To sum up my video in one sentence: This SuperBox S1 Pro works well; surprisingly well in fact, but the legality of the apps required to view live TV and video on demand are questionably legal at best.
The hardware itself is nothing special and something that could be purchased for a much cheaper price on Amazon (geni.us/Apdd8 (Amazon) - affiliate link). The main thing that sets this apart is that it comes with the apps Blue TV and Blue VOD. The apps are NOT pre-installed (making the device itself not illegal) but to use live TV and video on demand you will need to install these apps. When I lived in China I saw many apps like these. The truth is, I was a bit surprised by how well they work but yeah.... probably not entirely legal.

I don't care if it legal or not. The way big cable tv companies rip us off I wonder if that is legal?
I mean technically you signed a contract so they can do whatever. Which is legal. You signed.
@@DanDan-os6hd I there’s a way getting cable tv without signing a contract.
@@princetigerbeatz9316 Yes, Spectrum does not require a contract but they raise your fees every year.
It is I have one cut the cable
I have a SB3 it is now 3years old I can't believe how the big company have been ripping us off for all these years I am 65years old and this is the best best and most valuable thing in my home to me.I LOVE MY SUPERBOX💥💥
Have had mine for over a year. No problems. Not paying 200$ a month for cable.
Same here. I bought mine through Ebay for $ 220.00 US and it even had a bundle with a mini wireless keyboard. Although it sometimes has a "down for maintenance" notice, it goes away soon. The picture quality is excellent and with a VPN no one will ever know you are using this service regardless of the gray area of legality.
Does it support netflix
Hey man is it still going good a year later?
@@carlweitz5169 its fully legal there sold at rent a center stores now
How do I program it so I get free pay per view?
@GoTechGeek is this like the HTV Hostin that’s used with TiVo boxes? Trying to see how I can do this myself vs paying the 18$ or so people are charging monthly. Thanks!!
Thank you Melvin I appreciate you and everything you have done. I had a problem with someone getting my package and wiped it or added malware I don't know . I got the box had to set it up and it never worked right and the cable company shut me down a few times . Melvin remoted in and tried to fix it but seen there was more to it no questions asked and said hey send me that back and I will wipe it and go thru it put all the things that should be there. I was so impressed I got the 3 yr plan that covers anything to the box it is the lest I could do. You are the MAN the TV Guy and when I did watch something when it worked it BLOW my mind thing that are in the theater that came out 2 day ago like magic Mikes last dance the best 4k video 5 stars. Miracle Box cut the cable
I have had a similar box "MAXX" and it has worked very well for me for about 2 years. It also does not seem legal, and I keep waiting for it to be shut down however I have saved way more than the price I paid at this time. One main issue is you need very good internet to make it run smooth so if your internet is slower than some it may lag.
is it still working? how many years int total have you used it?
With the World Cup coming up soon. I will need something like this. I want to watch every match.
After watching racing for a few hours, the picture & sound would go at double speed, then freeze up, then go double speed, then freeze up over and over again and again, several times per minute. I tried changing channels, shutting it off & starting over. Still does it ....... any thoughts..??
I have 4 month with this box and it have like 2 weeks freezing up and the saler dont want to exchange
Whats the name of the apps for live TV?? And video on demand??
What apps are you talking about to get VOD and live tv? Just 2 apps? A little confused
Give me your opinion on what's a good box to get that has Live TV and live sports I would appreciate it. I have the TTG HD 6K box but it booted on me now that doesn't work all that great, and I'm still waiting for them to send me enough, so do you have a suggestion on a good box to buy? Let me know please cause cable is high hebra really high
I want to see a networking specialist analyze one of these. I took a quick peek and it screams botnet. 1000's of connections being made to/from residential IPs. Probably IPs of individuals running boxes like these. I also have a theory than the main software used for watching TV jacks into the content delivery networks of local cable providers.
This is actually legal believe it or not it's sold in rent a center
Which one do you recommend and worth the money great quality. thank you
I heard streaming is not "illegal" downloading now that's different.
