  • Abstract:  My first surprise was that it required Ethernet to do ‘catch up' TV most units today will do the same with Wi-Fi but if Ethernet is close by it is no real problem.I tried this unit attached to both my own TV and also during the test period to one that was...

  • Abstract:  Not to be confused with Freeview, which delivers its content via a standard aerial, Freesat is a subscription-free service that does require the presence of a satellite dish. Depending upon your location, you can receive up to 200 channels including 11 HD...

  • Smartlooking design and solid build, Free Time EPG works well, media playback capability
  • No Demand 5 or 4OD yet, TV portal needs more apps, WiFi not builtin, 1TB version only £20 more expensive

  • Clean, detailed picture, Great sound, User-friendly, Nice integration of catch-up TV
  • Neither looks nor feels very premium, Limited on-demand content for now
  • So if great sound, superb picture quality and one of the most user-friendly TV experiences out there sounds like everything you want from a PVR, the Humax HDR-1000S is the one to get. Just don't go thinking this is Freesat's answer to YouView. It isn't q...

  • Stylish box, great interface and EPG, not too expensive, good picture quality
  • Lack of 4oD and Demand 5 is unforgivable, media streaming is slow, has problems with shorter recordings and misses the end/start sometimes, no Wi-Fi
  • Freetime could be one of the hardest things we've had in for review to score. On the one hand, the hardware looks smart, ticks all the right boxes and the software on the device is stylish and functional. But none of that matters a damn when you ha...

  • The Freesat platform has evolved to the point where it’s a viable alternative to Freeview in terms of the number of channels available. If you’re not bothered about premium content (or can’t afford it), it’s a respectable option for thrifty telly fans...

  • Decent network functionality, Sumptuous picture quality, Free Time EPG, Twin Freesat HD tuners
  • No built, in Wi, Fi, No 4OD or Demand 5 yet
  • With its user-friendly operating system, generous feature list and slick performance, the HDR-1000S is one of the best Freesat receivers around. The sophisticated-yet-simple Free Time EPG brilliantly combines on-demand and broadcast TV, and when 4OD and ...

  • Onscreen menus a joy to use, Excellent picture quality, Decent range of network features
  • No built-in Wi-Fi, No 4OD and Demand 5 yet, Inconsistent EPG layout
  • The Humax HDR-1000S is a wonderful Freesat PVR, mixing broadcast and on-demand TV content with even more panache than its YouView rival. The Free Time EPG is the highlight, making it easy to find content with its slick, sophisticated onscreen presentation...

  • Updated user interface, BBC and ITV Player catch, up integration, Fine image quality, Low operational noise, Multimedia file support
  • Buggy behaviour, Catch, up players misbehave, 500GB version poor value
  • The germs of a good upgrade for the Freesat platform are here, but this debutant this has been bundled out before it's ready. Given how much polish went into YouView, this fumbled rush to market comes as a bit of a surprise....
