Hello experts,
I have been using D2H for past 1 year (South platinum HD Annual Subscription Rs. 5404)
As the due date is nearing i am just thinking if it is good idea to switch to Airtel HD+
Overall i should say that i am satisfied with D2H so far and following are some of my experience
Pros
1. It was cost effective and offered many no. of channels so i never felt that i missed any so far
2. HD channels reception was good and i enjoyed watching all sports channels through out (especially last IPL in Sony Six HD which is still not available in Tata sky HD)
Cons
1. Initially SD Tamil channel quality looked bad when compared to my previous SCV box but with little tuning here and there quality seems improved or over the period of time i got used to it![Smile :-) :-)](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png)
2. If it is cloudy or little rain then reception will become bad and gets disconnected often. The recovery time usually will be 10 to 15 min. It is little worse than the Sun DTH at my neighbors place.
3. Remote sometime becomes sluggish and has slow response time
Now annual recharge of D2H south platinum HD is Rs.5770 and that of Airtel HD+ South Mega pack is Rs. 5850
I was little excited with Airtel HD+ as it provides USB recording but one thing that i am concerned is no. of channels when compared to D2H. May be i need to check extensively what 200+ additional channels that D2H is providing when compared to Airtel.
Also is Tamil SD channels quality in Airtel is better than D2H ?
I use Samsung LED 80cm UA32EH4000 TV and a typical Chennaite who most of the time watches tamil and sports channels. Occasionally English and Hindi movies.
Awaiting for your valuable suggestion at the earliest !
Thanks,
Karthik
