Now in my opinion this is kinda not that great move by airtel..
Technically, they shud have gone for a bit higher ram and processor along with a slightly higher internal memory/HDD.. Why u ask? Cos the PQ is 4k at 60FPS and it is hardware hungry and it will take up a lot of juice from the ram and processor. Plus, memory of 8 gb will not be fully available as part of it will be taken up by the OS itself...
Cost wise, pretty decent as all channels + the box at 8k is something that one wud definitely go for..
There's also the fact that one would need a 4K TV to make the best use of it. But, will the existing 1080p content be upscaled to 4K by the box? I don't knw if that doesnt happen then we'll have to see how well the PQ will be.. cos, I've seen the PQ on the D2H 4K box and it was total crap as the box outputs 1080p on a 4K TV and it was similar to watchng 576p content on a 1080p screen.
Overall, not so happy with the offering, But appreciate the thought that airtel has gone for this tech.. Surely there will be a lot of improvements in the coming days and months..
