BuzzTV Gen 5 Buyer’s Guide

Below are the current BuzzTV Gen 5 models available for purchase.

I’m using the new BuzzTV Classic Edition in the video tutorials provided below however the videos pertain to all Gen 5 devices due to the fact they are running the same operating system. The main differences between the devices below are the hardware specs, remote controls, and PVR options included.

Everyone has their specific needs when it comes to streaming devices.

First, if you’re a heavy Netflix user and want to use one of these devices for that, stop right here. These devices are not Netflix certified which means they won’t play in maximum HD resolution. BuzzTV Android TV Boxes are designed for those who utilize IPTV Services and free streaming apps such as Kodi, Syncler, FilmPlus, etc.

If you’re planning on recording to this device, I suggest purchasing a model with at least 32GB of internal storage. Yes, you can record to USB but that’s less than desirable. You will have less problems recording to internal storage. You will also learn more below about PVR+ and regular PVR which is also important if you are going to record quite often.

I also suggest buying a BuzzTV model that includes a Bluetooth remote instead of IR. Bluetooth remotes are more responsive and you don’t need to point the remote directly at the box.

Here’s a comparison chart that indicates which devices come with Bluetooth remotes and which come with IR.

Remote Comparison Chart

Note: The new BuzzTV Classic is not included in this chart but does come with a Bluetooth remote (BT-250).

BuzzTV’s “No Hassle PVR+” allows you to set scheduled programming to record the shows you want to watch. The BuzzTV device will automatically power on & record your show.

Enjoy the ability to pause, rewind, and fast forward on Live TV with TimeShift, included on all of our devices. *Compatible with most live TV streams

With the BuzzTV 5 App all devices come standard with PVR & TimeShift.
