Streaming Boxes

If you’ve got an old TV and are looking to get a new one because of the smart features - think again.

The smart part of a smart tv is pretty lacking - by and large.
They are usually underpowered and hence slow, clunky and prone to problems. 

The worst thing is they generally don’t receive much love in the update department. 

This means new streaming services may not make it to your TV.​

A better idea is to grab a streamer and connect it to one of your HDMI ports. This way you save a bunch of money and you get something that can generally be easily updated or even replaced at a minimal cost.

Bottom line: If your TV screen looks good and you’re happy with the quality, do the earth a favour and keep it away from landfill a bit longer.
