■ Eskom has taken a short sabbatical this year, but don’t be lulled into a false sense of security. Best to keep Skyworth’s portable effort handy, in case you need to make use of that sweet three-hour-long battery – though it sits closer to 2hr40m in our testing.

■ That doesn’t mean it’s only deserving of a call when Eskom comes a-knockin’. We had absolutely no trouble bolstering our current couch potato gaming set-up. Just imagine it; Rocket League on one screen, Breaking Bad on another. Finished that? Move onto another streaming service then – Google TV OS has them all.

■ Skyworth’s TV even proves itself to be a capable gamer. As long as your ambitions don’t involve going pro (or a framerate above 60Hz), it’ll settle down as the perfect place to squeeze in some Stardew Valley on the side.
