DSTV STREAMA

A streaming box is a South African favourite and the Streama is a uniquely local solution. It’s one way to upskill a dumb TV but it’s also a handy way to contain your main streaming packages in a portable container that can set up shop anywhere there’s a WiFi connection. The option to add DStv’s (paid-for) services to the little black rectangle means taking your favourite entertainment to a holiday home is easier than it has ever been before.

ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK

Revisit Tarantino’s retro outing that sees Brad Pitt getting into a fight with Bruce Lee. Let the orange vinyl discs transport you back to a time before the Pointing Leonardo meme was everywhere. And, if we’re being fair, the two stylish LPs are packed with some impressive tunes, too.

HISENSE 65U8N

This ultra-bright 4K TV packs the power of 1600 Mini LED local dimming zones and Quantum Dot technology. Translated, that means incredibly vibrant images, with black levels that can genuinely rival OLED tellies. Impressive stuff. It also has a 144Hz refresh rate.
