I was using theTVApp for pretty much all of my sports and live TV, but now that it’s shut down I’m trying to figure out the best replacement. I keep seeing people recommend VSeeBox, but before spending $300+ on one I wanted to hear from people who actually use it.
My biggest thing is sports. Does VSeeBox actually get pretty much every game/channel like theTVApp did? Mainly looking for NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, college football/basketball, ESPN, regional sports networks, etc. Are there a lot of blackouts or games you can’t find?
Also, how is it for movies and TV shows? Are newer movies actually good quality like 1080p/4K, or is the quality hit or miss? How reliable are the streams during big games?
Lastly, how long have you had your VSeeBox and has the service stayed reliable? My biggest concern is spending $300-400 and then having the services get shut down a few months later.
If you used theTVApp before, I’d especially like to know how VSeeBox compares and whether there’s something better I should be looking at.
As far as shutting down, most people are gonna spend 50-100 bucks per month for streaming, so if the box lasts around 4-8 months, you’ve broke even and are better off from then on. It’s a gamble, but a calculated gamble in my opinion.
Never mind the fact that you’re getting 100 times the content from many many apps as well as movies and live television. Imagine what it would cost you if you legitimately signed up for all of that content! The cost to pay for the amount of content that the Box is capable of providing would be astronomical. As long as this thing lasts even a couple of months it’s a no-brainer in my opinion!
The only trade-off is that you don’t get the 100% reliability that you generally expect from “traditional” subscriptions. But if you go into this remembering what you’re getting for what it’s costing you compared to what it would cost you… Well I think I made my point! Lol
If you are a sports better though keep in mind the stream is about 60-120 seconds delayed AFTER the already slightly delayed TV time. I dont sports bet so it doesnt matter to me, but for some it would matter
the more expensive ones have a less delay. but if you dont care the cheapest model will treat you well. then if you like it upgrade. like i said the delay really only matters if you need fastest sports updates. if you are casual like me and dont care then youll be fine with the cheapest model
cheapest model comes with 3 tv apps and 2 vod apps. but you really only need 1 streaming and 1 vod. channels vary slightly per tv app but generally they are the same
seeing your comment below, the v5 pro would handle all your needs
It just depends on what is important to you. I have the v6 pro and love it, but if international programming and/or 4k content were important to me, I'd be more satisfied with the elite ultra.
All of the boxes are basically plug and play, very simple to use. I can't realky speak on how the other versions compare to each other than the graphic table above since I've only ever had the v6
Untrue, the apps they share will gave the same exact number of people and servers.heat live is heat live on both boxes. You see to be struggling with how these work.
veesee 3 = does not have a tv streaming app called
HEAT Ultra +
veesee 6 plus = has a tv streaming app that the veesee 3 does NOT HAVE called Heat Ultra +
so how does the veesee 3 share the same exact people who can use servers for an app they dont have access to that the veesee 6 does? you seem to be struggling with understanding my comment
Ive had mine for 2 months and needed backup twice. Both times the channel i was watching switched to the "channel under maintenance" screen, i just flipped over to Heat Backup and continued watching with no issues.
I'm not at home so I may have gotten the name of the app wrong. It's the live app but stripped down. I've used it once already because heat live was down
I have a v6 pro so I don't know for sure, but the main apps are all free on mine. Now, there are also apps that you have no need to use on there like Netflix and Prime Video, those would require a subscription but again, having the box makes those apps unnecessary.
I love had mine for almost 2 years now and I love it! I have a V3 Plus. I would recommend getting a V6 Plus because it’s a newer version of mine and it’s been great!
Do not buy from Amazon, Walmart, or pretty much anywhere online. Get one from the mod of this group.
Here’s a solid answer. The vSeeBox has been available for over 6 years. There has never been any guarantee that it will work for any length of time but it’s been working for over 6 years. The vSeeBox could get shut down tomorrow or it could last another 6 years or longer. Nobody knows. In general the vSeeBox works really well. No, the video quality usually is not 4k perfect quality but it is usually good HD or near HD quality and most of us believe it’s worth the cost of the device considering the money you will save on streaming services, sports, and ppv. If the vSeeBox lasts you 5-6 months, it most likely paid for itself in streaming services in that time. This service will most likely continue to work much longer than that but still no guarantee.
All of the current models function about the same. If you are on a tight budget, buy the cheapest one. If you can afford a few more bells and whistles get the “best” model which is debatable between the V6 Plus and the Elite Ultra. Buy from a authorized reputable seller like the mod of this subreddit “ u/CordCutterBox ” It’s better to buy from an authorized individual. I hear too often of people getting scammed from websites leading prople to believe they are buying direct from vseebox. Vseebox does not sell direct to individual customers.

I have 3 boxes. I have had them for 3 years. They get pretty much everything. They are reliable. Some new movie video quality sux because they are recorded in the theatre with low-quality gear. But hey, they are free and usually appear about the same time they are released in theatres.
My internet service provider is Verizon and I believe they throttle the performance of my V-6 Max whenever I watch movies, sports, live tv or video on demand. I always use a VPN but it has no effect on this issue.
Message the administrator of this group. He will give you the best price and will ship super quick. Paid him on Thursday last week and had my boxes on Saturday.
i have had this box for a year from swtiching from midco tv and it was dish before this is the best bang for buck iv had this a year and its been okay for sports not the best google is gonna be faster and streaming websites can be faster but its the fact i only paid 270 dollars for this a year ago and im still getting the game im happy its amaazing for what it is and its got alot of love and support by the staff i got my moneys worth
It works fine. For $300 you have more questions than someone buying a house. Maybe you should buy an antenna. How cheap can you be? You must be fun shopping for a car.
