With YouView and Freeview Play being so similar, it really depends on the specific boxes and features you’re looking for. Some advantages for YouView:

I got my sister a retail Youview box last Christmas from Currys I went for the one with the 1tb that's a little dearer.With no compatible studio cameras, the half-time bit is done by the commentator up in the stands, which gives the game away that BT has yet to put resources in to the overall presentation. But when the actual live footage is so impressive, that hardly seems important. The bottom line is that UHD is here, and not before time. Those already signed up for BT broadband are advised to book an engineer in for an install as soon as possible. Related Articles:

The T4000 is the 4K box. The more recent ones have changed from a 1TB disk to a 500GB one so in that respect there is no difference BUT the T4000 is a far superior box in processing speed to the 2100 and the 2100 can not output at 4K resolution. You may or may not need 4K depending on what your TV is but I certainly wouldn't be replacing a T4000 with a T2100.Then there are boxes that come without the BT/TalkTalk branding, arriving directly from Humax and Huawei. The software is where the fun is. YouView’s interface is full of features, lovely to use and nice to look at too. For newcomers, YouView is a free service that uses the internet to bring Freeview and on-demand services under a single roof.
