TechniSat wins Freesat HD award

November 30, 2010

Judged by the editors of What Satellite & Digital TV, Home Cinema Choice, and consumer technology website Techradar.com, the Freesat Product Awards 2010 reward innovation across the categories of Freesat HD, Freesat + Recorders, and TVs. Products were acknowledged for excellent design, build quality, AV performance, and for including features that exceed the Freesat specification to bring greater functionality to the user.

The HDFS was judged the winner of the Freesat HD Receiver category and recognised for extending functionality to include the ability to playback music, movies and pictures from external storage devices and networked PCs – either via fixed Ethernet connection or optional Wi-Fi adaptor.

The HDFS received still further praise as it was judged to be runner up in the overall Freesat Product of the Year 2010 which covers products across all Freesat categories.

TechniSat UK’s Managing Director, Martin Cole, said, “Our thanks to Freesat for this award and to the editors at What Satellite & Digital TV, Home Cinema Choice, and Techradar.com. It is the ultimate recognition for a Freesat product that has consistently received awards and testament to the expertise of our R&D teams in the UK and Germany.”
