TrueID tv box sold in 7-eleven

[cyril sneer]

They have these boxes for sale in my local 7-eleven for just 300 baht

 

Does anyone know anything about them? Are they an android box or do they require an aerial?

 

I've tried googling but it comes up with boxes for 2000-3000 baht on Lazada

From what I found online it looks like 300 for the Android box and then a package at 2 to 3000

From the limited view of the box in the photo it would seem to me this is an IPTV 

box  maybe based on android but maybe True's own version/implementation of it...

no aerial,  internet required ( possibly only True internet) most likely a few channels for "free"  and add on packages for things like the "premier league"

the box is just black all over, doesn't give any info

 

might be worth getting if they offer the same online package for sports channels for just 300 baht a month, might not be that simple though

Yes, yes is an Internet box proprietry to True. We got one for free earlier in the year. The interface is hard to use and it doesn't offer much beyond the usual Thai free to air content. I think we used it once or twice,

It looks like the True Box I have. Got it for free I use it everyday to watch Netflix, YouTube, football on BEIN Connect. Worth having. If it doesn't come with a remote (It should) then download 'Android TV' App on to your phone.

 

The smaller of the two boxes. It connects in to the tv.

I downloaded on my phone and subscribed to BEin connect app - don't remember how much but it was cheap. On the box I downloaded the BEin App. I log in on my phone and connect the phone and BEin App on the tv to watch.

 

We already have a True tv package with Premier League, but I think through the box you can subscribe just for a PL package (i can see THB 149 and THB 249 on the screen).

Premier league costs 299 Baht a month. Every game is live.

Plus catch up and re runs.

I've had True IDTV boxes for a couple of years, not too many complaints. I have the package for EPL so in terms of Live TV I use it for that.

 

But I also have lots of other apps available via the google play store on there such as Netflix, HBO and Disney.

 

Best of all, I've got an app for my other IPTV service for picking up UK and other channels 

 

Also very good as a media player if you want to plug in a hard drive or USB stick with movies on it. (I'd recommend adding VLC or another media player to handle those files)