I have the TTG HD 6K box free TV sports. And everything, can you tell me a better box than that one I would like your opinion
I'm really just looking for local tv, I get zero reception with an antenna. That box does seem to have antennas on it, is that where the local station are pulled from, or is it actually digital?
It's for wifi
I have been using super box now for several years without any real issues. Some buffeting on live tv but in general great performance, especially for vod and movies. I cut the cable 6 years ago with other boxes but this 2024 newest version is great. On fact, i am currently residing in France after moving from LA and the newest superbox is working great, albeit with issues about the time difference with US sports and news.
Does the SuperBox come with a Paid Service app to purchase IPTV?
Can i just use my hotspot from my phone instead of my home Internet to use this?
I just bought the monster box and its working fine, I did not have expectations for the box but it surprised me how good it is.
Are you able to get all NFL games
NFL channels are on it. I think they pick them up from the local the channels. The video freezes up a lot.@@EW-jo9ko
I'm listening to continuously the question is are you going to keep that box and do you have other boxes like that and plus you know they have a whole lot of super boxes some are better supposed to be another
Does the live tv load a lot or does it work well love your channel just want to know?
The load times are pretty slow (depends on your internet connection). Occasionally there will be a channel that does not load (under maintenance) but that is very rare. Also sometimes the channel will freeze for a bit. I have found that both of these instances only happy with stations that are not super popular. The popular stations rarely have any issues.
can you watch HBO Showtime all thosE channels rigth now 2022
Can you add other apps right, like VPN to this box?
HELP 😭PLEASE what is the best box with no navigation for a 83year. Turn on tv press up or down for all station. Help😢
hey dear friend,would you like to try pou Tanggula TV box?
There is Pluto TV, Google TV, and Samsung(& others) has their line of programming (some of their channels are from Pluto).
Can the blue TV app APK not be installed on Android?
Can someone please help me , I bought a brand new box 6 months ago and iv been paying this guy by sending him money every 6 month months , I had no idea I was due to renew I don’t want to use this stranger I’m looking for a way to set it up
Is there a cheaper/better alternative?
Do they all run on kodi?
How does this compare to the UBOX ? I have the UBOX 7 and they have the UNBOX10 out now , which is faster than mine. Still works if you can get your way around some of the chinese languages . No guide on the UBOX , so its a crap shoot for live TV . Not many US sports channels either.
It is available in Philippines
I highly suggest that if you buy one of these that you isolate it from the rest of your home network, before you even plug it in.
How do I do that?
@@RyanM95 it means you firewall off the device from everything else.
Is this is android box why the tv live app apk you can find on any App Store
Thank you ...👊
do you need internet for it to work
I bought one and hooked it up to my TV but when I realized you can download subscription channels, I unplugged it. After I told my brother about it, he said, “Send it to me.”
can you help us do a view? how much?
What are the apps called
Does this work in the UK?
I've had mine since May, I've had 1 update since May it's now December that doesn't agree with what you said.
to be safe can a person use a VPN with it?
Kodi has live TV and it's completely free. The crew or Mad titan sports. Both have live TV
My live tv won’t play on Kodi anymore using US guide 😞
Kodi prob don’t work no more
@@TheOpinionSports wrong. It still works.
@@thersten is it smooth like this device and high definition?
do you need a vpn for this?
Why would it be illegal to watch live TV? Isn’t it the same concept as using a digital antenna? Or are you referring to live cable tv channels???
How much u want for it
I don’t believe the free life subscription, with the price of this box easily you can buy like 3 years of IPTV service and the specs are kind trashy. The big question will be if after 3 years the box will continue working for the IPTV. I remember the Rveal service saying the same thing and service dropped after 2 years, IPTV service was ApolloTv.
Do you need internet to use this?
Legal or not why are we paying to watch ad filled tv? Anyway can you or someone host and share the apps so others that don't have this brand of box could use it.
What about bt sport i live in the uk does it have it?
