There doesn’t seem to be any Netflix either, although BritBox and Prime Video is here alongside lots of other apps. No need to keep jumping around and trying to remember which streaming service is offering your favourite show. The recording function is very poor and seems to interfere with the internet transmission of other programmes while it's operating. This is not a pile of application stacked-up but a consistent user experience to minimise the time you spend finding your next content and maximise your connected entertainment.

These headline features are the main difference with the earlier models, which we reviewed here, with the rest of the system and user interface remaining unchanged. I also found that recording from live TV would block me from switching to other live TV channels, which was something I wasn’t really used to. I could use bluetooth directly to the soundbar but then the other HDMI inputs use the optical output. Tastemade – Food, Home and Travel – From quick recipes to original series enjoy cooking and travel stories from around the world.The HDMI cable helps us to see screen text better so we can study the sign ins and terms and conditions. The box has a wide range of apps to select from, in fact BT Sport was recently added in the past month or so. This is a totally subjective issue, but I like to have the TV Guide front and centre and other services available at a button press, whereas Netgem has gone for a slightly weirder presentation. Apparently, this aids discoverability, as you get a whole bunch of programmes and movies tailored to you when you first open the page.

The USB drive has to have a minimum of 32GB, but more is preferable, as recordings take a lot of space – especially if you record HD content. The T3 doesn’t have recording, however, so if that’s a feature you require then the Netbox 4K has the T3 beat.if you have slower apps, w/older sony cpu, non-updated apps w/Panasonic, flashing LG oled in native h/w , or want itunes 4k . So explore and keep exploring while you can to get better adjusted to what's on Freeview and beyond when using the Internet as well. All in all, it’s a decent selection of apps and channels, but Netflix is notably missing, and so is NOW TV.
