Product Information
Bring your existing TV into the Smart age, with the Freely and TiVo-equipped Manhattan Aero.
Bring Freely, and more, to your TV
Compact and unobtrusive, the Manhattan Aero set-top box transforms your TV’s versatility. Using only an Internet connection, it delivers live TV via the free-to-view service, Freely. More than this, with TiVo built-in, you also get access to a content-first Smart TV platform that lets you access all your favourite streaming services, such as Netflix, Disney, Prime Video, YouTube and more. With 4K and HDR support, it displays compatible streaming services in all their vivid colour and detail.
Enjoy TV in any room – all you need is wi-fi
The innovative Freely TV system offers a free-to-view service with a blend of live TV channels and catch-up content. The service lets you view live content, such as the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 stations, as well as accessing the free catch-up TV apps. Freely also allows you to ‘pause’ live TV as well as restarting programmes on certain channels. With just a wi-fi or Ethernet Internet connection required, there’s no need for an aerial or satellite dish, making the service ideal for households across the country.
TiVo OS for Smart TV
Designed around the user, TiVo is an independent, content-first Smart TV platform that delivers the perfect mix of a wide range of content, with a simplified, user friendly experience. The home screen provides direct access to both live and streaming services, meaning that you don’t have to switch between menus and apps. It also offers recommendations based on previous viewing.
4K HDR for the best in picture quality
Free from the restraints of an aerial, the Aero supports 4K streaming from services such as the BBC iPlayer, Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video and YouTube. It also supports the picture-enhancing HDR10 and HDR10+ technologies. This means that you get to view your streaming video in vivid colour and sumptuous detail.
Voice search
For an easy way to search for programmes, the Aero features TiVo-powered voice search. Search by title, mood or even a movie quote and let the powerful algorithms get to work in finding precisely what you’re looking for – “here’s looking at you kid.”
Fast, smooth and responsive
Designed for smooth and seamless operation, the Aero has what it takes to keep up with your demands. Thanks to its quad-core processor and wi-fi 6 connectivity, apps launch quickly, streaming is glitch-free and switching is seamless.
Easy to set up
The Manhattan Aero is ideal for adding Smart TV to a ‘dumb’ set. All your existing TV needs is an HDMI socket. Connect to this (HDMI cable supplied), join the Aero to your wi-fi network and you’ll be ready to enjoy all the best live and catch-up TV in minutes.
Transform your TV viewing, while keeping your existing telly, with the Manhattan Aero.
