deanflute 550 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 They're not brilliant in my opinion, they're good though. If you like films and tv shows they're good. Get the sports too but not always brilliant quality. You need to do a fair bit of searching to find what you want. I prefer the skybox f5s to the android box, I paid £40 for the box and have used it a fair bit but now I've got my skybox up and running I will only use the android box for filmsWhy would you do that when the F5 let's you watch all the Movie Channels?? Do you mean Box Office movies??No I mean cinema relaesed films. This past couple of weeks I have watched American sniper, dumb and dumber to, taken 3. The daughter had watched Paddington and Annie. Me and our lass have been watching back catalogues of stuff like max and daddy and bottom. As I say it's good for stuff like that but as a direct replacement for sky I wouldn't recommend it, that'd what the f5s is forWhat's the picture quality like on the cinema releases? Any better than a pirate? Some are in HD mate, some have subtitles some are just filmed in the cinema and put on, like I say if you don't mind searching you usually find a good version. Its best to wait a week or two after the release for the decent HD versions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

billybaltic 308 Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 I find the picture quality great, i don't know why anyone would pay for sky unless they don't know about the boxes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

billybaltic 308 Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 I was using a skybox (what i called chipped) but last week got this other box and iv'e just looked properly at it and its got a pic of a green (alien) android on it and is called smart media player, i admit i don't have a clue how to sort them but have a mate who say's he puts the info on them and brings it down for me, this new one is brilliant, got everything, watched taken 3, american sniper(brilliant) and a few others, best thing ever.
