The Tablo 4th Gen is a whole-home over-the-air DVR that connects to an indoor antenna and streams live and recorded broadcast TV to TVs and phones over Wi-Fi. Four tuners let you watch and record up to four channels at once, and 128GB of onboard storage holds roughly 50 hours of recordings, expandable to 8TB with an external USB drive. It also pulls in 125+ free streaming channels, so it works as a cord-cutting hub as well as a broadcast recorder. Reviewers like the no-subscription model and the four-tuner flexibility; the common complaints are that the free streaming channels are uneven in quality and that the app can feel slow on older hardware.
