The Simple Life: Now With DVR


The mantra of the modern world is: simplify. We want more but it needs to cost less, be useful, be smaller and work better. And nowhere has that mantra been chanted louder than in the field of consumer electronics, especially when it comes to a Digital Video Recorder or a set top box from Freeview.

There are loads of different set top boxes and digital video recorders out there, all claiming to be the best on the market. But what is it that's truly important in any digital product design? What are the features that are really the most useful? For one thing, it should be easy for anybody to use. After all, nobody wants to mess around with manuals for hours before they can start enjoying the benefits of a new purchase.

So minimising frustration and hassle in daily use is key for the customer. With the growing concerns about global warming and carbon emissions, more and more consumers are demanding increased energy efficiency, both for when it's used and when it's made. Responsible retail has never been more important.

Of course, another essential requirement in any electronics purchase is affordability and value for money. Whether in the middle of a recession or not, nobody wants to pay more than something is worth. Nobody likes paying for something long after the novelty has worn off.

So with all the products claiming the top spot, which brand actually ticks all these boxes and more? Since 2004, TVonics has been manufacturing high-quality and energy efficient digital video recorders and Freeview set top boxes right here in Britain. For over five years TVonics has been refining the design of its digital products line, giving UK customers what they really want. 

That means Freeview set top boxes that are sleek and small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, while at the same time being simple to use. Besides being easy to operate and simple to set up, TVonics products also include relevant  capabilities like subtitles for the hearing impaired and Audio Description for the sight impaired, meaning anyone can enjoy a whole new world of entertainment.

And what about DVRs? It's great to have access to the world's best TV, but nobody can watch it for 24 hours a day. TVonics Digital Video Recorders come with both single channel and dual channel recorder options, depending on your needs. And simple one touch recording technology means no frustrating lists of complicated instructions. And for the true technology minimalist, there's the set top box and DVR in one.

Of course in the current economic climate, everyone's become more wallet-conscious. But that doesn't mean that all of life's pleasures are totally out of reach. Besides saving you money on electricity bills through strict EU efficiency standards manufacturing, TVonics products will also save you money right in the retail frontlines, with a range of affordable options. 

So that means all boxes ticked, from digital to cost, from features to planet saving.

Streamline your life and get the most out of every viewing experience with the digital range good enough for the connoisseur and easy enough for the layman.
