10 Tips for Buying a Digital TV Set Top Box
2

• With the digitization of almost everything around
  us today, the one thing that we definitely come
  in contact with atleast once a day is the TV, of
  course. Over the past few years, there has been
  this mayhem about all the new digital brands and
  all the offers that genuinely leaves regular,
  average people dumbfounded with what could be
  best for them.

• were going to list out certain things that you
  got to look out for before you get yourself
  a Digital set top box or TV set top box

4
Know what are you looking for

• If you have a list of what you want to or a
  mental mind map of what you would essentially
  like, finding it makes it easy. There are a
  plethora of options and if you have a clear idea
  in mind, nothing helps as much as this.

5
Knowing your brand

• Before we purchase a dth set top box, it is
  important that we know our brands and those that
  are available to us, like dish tv connection
  among the rest like airtel, tata sky, to name a
  few. The biggest benefit today is the available
  options and the fact that you can take a quick
  check about what you want and need.

6
Prices

• Most people consider paying on a monthly basis
  over the one time fees for a dth connection, but
  little do they realise that it would cost a lot
  lesser paying the initial cost. All the service
  providers would offer a few basic packs which
  would be in the range of the lowest to highest
  offer.

7
Packages and Offers

• All the service providers would offer a few basic
  packs which would be in the range of the lowest
  to highest offer. Though it may take time, make a
  list of channels that you would want and opt for
  a dth service provider which has all your
  required channels at a minimum rate. For example
  The DishTV prices seem fairly reasonable for
  their appealing packages.

TV Set up box type

• It is essential to know what kind of a dth
  connection your set top box has. You essentially
  need to look into whether it consists an SD, HD
  or HD set top box and accordingly you will find
  different offers.

9
User friendly

• It is important that your SD/HD set top box is
  easy to use. It needs to be simple and steer away
  from making things too complicated for their
  users.

10
Maintenance

• Warranty and Maintenance is another factor to
  judge to when it comes to settling on an HD or SD
  set up box. Taking into account the strange
  weather conditions and the fluctuations in the
  power supply, failure of the set top box in India
  is definitely on the higher side.

11
Facilities

• The Dishtv new connection provides many
  facilities like recording, free to air channels
  for three years, 1 year warranty, the option to
  view paid channels at a really low price. And
  these benefits are only naming a few.

12
Services

• In instances like the one mentioned above,
  customer support must not only be available but
  accessible as well.

13
Reliability

• There are two ways of going about with this, one
  is calling them directly and being aware of their
  waiting period. How long it takes them to get
  back to their customer and get that issue
  rectified is a huge reflection on the brand
  itself. Second, checking out the reviews and the
  opinions of other users could help judgment.

14

• Call the customer care number of the DTH service
  provider to know details before coming to your
  conclusion.
