In connection with the upcoming complete abandonment of analogue television broadcasting in Ukraine on July 1, 2021, as well as the encoding of leading TV channels on satellite on the night of January 29, 2021, the demand for T2 digital tuners has increased significantly among Ukrainian TV viewers.
One of the best offers on the market today is the T2 digital receiver with the functions of the T62A LAN media player produced by World Vision.

True, access to the global network is supported by many devices, including other tuners in the World Vision T62 line.

Although it is also possible to use an adapter, simply insert the patch cord from your router or modem and World Vision T62A LAN will gain access to the Internet. Of course, the model cannot do without other advantages.

T62D
World Vision produced several modifications of the T62 model. In themselves, they are not much different except for the design and some of the available ports. For example, this model does not have an RCA connector for old TVs, instead it has a 3.5 micro jack for connecting additional audio systems and home theaters. The dimensions of the device have been reduced due to the removal of the power supply, now it is located on the power cable. Due to this, there are now several fewer function buttons on the front panel. In all other respects, the functionality is the same as the T62A model.
T62M
The simplest tuner in this model line. There is no electronic dial or mechanical control buttons on the front. Now all that remains is the company logo and a USB port. At the back, the second USB connector was removed and only the antenna port, RCA connection and HDMI remained for transmitting video images in high quality. Some of the buttons are now on the left side of the receiver: power, menu and channel switching buttons. Due to this, the dimensions have been reduced, and the set-top box is the smallest among these multimedia boxes.
T62M is the most compact
T63
The World Vision T63 has improved the software part of the tuner, created on the basis of the MXL608. This platform provides better reception and processing of digital broadcasts. The Ali3821p processor will speed up the operation of the tuner several times, which ensures comfortable everyday use. On the front cover there is an LED display that shows the quality of signal reception and the number of the active channel and USB. On the back there is a connector for connecting an RF IN, HDMI and RCA antenna for old-style TVs. In all other respects, the capabilities are the same as previous models from World Vision.
World Vision Premium
As the name suggests, this device belongs to the expensive category. The body is made of metal and the front has a stylish appearance. Unlike previous models, the Premium has 1 GB of RAM and the Ali M3821 processor significantly increases the performance of the device. Unlike other tuners from this manufacturer, this one supports cable TV reception using the DVB-C standard. In all other respects, the functionality and connectors are the same as previous versions of the receivers.

Reviews
Andrey, 44 years old, Stavropol. A high-quality receiver, I bought it for the TV, because analog TV was completely deplorable. Very high quality product. I’ve been using it for almost six months and bought a few more for my relatives - everyone is happy.
Kirill, 36 years old, Veliky Novgorod. I bought it after I found out about the T2, it works well and turns on quickly. Almost all videos can be read from the flash drive, which is very pleasing. The remote control is fully programmable and customizable for the user.
Elena, 32, Rostov-on-Don. Nice appearance. I first bought it for my grandmother, the first thing that pleased me was that the tuner is easy to set up and connect. It picks up all the main channels, in good quality and without interference, although I had to tug the antenna a little. I decided to buy myself the same one.
