to access some streaming content.

I tested a number of devices that transmit OTA signals and it was the easiest setup and the most efficient experience. The longest part of the setup was connecting the cables and the hardest part was finding the slingTV app on my phone. My family can't tell the difference between OTA and OTI (Internet) streams, which was the goal. **Updated after weeks of use** This device never stops streaming like some other OTA streamers we tested. It's now our favorite program for everyone who watches OTA…

Pros
  • Made for Sling TV - Seamlessly integrate local channels with your favorite Sling channels for universal access. *Sling subscription not required for local channels
Cons
  • Annoys

Beta product - probably AirTV 3

Reviews unclear. This product only works with Roku. It only works with SlingTV if you have Roku. If you don't have Roku, you won't get channels on your SlingTV app. I have a Roku Ultra, selecting an over-the-air channel causes the SlingTV app to freeze 50% of the time. You'll need to return to the Roku home screen and reload the SlingTV app. I would think any SlingTV app would be able to access the channels on any device. NO. Roku app only. Only on the Roku, which is the only device that can…

Pros
  • Record Local Channels Live - Record up to two shows simultaneously and set up individual episode or series recording at home and on the go. While recording, you can pause, rewind, and rewind the live broadcast. *Requires external hard drive, sold separately
Cons
  • Slightly torn
