Comcast sent us XG2v2 boxes. Are these DVRs?

Our "pre-X1" equipment includes 3 DVRs, but when Comcast sent the new X1 equipment, they gave us only 2 XG2v2 boxes and a bunch of DTAs. There is no "record" button anywhere.  Is the XG2v2 a DVR?

CookieJones The Xfinity XG2v2 is not a DVR. It is a non-DVR companion box that works alongside a primary DVR unit. Our team is here for you and will be happy to investigate your account and provide the correct resolution for you. Please send us a DM with your full name and complete address.
