In case you’re looking to Santa Claus to fund a TV upgrade, these five sets were born to do the festive specials and Boxing Day footie justice in 4K
Toshiba 49U7763DB
£649 / stuff.tv/49U7763DB
Don’t fancy spending big on an OLED? This Toshiba is well worth a gawp at. It lacks HDR but otherwise delivers a big, detailed 4K picture for well under a grand. And there still aren’t that many tellies that can say the same.
Whether you’re watching Strictly in standard def or Spider-Man: Homecoming in Ultra HD, this set does an admirable job. Where similarly-priced models struggle with motion, the Toshiba does a silky job, neither juddering nor blurring our catch-up footage from Match of the Day. You’ll have to shell out considerably more to see a step up in image quality.
LG OLED55B7V
£1699 / stuff.tv/OLED55B7V
An OLED screen is basically the 4K holy grail, giving you the kind of colour accuracy and contrast that even recent HD TVs can’t hold a candle to. Trouble is, these screens have so far been eye-wateringly expensive to get hold of.

This is the best iPhone Apple has ever made.
Cygni: All Guns Blazing
Is this just a nostalgia trip, or does it genuinely offer something new to make it as memorable as the top-down shooters of yesteryear?
Scott Contessa Voltage eRide 910
This is an electric trail bike designed with women in mind – not that you’d know that just by looking at it, because thankfully Scott hasn’t adopted the insulting ‘shrink it and pink it’ approach that many brands take.
Squareless whisper
This budget smartwatch sequel from the Nothing sub-brand no longer looks like an Apple Watch wannabe... but can it improve on the original?
THE MUSICIAN
SENNHEISER HD 490 PRO
CAMBRIDGE AUDIO EVO ONE
Considering how much the Evo One costs, slicing and dicing your veggies on it probably isn't the smartest idea.
