Humax HD-Fox T2 Freeview HD Receiver

Humax HD-Fox T2 HD Digital Terrestrial Television Receiver

Humax have done it – they have released the first Freeview HD set-top box in the UK. This is the first device to enable you to watch subscription-free High Definition content from the BBC and ITV – so long as you can receive Freeview HD over a standard TV aerial (use the coverage checker here).

Humax HD-Fox T2 Freeview HD Box review

The much-anticipated device is a definite improvement on the previous Freeview boxes from Humax in the looks department. The all-black unit has a semi-reflective front panel with centrally located circular control and will look great underneath your HD TV. The dimensions are similar to a conventional Sky+ box or digital TV receiver – 28cm wide, 4.5cm high and 20cm deep.

As the first device on the market, there is no real surprise that this is a Freeview HD Receiver – not recorder. So at present, there is no way of recording HD content to be played at a later date (these devices are expected in the summer of 2010 from Humax and a whole host of other manufacturers).

That aside, it seems Humax have certainly done their homework and listened to feedback based on customer experience of their previous Freeview boxes.
