Hi guys,
I got a call and offered me Astro Ultra box to replace my current pvr. With the new ultra box, the storage will be on cloud.
Currently am using Maxis Fiber Home 30Mbps. Not sure if this is sufficient. I was told that it works similar to Nexflix.
Based on my understanding, there are pro and con as listed below.
Pro:
- able to view some channels (at the moments) in UHD such as sports.
- storage will be on cloud, which means you can watch your recorded program anywhere (on the go) on device such as phone and tablet.
- better UI and user experience
Con:
- as storage will be on cloud, recording and viewing requires internet connection, which means if internet is not stable, it will impact recording and viewing.
- contract 2 years
Just wondering should i change to ultra box. Appreciate your opinion on this.
Anyone here participated in the beta program, maybe can share your experience and thoughts on this.
Thanks in advance.
