My plan is to switch to EE TV once my sky runs out in Jan, as long as the UI is as good as sky.
It isn’t by a long stretch.
Sky have ropey hardware but access to all the content and the best UI in the business, meanwhile BT/EE have well powered hardware running a UI from the 90s, less access to content and more ‘stream identifier rectangles’ than any other platform out there “so they can spot illegal streams”, but in reality catch barely anyone (they are all watching US streams on a VPN), and just spoil the viewing for paying customers.
If you like voice search/functions (like skip 4 minutes), and a Netflix integration with your main watchlist, you will be disappointed. It works fairly well as a straightforward PVR though.
It’s why many of us are waiting to see what the Apple TV EE app integration looks like. It might give us what Sky Stream dreams it can do, on hardware that provides access to all the apps the TV box does not.
