F3, M3 and F5 are all very similar with lots of support.

Stay away from X5 totally different with no support.

The inside of skybox F3 looks alot like the inside of the openbox X5.

There are no channel list avaiable to download via usb, the X5 channel format is different from all the other openbox/skybox recievers.
You will have to scan the sats yourself either auto, manual or blind scan

If you have a fixed dish pointing at Astra/Eurobird 28.2, then you just tick that one to scan.

[bom4tom]

Now please some information of the differences of the openbox X5 and skybox F5.

I ordered a skybox F5.
Got it yesterday. it feels and looks like a toy, very lite.
It works similar as a openbox/skybox S10.
I loaded my settings and favourites from the s10 to the F5, that works.

I don't see any improvements except for de new interface.
Setup is similar to the S10.
My S10 starts even quicker then the F5
