Gi S8120

Comment: The old receiver did not like her husband only because it was not HD. Perhaps this was the main reason for buying a new one. In Nalchik, the prices are not the lowest for equipment, so going on business to Pyatigorsk, he chose several shops in advance, where he could find a receiver that would suit him with his own characteristics and price. And he found a model that suited him and me.
The receiver takes up quite a bit of space, unlike the older one, which is more bulky. Of the minuses, only one has been seen so far, again against the background of the old one - slow switching on and channel switching.
A fairly convenient remote control - the instruction was very helpful to deal with it, it is quite voluminous and, as it seemed to me, is able to answer all user questions appearing during operation. The console is not small, rather cumbersome - not very convenient, but it is difficult to lose it as it was with the past.
In front there is a slot for smartcards under the false-panel. The usb is located on the back panel - we connect an external hard disk of 3 TB to the receiver - and that’s what came in handy! And we watch everything downloaded in HD quality, as well as 3D. Very comfortably.
From the pros - what I personally like - the weather forecast, the channel sorting - separately into folders music, cartoons, movies, etc., convenient for me - immediately shows what is going on and what will happen next + the show time coincides with the local one.
If you want, you can still put a lot of nice programs and utilities, including torrents, YouTube, and others.
P.S. he was set up by his specialist, he also loaded the plugins with a part - we ourselves could understand several days. Not so easy as it turned out.
Definitely recommend!

Hello, a couple of years ago, my father and I were tormented by the conscience that I should have bought a satellite receiver at the highest level of segments, I had 10 years of experience. From the beginning of satellite broadcasting, they chose a lot of things, filtered them, looked for something like GI. 8120, this receiver has a lot of function. A good processor, it’s a bestseller on the market. Acquired at Antenmenmarket. Check-ins began after arrival, there is also a function like working with cardsharing, but we didn’t use it) Udo The BNU menu, Control A, Version Console # 2, is generally very pleasant. Updates for this device always came. Besides the built-in Spark system, it was possible to put the system as Enigma2, a very pleasant and refined system developed by each person, is a great pleasure, it also attracted support Wifi modules, and 3G modems, which entailed the presence of an Internet radio station and browsers for ezhto huge +,
In conclusion, I would like to advise him to those who have long been choosing something similar on the market, this receiver is the best in its price segment.

When bought, I could not get enough of this miracle! It has everything the receiver needs and even probably more, since new firmware is constantly being released in which manufacturers are not too lazy to add more and more interesting things. As for the picture, it performs its HD function at 100%, connected to the 65 diagonal and was simply amazed at the smoothness and clarity of the image. We often use it to watch movies in MKV format from a flash drive - it reads with a bang and even tried to connect a removable hard disk with two terabytes with my husband - it doesn’t slow down; 30-40 gig movies play with ease, that is, the tuner replaces the multimedia player entirely. If you have a router at home, then you can connect to the Internet and get even more opportunities, because it has the ability to install applications for every taste (from news and weather to watching movies online).
In general, I am completely satisfied - for such a price it is better not to find it !!!

Comment: Regarding the image, you need to discuss which TV will work in conjunction with the gi8120 (diagonal, model), if you have more than one satellite installed, you should take it with protocol 1.1, since there are no 12 volts on board, USB Wi-Fi adapters and work. This receiver is universal because you can install the spark shell firmware, and set enigma2 in which the possibilities are not limited and you can change the skins (menu), settings that you can not change through the usual user menu, make backup settings for a smooth transition to other images, a variety of image choices , installation of various add-ons that gives the receiver more multimedia as a device and does not limit it to any specific limits.