Can you get it for uk
What they’re doing is putting the ball in your court. So yes, the box itself is legal and it CAN do those things, but by not preloading the apps in there, they’re leaving it up to you whether or not you’re going to break the law.
Wrong mr. cable provider. It is all legal.
What apps is this person saying are illegal? Just bought it. Love i can watch all my mlb games and fights. Just wondering g what apps?
@@Abdytoques do you need to have internet service for it to work
As he mentions in the video, the Blue TV and Blue VOD (video on demand) apps. Did you install them yourself as part of the setup process? Or were they already installed on the box? @@Abdytoques
Can you get live pay per views??
For me, my super box kept freezing randomly for no reason.
This box is the shit just got mine a week ago. Showed it to my grandparents worked so good they thought it was illegal lmao. Buying them one so they can cut their cable bill off too tomorrow on payday. 🤘
@@victorcordero1458 Amazon i went and got 2 of them. Might have to get another one since I pretty much take one to my girls house to drink and watch the fights on the weekend and forget to bring it back lol
@@MiguelMartinez-el1ledoes UFC events show up live as well?
@@Jatt916 yup every ppv event shows up on the cable guide when you scroll to ppv events. And by every I mean EVERY. There was a pillow fight ppv that was on there awhile back I shit u not. Lmao
@Tru 319 yeah I been watching all them for almost a year now. Alex Peirera vs Izzy adesanya I think is this weekend...
Do you pay per month?
GO TECH GEEK, I like to know if I can use this box on more than one TV at the same time.
You cannot.
thanx👍.
E Z Box lite please comment?
I’ve had mine for three years, love it. I get all sports and PV.
Do it have sky sports and bt sport?
Kdads14
It has bt sports idk about sky sports tho
Do u pay for any subscription?
And, do u watch actual live tv as live?
Thanks
Do you get ppv events on here for free ?
Just got mine a week ago. There's ppv fights this week so that'll be the moment of truth becuz everything else on it has not disappointed. Works just like my cable does same channels plus way more had to cut my 250 dollar cable bill off real quick lol
How many TVs will connect to this box?
1 per box
Mine works great! If you go online, you will see that it says everywhere that it is not illegal to stream, it is illegal to download.
And then they say, but is it moral?! And they leave that up to you. Definitely a gray area but I’m thinking they would have shut it down by now as this has been running for quite a few years already.
I would definitely use this !!! But can’t afford. I have Dish and would love to cut the cord. But I’m going to have to cut the cord because I can’t afford that amount of money
It’s like buying your own cable box you get all the sports you get a 24/7 section and there’s no buffering like IPTV’s and you could connect it with an ethernet cable directly to your router.
All IPTV service buffer
Is this Wavemax ?
where you can buy it
Many websites. Amazon, ebay, etc. even Walmart.com has some.
Hi
Interested I sell them 250
@@GabrielPerez-xt2se how long do it last for 250
Do you have to connect this box to the internet in order to get live tv or is it stand alone for that?
When I turn mine on it puts a green tint on my screen.. anyone know how to get rid of it??
Unplug it and plug it back in.
I have seen videos about people getting arrested for selling the Amazon firstick that has been "jailbroke". the video was from Polk County, wherever that is, but some people were selling the jailbroken firesticks in a flea market. So, I guess the question is, "Modifying" any streaming device would be illegal?
No..Its what's DONE WITH IT!..if they selling "jailbroken".. Probably they tried the " fully loaded" route.. Yeah..that's illegal
Unless there's laws where you are that you DO NOT OWN the operating system....?
Lol Polk County is in Florida. Florida man strikes again
Lakeland fl
I have ‘Dish TV’ satellite. I watch Fox News , Football, history channel, westerns, can this device perform as well as Satellite Dish TV?
Same here but, also watch ESPN, SEC TV and local channels.
It’s like a computer, in itself it’s legal. But, once you download illegal content or access pirated content, that’s when it becomes illegal.
