Immediately after unpacking the device really small you could start immediately after the connection of just three connectors (network, Satellittenkabel and HDMI cable). The HD + card was already inserted, and also did not have to be activated separately. The HD channels are all pre-programmed, so you could really get started immediately.
The list of TV channels is quite jagged adapted to your needs, so that no one here has to say goodbye to his accustomed Zapp rituals. The on-screen menu is generally kept simple and straightforward and follows the style of Samsung TV sets. So if you have ever set up a Samsung TV, will come here immediately familiar. And even without brand loyalty you quickly to where you want to go.
For the realized and probably necessary update was the receiver a night on standby, after that he was satisfied and there are no annoying messages or search or similar brim booting the device. Even if he was not completely isolated from the power supply via socket with switch.
The boot time I have now measured, but so far, the receiver was not a single time later ready as the TV or the Xbox One. The feared here restrictions were not yet on in any way.
Optimal (ie for a 5 star rating) would be for my taste an included HDMI cable and a slightly wertigere remote because the supplied standard remote control but badly behind the smart remote controls of the Samsung TV is lagging behind.
Otherwise, the receiver but for each, the simple and fast HD enjoyment longs for a definitive recommendation as construction, setup and operation are quick and easy.
