Sky Q

from £15 + £22/month / stuff.tv/skyq

Essential for hardcore TV fans, Sky Q is the best way to watch both live and recorded shows. Plus, its multiroom skills are a joy to behold. With up to 2TB storage for recordings and downloads, the silver box can stockpile 350 hours of HD programming and acts as a mothership to any Mini boxes you have dotted around your home, with catch-up stuff being fired off in their direction. The process is slick, and even runs on its own Wi-fi mesh network so it won’t slow down anyone in the house who’s not into Mr Robot. Plus, only the Q box can handle 4K football and movies at the moment.
