H82S

[Sir Osis]

Anyone got a H82S and would you recommend it?
I'm looking for a reasonably priced Combo.

Besides the H82S being HD and not 4k is there much going against it?
Thanks
(I know this is a H2S forum but there is no dedicated H82S section)

if it's not 4k then chances are it won't play IPTV on it if that is a requirement

Not much point buying a non 4K box

 

[Sir Osis]

Thanks,I'll go for a more expensive H7 or similar instead.
Cheers lads.

Thanks for the guidance lads,I bit the bullet and bought an Octagon Sf8008 on ebay.de

Seems to be a lot of positives about those boxes.
I still have a couple of zgemmas but I'm looking forward to my new piece of kit...hopefully have it this week.

Just as a matter of interest
1. Is it a new box you bought?
2. What did you pay for it?

I only ask as I was looking around for one and want to see did I miss a trick.

Both live over in Ireland may know a trick or two to avoid customs charges.

From Germany to Ireland has no customs charges! So it would be €122 to our doors, that other shop that also has a forum will take off the UK VAT, and sell it for £90 (from £109) and charge me 15 pounds delivery (around 120 euro) but I'd be liable to customs duty plus Irish VAT (Approx €25) so the Ebay one direct from Germany is our cheaper option.

BUT, I have a mate in NI, so I could get it from them delivered for £109 (€125 ish)
