How do you get the new Samsung V+ Box at installation ?

Guys,

What determines whether you get the new Samsung V+ boxes ?

I took delivery of a new installation last week yet have only got the old ytpe V+ box.

My package is all the basics plus a V+ box - maybe only the greedy XL folks are getting them

Any ideas how this works as obvioulsy i'd prefer the newer model

Cheers

There is nothing that determines it. You will get whatever the engineer has to install

What's the difference is it just aesthetics ?

If it's lower power consumption i won't be impressed

Looking around forums it seems to come with its own set of bugs. I have no problem with my SA- so can see to reason to want to change at this stage.
