Grundig GUD300HD DVB-T2 Freeview HD Box

Grundig and Goodmans have both launched similarly sounding and similarly looking Freeview HD boxes – which are in fact the same models only with a slightly different apppearance.

The finer details are a little sketchy right now, despite it being available to buy at Amazon and a host of other mail-order retailers (see the price comparison below for the cheapest price).

The device has two scart sockets, an HDMI socket required to link to your HD TV and an ethernet port which should be used to enable internet services like BBC’s iPlayer when it is made available on Freeview HD boxes later in the year. There is also a USB port for updating the firmware, although there is no indication whether this will allow playback of media files such as pictures, music or video files from removable USB storage.

As you would expect, the GUD300HD has an 8-day EPG and boasts the common ability to upscale standard definition Freeview signals in to high definition when used with a HD TV and HDMI cable. As with other devices, don’t expect these upscaled images to compare to the true HD channels provided by BBC and ITV.
