Sling Media Slingbox 500 Review

Enjoy on-the-go high-definition programming with this Sling Media SB500-100 Slingbox 500 that features wireless connectivity, so you can watch your favorite TV shows on a tablet, mobile phone and more.

Specifications:

1. Extend your living room TV experience in sparkling 1080p high definition.

2. Connects to your DVR, cable set-top box or satellite receiver via HDMI and component or composite sources.

3. New simple setup on your TV screen.

4. Built-in Wi-Fi.

5. Sleek, innovative design.

6. As well as the ability to stream photos and videos from Android phones and iPhones.

At close to $300, it's fairly expensive. Smartphone and tablet-viewing apps cost extra. It duplicates some of the features found on TV anywhere apps you may already be using. As always, streaming capabilities are only as good as your home bandwidth. While you'll pay a premium for its extra features, the Slingbox 500 is an excellent way to watch your TV or DVR video content anywhere.
