Key Features
The S8 Max carries every S8 generation upgrade plus full channel access, without paying for the Ultra’s extra storage or backlit remote. Here’s what each one actually does day to day.
Multi View & Picture in Picture (PiP), new for the S8 generation
Watch multiple things at once: keep your main content on screen while tracking another channel in a corner window (PiP), or split the screen to view channels in parallel. On S8 Max, PiP covers the full channel lineup, not just the PPV/ESPN tier on Pro and Plus.
It’s built for the way people actually watch TV now, flipping between a game and the news, or checking a second match without losing the one already on screen. Setup takes one click from the remote, no extra app or account needed. For anyone who wants zero restrictions on which channels can go into PiP, Max is the entry point into full channel Multi View.
Built in Recording, new for the S8 generation
Record whatever’s playing directly on the device, live TV, VOD, or any moment, and watch it back later with no external recording device needed. Recordings are saved locally on the box (plug in your USB), so there’s no separate DVR box, cloud subscription, or extra hardware to buy. It works the same way whether it’s a live game, a show that airs at an inconvenient time, or a one off event like a PPV fight. Once saved, recordings sit alongside the rest of the library and can be replayed anytime, not just within the usual 7 day playback window.
Upgraded Streaming System, new for the S8 generation
A rebuilt streaming engine for smoother, more stable playback: no lag, no buffering, no app kickouts on movies, shows, and live sports. Channel switching and app loading are noticeably snappier as a result. For anyone who’s dealt with a box freezing mid game or dropping out of an app during a big moment, this is the upgrade that fixes it at the source rather than papering over it.
New UI
The interface, menus, and icons all got a visual upgrade, and the whole box just feels easier to use as a result. It’s a cleaner, darker layout with clearer text and simpler icons, so nothing feels cluttered or hard to read from across the room.
NFL App
Max includes a dedicated NFL app on top of the general channel lineup, so game day content, scores, and coverage are one tap away instead of buried in a general sports channel. It’s a straightforward reason for football fans specifically to pick Max over Plus or Pro, where this app isn’t available.
7 Day Time Shift
Pause, rewind, and fast forward live TV, going back up to 7 days across the full channel lineup on Max. Missed the start of a show or want to catch a replay of a play from earlier in a game, just pause and scrub through the timeline like it’s on demand content. Combined with Built in Recording, it means almost nothing on live TV is missed.
Voice Command
Speak to open an app, switch channels, or search for a movie/show, completely hands free. It’s especially useful for older family members or anyone who just doesn’t want to deal with menus.
Parental Control
Restrict content and manage what kids can watch with password. Restrictions can be set at the channel level, so certain content stays off limits without locking down the whole app.
4K Playback
Sharp, detailed picture on a compatible HDR TV, with manual resolution control to match your internet speed.
Buyer insight: Max is the model to recommend the moment a customer says they watch sports beyond just PPV or ESPN. Full channel Multi View plus the NFL app covers that use case completely, and it does it for $10 more than Plus. The only things Max gives up compared to Ultra are storage headroom and the backlit remote, neither of which matters much to a customer whose main ask is “I want to watch more than one game at once.”

SuperBox S8 Series Comparison
Buyer insight: Max vs Plus is a $10 jump for unlimited Multi View channels and the NFL app, an easy upsell for anyone watching sports beyond PPV/ESPN. Max vs Ultra is the reverse trade: skip $50 and give up double the storage and the backlit remote, everything else is identical. For most sports focused buyers who don’t specifically need extra storage or a backlit remote, Max is the sweet spot.
