I had always been a bit hesitant to move to Comcast but a move to a new house at the edge of u-verse service range forced the switch.
So far I'm happy with the results:
59/12 Mbps actual internet speed
Much better HD picture quality
More VOD and streaming choices
Live streaming to PCs
VOD to PCs
Auto HD tuning
Modem with built in AC WiFi
Faster guide and channel changes
Apps are faster and don't feel clunky compared to U-verse
Pandora through the cable STB
Saving $80/month
Negatives so far:
There is little logic to guide order.
Not all channels will live stream to a PC, but a significant number do.
Modem and X1 lights are a bit bright.
Fewer HD channels but nothing that was a loss to me.
They accidentally hooked me up to an older HD STB. I can see that would have been a downgrade from U-verse but once I was on the X1 DVR all was good. It's comparable to the U-verse DVR, faster and a bit more refined looking.
