Smart Tv Box Vs Dstv Which Is Better by ameh99: 11:22am On Sep 07, 2016
Recently I bought an android TV box, the image when connected to my 32" LED TV was superb, came with kodi v16.1 pre installed which has about 4000 TV channels including all the favourite channels you can think of .





Few days ago I subscribe 2gb of data for #1000 and I was able to stream about 2 live matches.

By calculation it seems streaming is more affordable now since it's a pay per view service, unlike Dstv where one is forced to pay about #15k per month for full bouquet subscription services for one to watch all live EPL matches, services you might not have time to enjoy due to factors like powe and time..just an observation anwaygrin

If it has SkySports transmission for all big matches, then you are talking. Can I see the channels list for Premier League fixtures?

Until then, I don't mind sacrificing N9,420 monthly to have beloved SS3 HD on my Zapper. It's much but my love for football trascends the pain of parting with that cash.

Where did you get the ANDROID TV BOX FROM
Re: Smart Tv Box Vs Dstv Which Is Better by Phonefanatic: 5:15pm On Sep 07, 2016
We don't have reliable internet services yet so it's likely to be a headache when those silly network providers start their craze

Dstv is far cheaper because for you to stream HD sports channel for two hours will take like 2GB minimum and by calculation that's above 1k aside on glo network. Multiply that by 5games on Saturday and 3games on Sunday maybe one game on Monday night, you would have spent not less than 3k for 3days for just weekend games. Assuming you also love to see the latest movies and TV shows around the world. Then you will understand that Dstv is by far less expensive compared to any setup box.

The android box is definitely better. You would watch all sorts till you get tired, bored or exhausted..........
But data investment is a must. To watch movies once movie starts disconnect data, it seems to still stream,dont ask me how.........
