There is a massive difference between the h2s and the i55 box,They may both have the same chip sets and processors but the fact the h2s has sat tuners means the chip sets operates in a different capacity,The i55 setup is purly for streaming,That is the way its programed,as for the magboxes being overrated then what a load of crap,Both boxes are top notch iptv devices,If you look there is a nice section on here about the i55,I have used both boxes a long time and exellent with the right broadband speed and setup,Simple terms and fact,Anyone who loves enigna 2 type skins and playing about and zgemma fans then the i55 is the one,If you are not confident on iptv setups and just want a simple setup box to watch all your tv then go for the newer mag 256 as its a big step up on the 254 but both are fantastic
