Do I need to buy a receiver with UltraHD support for Tricolor

The purchase of a receiver directly determines how the family will spend evenings in front of the TV. A receiver is a device that provides digital TV channels to a TV. It transmits a signal and displays it on the screen.

One of the biggest mistakes when choosing a receiver is a detailed but indiscriminate review of all available catalogs with devices. The buyer needs to decide what parameters the receiver must meet. An important factor is the budget. It is necessary to decide not only on the technical characteristics, but also on the price.

By systematizing the search in this way, the buyer will save time on finding the right receiver. If you cannot decide on a choice, then contact a consultant. This does not obligate you to purchase and sellers do not always try to sell goods that you do not need.

Consulting a specialist will narrow down your search and save time. And you will definitely be sure that you have bought a device suitable for your TV for searching and receiving digital channels.

How to choose a Tricolor TV receiver

Not everyone immediately understands what “technical specifications” means. And they are very important when purchasing. If you decide on them in advance, you can save time and budget. It’s worth figuring out exactly what functions you need.

Less important selection criteria are the color and appearance of the device. First of all, you should pay attention to the following parameters:

  • “Multiroom” - makes it possible to watch channels on two TVs simultaneously, and the broadcasts are independent of each other;
  • connecting an external flash drive to watch movies and TV series downloaded from the Internet;
  • correspondence between how the set-top box and the TV will be connected to each other;
  • Is it possible to connect the Internet/cable/Wi-Fi to the TV through the receiver;
  • television quality;
  • what channels will be shown, what channels the device can find.

You can view the list of available channels on the official website of Tricolor TV. But more important characteristics are the quality of the television and the way the set-top box is connected to the TV.

Do Tricolor subscribers need GS a230 or not?

The question of many subscribers after the appearance of this receiver model is whether or not to buy an “advanced” set-top box. After all, the number of channels in 4K format is not so large.

Those who like to watch broadcast content in high quality and want to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of a TV show are recommended to choose this set-top box. Especially if you have a suitable TV. The receiver will allow you to expand your options when watching important and favorite programs - interrupting, resuming the show, recording a movie you liked or a program that you couldn’t watch on time. And also the user can use the device for mirroring on multiple devices.

If the subscriber does not have a TV with UltraHD support that can reproduce images in high quality, purchasing a receiver will not bring joy and satisfaction.

New Tricolor TV receivers in 2021

Experts believe that when choosing a receiver you should not focus on the year of manufacture. The receiver market hasn't changed that much over the past few years, so the 2021 and 2021 models are still relevant in 2021. But it is worth taking into account those devices that were released in 2021.

The 2018-2019 models are not much different from those released in 2021. But if you are focused specifically on new products, then pay attention to the following models: GS B531M; GS B532M; GS B533M.

But, as a rule, models that are current in date are slightly more expensive than those that were released over the past 2-3 years. If you don’t want to overpay just for a new model, focus your attention on models from previous years.

As a rule, receivers from 2021 can be brought up to date in 2021 by updating the device software. Installing new software will help you get rid of the opportunity to waste time buying and choosing another receiver, and will also allow you to learn more about the new functions that Tricolor provides customers regularly.

Package cost

How much do Tricolor TV receivers cost?

It is impossible to name the exact price of the receiver. It depends on many factors. In our assortment you can choose a model that is ideal for you in terms of price and functionality. The total cost of the receiver depends on:

  • the functions that the model has and what opportunities it opens up for the viewer;
  • complete set - if the client is looking for only a receiver, then 2,500 rubles will be enough for him, but if an antenna, converter and cable are also needed, the price will increase sharply;
  • presence or absence of a smart card.

Buyer's attentiveness will help you save a lot when buying a receiver. The company regularly holds various promotions and introduces loyalty programs, under which the client can take advantage of a huge discount and save most of the budget.

In addition, you must carefully and carefully study the information on the provider’s official website. So you can connect digital television for a good price and buy a signal receiver to display high-quality TV channels.

We also want to warn you that you shouldn’t save crazy money when buying a device. Your choice determines which channels and in what quality you will watch. It’s better to overpay and purchase a receiver from a trusted manufacturer for double the price than to buy a device on the market or secondhand and lose it in a month.

Consultants will help you choose a receiver depending on your wishes and budget.

Where can I buy a Tricolor TV receiver

With the advent of the Internet, almost every retail chain has opened an online store through which the client can place a delivery or order with personal pickup. Tricolor TV is no exception.

The provider has an official online store from which the client can submit an application to purchase the device. It’s much easier to choose models on the website, since it contains all the available models. Technical specifications can be found in the product item description.

The second way to purchase is to purchase the receiver from official dealers. Such companies sell devices with the permission of Tricolor TV. When purchasing equipment from dealers, you can be sure that you are buying a quality device.

By purchasing a receiver from official representatives - on the website of the Tricolor TV provider or from a dealer - you get rid of the need to install the receiver yourself. Specially trained employees will come to your home or the location of the TV and register and set up the receiver.

The third option is to purchase from retail chain stores that sell equipment. In this case, you will register and install the device yourself.

Customers prefer to buy a Tricolor receiver on the official website with delivery and installation. This way you can save time and not have to worry about not being able to use the receiver correctly in the future.

Is it possible to buy a receiver from Tricolor on Avito

Avito is a popular platform offering to buy and purchase new or used goods, equipment, household appliances, things, and so on. Of course, you can buy a receiver on Avito. But we will name three reasons why you shouldn’t do this:

  1. There are scammers operating on Avito. There is a high probability that you will simply be deceived. On the Internet, situations often arise in which a buyer sends a certain amount to the seller for a purchased item, and the owner of the item suddenly disappears.
  2. There is no guarantee for repairs in case of breakdown. If you buy a receiver cheaply without warranty service, you risk investing twice as much money in repairing it.
  3. Identification number - every Tricolor TV receiver has one. Masters have access to the database of registered devices. If they see that the receiver is registered at a different address or to a different owner, they have every right to refuse the client connection.

Which receiver to buy - new or from Avito?

As mentioned above, you should not purchase a set-top box on sites like Avito. You are unlikely to have a warranty on the device, and you will not know exactly how long the receiver has been in use.

If you have the opportunity to buy a new receiver at a chain store, dealer or website, don't miss it. This way you will save much more than if you bought a cheap device, which will require repairs after a few minutes and will need it quite often.

Order a Tricolor receiver via the Internet without leaving home

Customers can order the set-top box online. There are two ways to do this - through the official Tricolor website; through the pages of official dealers of Tricolor equipment.

The ordering technique is the same, the client does not lose anything in price. Purchasing on two different resources is practically no different from each other. Much also depends on the website of the official dealer and the capabilities of the company.

How to buy a receiver is up to you. When purchasing equipment through an official dealer, do not be afraid of being deceived or that you will buy a low-quality product. Tricolor TV carefully ensures that their partners maintain their brand and checks each one.
