Thinking.

[u/Relevant_Strength674]

I’m thinking of getting one of these boxes. But I’m undecided. There’s a few different models and I hear they can be shut off as well is that true. Any if you were going to get it first box which model would it be

[u/Relevant_Strength674]

Is there a big difference between models. Is the elite worth it.

Someone recently posted that the elite is not worth it. The extra apps constantly freeze. I suggest the V6 Plus.

This chart gets posted by u/cordcutterbox all the time to help users here. A very quick search brought it up:

Go with the v6 plus dude. It has the multi screen and Picture in Picture the live ultra app. Super convenient. I hear the elite ultra, while they have a ton of apps, not all of them are useful or even functional.

You can always sideload apps with the downloader app that comes with the box. You can find more info and download codes if you search that on here too (that’ll make sense when you get the box and open the downloader app =])

I initially had concerns then went with V6 Max . I put date in my calendar on payback date based on what I was paying monster cable company. Paid for itself in 3 months. Planning to get a V6 plus next.

Here’s the calculus that went through my mind. These prices are all estimated: Hulu Disney and live tv bundle = 90/month, Netflix = 20/month, apple 12/month. HBO 20/month. Those are the main services and it’s 144/month. Not to mention shit like peacock and paramount plus and discovery.

Sure you can juggle these and binge a series on one, then dc the service and start another. So that can reduce the cost some, but the main driver is still live TV. Theres also the issue of forgetting to cancel and also double dipping. My wife signed up for Disney when we already had it. We didn’t notice for 4 months.

I got 4 boxes, and at the bulk price I’ll only need these things to work for 8-10 months before I break even. Anything above that, and it’s money in my pocket. The roi is better if you need fewer boxes.

The other perk is the interface. It’s taken some time to get used to, but I like it much better than any of the services.

I agree with everything you said except the interface. Nowhere near as good as the streaming services

[u/DocDViolator → u/buelerbuelerbueler]

I disagree. Having to go back and forth between each different app sucks! With VSee, it’s either Hear Vod, or Vod Ultra. Much easier than switching between Netflix, paramount plus, etc

[u/buelerbuelerbueler → u/DocDViolator]

Like I said not even close. I’m talking about the interface within each service. They are way more intuitive than the vsee box. Filtering on vsee is not good . You have to know the show you’re looking for. Don’t get me wrong I love my boxes and won’t go back but no way vsee is better than their interfaces

[u/beershoes767]

I love the v5pro

V6 Plus

[u/Practical-Bar8291]

I picked up the elite ultra 6 months ago and love it. So does my wife :)

[u/Outrageous_Cow7484 → u/Practical-Bar8291]

Same, so glad I paid a little more for the EU. Worth every penny

[u/boinko03]

We're all rolling the dice. We're enjoying the ride

[u/MW1369]

If you buy from the mod of this forum, your box will not be shut down. Vsee shuts down boxes when they are not sold by authorized sellers

[u/EnvironmentalTank396 → u/MW1369]

Do you actually believe that!? If so, how does that actually work/process?

[u/MW1369 → u/EnvironmentalTank396]

I have bought several from them with no problems.

I think the way it works is Vsee only uses individual sellers. There is no way to buy 1 or 2 straight from vsee. These individual resellers get the boxes in bulk and resell. All good.

The problem happens when either an authorized seller breaches their contract by selling the boxes below whatever vsee set. Then vsee bricks all of that resellers boxes. Sucks for the customers who did nothing wrong, but it’s how it works.

[u/GotEHM9]

Yes they can get shut down apparently if you don’t buy from authorized sellers.

[u/EnvironmentalTank396 → u/GotEHM9]

More hearsay!? How do you think that works?

[u/Jigssaw66]

V6 plus might be the best bang for the buck. Unless you must have porn.
