ONE BOX AND YOU’RE SET-TOP FOR LIFE

Reasons why the Humax Aura is a TV recorder with a difference

-

Humax’s new Aura is its most advanced set-top box ever – but it’s also much more than that. In 2020, a Freeview recorder isn’t just a hard drive with a remote: with our TVS now the hub of increasing­ly smart homes, Humax has created a device that does way more than just ensure you don’t miss an episode of The Repair Shop.

1 It’s powered by Android TV

The Aura is the first Freeview Play recorder ever to run on Google’s Android TV platform. That means you just need your Google account to set it up and in no time at all you’ll have access to all your favourite apps, including

Amazon Prime Video, Disney+ and BT Sport, while built-in Google Assistant means you can control it with your voice. It also supports Chromecast, so you can stream videos from your phone, tablet or laptop straight to the big screen.

2 It can do Ultra HD

Saved up for a 4K TV and want to make the most of it? The Humax Aura can show 4K and HDR10 content in all its glory, up to 2160p at 60Hz. Not a single pixel on your fancy new telly will be left out.

3 It’s got loads of space

Underneath its sleek black shell the Aura has three digital tuners, which means indecisive telly addicts will be able to record four shows at once while watching a fifth live. With access to over 70 subscripti­on-free channels and a choice of 1TB (£249) or 2TB (£279) of onboard storage, that means you can store up to 1000 hours of TV to watch later.

4 It works with your phone

Somebody hogging the sofa when you want to stream another episode of your latest obsession? Humax’s Aura app not only allows you to set recordings from your phone – it also lets you stream or download shows to watch in another room or on the go.
