EETV v BTtv - Box Pro differences - are there any?

I'm a BT customer and as a part of my long running broadband issues I've had the BT Box Pro replaced by the EE branded Box Pro.

They are slightly different sizes and carry different branding - but are there actually any techinical differences?

@ozsat When you go into Settings Device Information on your box what does it show as the Variant of your box ?

There is a new Bluetooth remote which has less buttons than the old remote. Some buttons have two functions, such as the Record button which can also be used to delete a recording.

The old infrared remote still works on the new box which is useful if you have one and are used to the layout (and extra buttons).

Both boxes use the same bluetooth remote.