I was told that unless police were physically inside your home it's undectable so that's good enough for me!😀
I've had one of these for 8mo.,I couldn't be happier,I get brand new movies,everyday more are added,picture is great,if they canceled it tomorrow,I would feel I got my moneys worthBut I don't expect they will,their still selling them
Their coming out with an updated box in May thats going to be equal or better than these other boxes these folks are so crazy about. I have had mine well over a year its the best deal I have had in a long time :)
@@garyhaley3072 mine worked for 2 years since purchased. It just stopped working 😞
@@arturito1206 cost too much money anyway.
Are the apps Free?
There will be an updated version out in May with great specs. I have had mine well over a year its great.
A Superbox with better specs would be great. I have loved being able to watch college football with this.
@@GoTechGeek I see SB2 is out now, with a guide and a sort of DVR.
Mine stopped working after 2 years
@@GoTechGeek the apps are illegal. This is just piracy 101. The producers are the one doing the bad crime stuff and the consumers are perfectly fine. Hence, users are not breaking any national law.
@@GoTechGeek NVIDIA SHIELD TV Pro best streaming device hands down.
Is credit card companies charging you 18% plus on cards legal?
The live channels on the Superbox S2 Pro stopped working on my two boxes on 3/6/2021. Day two of the problem and all the tech supports have said is, "be patient".
That's how it starts, then it's stops working after 2 years since purchased. Then you go buy again
i have had that happen twice in 6 mos, kinda annoying but it fixed it self within a couple hours, but hey you dont pay anything for all the channels known to mankind.
Mine hasn't had any problems.
any update a year later?
8@@dc5duben96
Can I get all sports channels on this?
Yes.All pay per views all movies all HBO,cinemax showtime everything I have had my 2 for six years never had a problem sometimes they do maintenance on channels
They have been operating for 6 years
It’s like The Black Box from back in the day
YES!!
Is this like DRAGONBOX from years ago???
Dude this box is awesome i watch everything nba, nfl, ufc, red zone, just released movies all for free 😂 I can less if it’s legal or not. I have saved so much money just in live ppv events alone !
Everyone is streaming now it’s cheaper tv used to be free and now we have to pay for it not fair
is this another Kodi TV ??? illegal
What are those 2 apps again?
Smart TVs come with free channels these days. While the channels are from the mainstream vendors, they are often cut down to a few programs. For example, you might get CNN, but it's the "airport version" not the consumer version. Lots of foreign channels though if that's your thing. Sony TV has hundreds of channels, but I really only watch a few of them.
do they have hbo
yes
Does this box have Asian channel?
Who cares if it legal and who worries about it. How much is it and where do i get it
good question if its legal
All bets are that those apps were blocked years ago, and maybe the marketers were sued for copyright infringement. If not, and their use could be traced to the individual user, said user could indeed be sued. Not worth it.
If u are in the United States it’s legal to stream but u can not download
Not true! Don't tell that lie!
@@Tle-yp6ww it was legal 9 months ago but the USA laws change I posted a comment when it was legal before the cOVID-19 bill passed
@@Tle-yp6ww Actually it is true, the Covid bill only applies to steaming with the box commercially and doesn't affect privately streaming. You just can't download.
Can I watch Bravo channel and TLC ???
Dont need. vpn ?? At all
Why u dont need a vpn
Do you have to have
Data usage thru your phone will be capped out fast
Kan je ook Netflix op kijken met die illegaal kastje
My SuperBox says unknown error 204 and will not play
Download whats app from you're play store. They will walk you thru it
I don't know if I'd be comfortable using that software hmmmm
@@billycorgan64 what software
WhatsApp is an app
Once enough people get a "box", the cable companies will disable them on their internet feed and that will be that. Then we get to pay the re-connect fee.
Its a box that has a lot 0n it but it frizzes up a lot
I have this android box sinds 2015 ,till now with no problems steel going strong,just hope that de company stay alive thats all,if it legall or not ,have no idea?but its working sofar very good.
They only last 2 years you must have brought 3
Yes they are illegal but its not a big deal they are not perfect because its illegal your internet provide can slow u down unless it has a vpn or u have a vpn
