Now TV Smart Box

Hi I was just wondering can I get a now tv smart box at a discount price or do I have to pay the full retail price as I'm a now tv customer?

If you are after a 4K nowtv smart box, then places like Curry's, Argos etc are selling these boxes for £24.99 with the  bundled passes where normally the SRP is £49.99.

Please note, that the 4K nowtv smart box doesn't have a inbuilt Freeview TV tuner like the discontinued older smart box.

Hi @Anonymous User

If you are after a nowtv box with the over the air Freeview channels as well, then you need a nowtv smart box generation one which are now discontinued and nowtv don't sell on their website anymore.

Here's a picture of the nowtv smart box where you will need to connect a TV aerial to the back of the box to watch the live Freeview channels.Smart_Box_main.png

With the NowTV smart Freeview box shown in my previous picture, you can watch live Freeview channels and there is a 30 min live pause feature button, but unfortunately the box can't record the Freeview channels Smiley Sad

Maybe watch a few YouTube videos about the nowtv Smart Freeview box so you can see what the box offers.

Here's a web review if you fancy a read about the box.

These nowtv smart Freeview boxes are getting difficult to find now, i don't think Curry's or Argos sell them anymore (perhaps try looking at Amazon, EBay etc for these smart boxes).

You wont be able to get free view channels, however you can download APPS on the Stick and Box such as the BBC I Player, ALL 4, Demand Five and ITV etc.

If you are a new customer and not looking for a smart box and don't mind a nowtv stick instead with a bundled pass, then nowtv have some cracking deals on their Black Friday sales website page.
