Over the last 20 years, televisions have undergone a drastic transformation. No longer are we subject to giant cube-shaped boxes that need the ariel to be facing a certain angle, or else we won’t get to watch one of the 10 channels available. Today, we have access to flatscreen televisions with incredible 4k picture quality, but is that enough? Technology is all about accessorising in the modern world. In this article, we are going to look at 5 of the best accessories for television that you can buy today to improve your viewing pleasure. The best part is that all of these accessories are available in-store. So be sure to drop in and pick up one (or more) of these accessories before they are all gone!

At DID, we have a range of television wall mounts that cater to various budgets. The beauty of the wall mount is that it is highly convenient and will save you space in your kitchen/living room/bedroom and give your room a modern edge.

A good wall mount will allow for more ergonomic viewing and less neck strain, will make your living space look more aesthetically pleasing (and we are all about the ‘vibes’ in 2022, aren’t we?), and will improve safety in your home (most mounts can hold up to four times their weight). This is especially useful if you have young children running around the place. Don’t fret though; you can still keep your TV stand or frame for your DVD or Blu-ray player or your soundbar; the wall mount will simply add a modern edge. It is one of the most popular accessories for television that is out there.  

What is a Google Chromecast? We hear you asking! Well, a Chromecast is a modern digital media player designed by Google, and it is a perfect television accessory. Why? Because it allows you to control your television using your mobile phone! We are always using our mobiles, so owning a device that allows us to use our phones as a remote seems like a good idea. Simply connect your Chromecast to your television using a HDMI cable, and from there, stream content from your mobile directly to your television. Gone are the days when you only had three channels to pick from; with the Chromecast, an infinite collection of streaming services is at your fingertips.

Available in store for just €40, be sure to pick one up today and watch as your television experience transforms!

You have surely heard of the coveted NOWTV stick regardless of where you are! Whatever your preference, NOWTV have you covered; in-store, we have a range of NOW TV sticks available that cover areas like entertainment, sports, and cinema.

The stick itself is a useful accessory for all televisions because it allows you to stream all of your favourite shows, sports, or movies effortlessly. Also compatible with the stick are on-demand apps like Virgin Media Player and All 4, as well as YouTube and Vevo, so you can catch-up on unmissable television instantly too!

Installation is so easy, all you need is to plug your stick into your television, and away you go. Maybe you can even get a new wall mount in-store while you pick up a 2-month NOW TV package and enjoy unmissable television in a spacious and modern environment.

Are you looking to turn your little old television into a home cinema system? If you are, then the perfect first step is to get your hands on a soundbar. At DID, we have a large selection of soundbars and home cinema systems that range in price, (starting from €100 ), so you don’t need to fear that you might spend thousands on a high-quality sound system.

You may be wondering, ‘I already have a good set of speakers included with my television; why do I need a soundbar?’. Well, comparing television speakers to a soundbar is like comparing a push-cart to a Ferrari. The difference is night and day. Soundbars deliver crisp dialogue, a balanced sound, and incredible quality. Most soundbars that you will find in the store were custom-built by skilled sound engineers to ensure that you get the best sound possible. So if you love your movies and maybe have a NOW TV Cinema stick in your basket, consider pairing it with a soundbar and take your viewing experience to another level. Your television will thank you!

Wi-Fi Boosters

Most televisions/smart televisions have streaming services and applications attached to them now. As a result, they need a good Wi-Fi connection to provide these services. Unfortunately, Wi-Fi signals can get a little choppy depending on how far away from the modem we might be, so a booster is the perfect television accessory!

Wi-Fi boosters will increase the strength of your connection so that you can enjoy streaming your favourite shows or videos on your television with minimal fuss. They can range in price, but they are well worth the money considering their use case!
