I had intended to write a review about Freesat HD TV but as there is no category (I've just made a suggestion) I've decided to write about Freeview as a precursor. I think Freeview is one of the best advancements in TV viewing in recent years. It is a useful and necessary alternative to Sky satellite and Virgin cable paying ...  Read the complete review

A couple of years ago, I lived with my mum and we had Sky TV, which I loved. I'd sit for hours on end watching all sorts of things. However, I then moved in with my dad, and he told me he did not have Sky in his house. My heart sank. I'd become so addicted to it, I didn't know how I'd ever live without it! However, I soon ...  Read the complete review

Although I have Sky+, I also own a Freeview box from when I lived away at Uni and couldn't afford Sky. While it will always be the lesser choice to Sky's epic selection of programming, it is still incredible how much diverse content there is given that all you have to do is pay the paltry £30 for the Freeview box! Freeview is digital ...  Read the complete review

I live in Manchester and the digital switchover took place at the beginning of December. This meant that the analogue signal that used to transmit BBC1, BBC2, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 to homes around the region was switched off and everybody had to buy a Freeview box in order to watch television. Although I knew the ...  Read the complete review

We've had our TV service delivered by Virgin Media and its predecessors (Cabletel, :ntl...) for over 10 years now so you might be wondering why I should be bothering about writing a review of Freeview since I can clearly get all the Freeview channels and more with our cable service! Well, let's say that in the past, and even ...  Read the complete review

We have been using freeview for so many years and we're one of those satisfied customer so we got another one for our bedroom which only cost us £18. It's the cheapest one from tesco, and the brand is called dion. Well I'm honestly not familiar with that name but I don't mind the brand really as long as it works. The good thing is it's ...  Read the complete review

We used to have Sky but got rid of it when we realised we spent most of our time watching 'normal' TV, however after spending a while having just 5 channels we found this very limiting and there was often nothing to watch. Not wanting to pay £40 a month again we decided that we would get a Freeview box and see what channels we could get ...  Read the complete review

Freeview is a range of popular channels that can be accessed using a Freeview tuner. You can buy Freeview boxes that can be plugged in to the analog aerial slot but the majority of new TVs have a built in Freeview receiver.

Freeview is great if you can get it, i highly recommend you check the signal in your area before you get a set top box and check that your tv aerial is strong enough.
