Received in the mal and all was ok with packaging. Opened up and found a dongle that I could not hook to my bi screen tv because hdmi to hdmi adaptor needed because of location ov the tv so hooked to the bedroom tv. 720 on bedroom tv but had a open dmi port. turned on and the picture popped up and never seen that good of a picture on this tv. Easy setup even for a old fart. Don' t have one then get one and be surprised as I was.]]>

BuzzTV HD5 - unboxing

invalid@example.com (crazed 9.6) — Tue, 28 Jun 2022 04:54:12 +0000

BuzzTV did it again !

This HD5 has to be the best packed box yet.
*Well maybe the 4900 has that title. It came with a Mouse pad that doubled as protection inside the gift box, that was cool

And the HD5 gift box itself, is possibly their best design.
The gift box is packed in an outer sleeve which when removed allows the box to be opened up like you would open up a book to the middle page.
The inner packing is again top notch with the Dongle device fitted securely in it's place on one...
