How to watch the 2018 World Cup | Articles | Gadgets, gifts and accessories

The main foot­ball event of the year is approach­ing, name­ly the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Some­one is going to the sta­di­um, some­one to the near­est bar, but for those who plan to close­ly fol­low the foot­ball events from the com­fort of their own homes, we have select­ed a few great devices that will show you the real game!

In the kitchen

At break­fast or while you are cook­ing, you still want to stay up to date! A kitchen TV should be small, have a good pic­ture, and of course, it’s best if you can hang it on the wall with ease. The Sam­sung UE22H5000AK LED TV com­bines all the qual­i­ties that make it a great choice for a kitchen or din­ing room. The screen diag­o­nal is 22 inch­es, so the device is very com­pact and will fit both on the kitchen counter and on the wall. At the same time, the screen is large enough so that you can eas­i­ly see every­thing that hap­pens in the sta­di­um. The Sam­sung TV sup­ports Full HD res­o­lu­tion (1920x1080) and the view­ing angle is 178° hor­i­zon­tal­ly and ver­ti­cal­ly.

The black plas­tic case looks very neat, and the kit includes a spe­cial stand that holds the TV and allows you to adjust its height.

Sam­sung has always been dis­tin­guished by its spe­cial image repro­duc­tion qual­i­ty, both in mon­i­tors and in TVs. This TV is no excep­tion, it has a wide gamut of col­ors and a sharp pic­ture, plus it uses the Mega DCR func­tion, aimed at dynam­ic con­trast. The TV has speak­ers that pro­vide clear sound thanks to Dol­by Pulse and Dol­by Dig­i­tal Pulse decoders. By con­nect­ing the device to a com­put­er or lap­top, you can also play Inter­net con­tent. The Sam­sung UE22H5000AK is a great, qual­i­ty choice at an afford­able price!

In the living room

What do we want from a liv­ing room TV? Of course, first of all, we need a large and rich screen. But do not exclude oth­er pos­si­bil­i­ties of the device, which is why the 55-inch Sony KD-55XE8599 TV will be a great option for your home. This TV will give you not just qual­i­ty, but true 4K Ultra HD res­o­lu­tion. Even if the orig­i­nal video for­mat is low­er, the proces­sor process­es each pix­el so that the image reach­es the desired qual­i­ty. You will be able to watch any pro­gram in an incred­i­ble for­mat.

With sup­port for the HDR range, the pic­ture on this TV is incred­i­bly real­is­tic.

Smart fea­tures on the Sony KD-55XE8599 are based on Android TV, so you can not only watch stan­dard chan­nels and con­nect cable or satel­lite TV, but also view con­tent from the Inter­net or use stream­ing appli­ca­tions. All the movies, TV series and videos you want to see will be avail­able on a huge screen. Sony also sup­ports stereo sound in high qual­i­ty.

The TV has a styl­ish case with the thinnest frames around the screen. It is thin and fits per­fect­ly into any inte­ri­or. Hang the Sony on the wall or put it on a cab­i­net, it looks every­where and you can watch the most impor­tant match­es in great qual­i­ty!

Outdoors

Even if you go to nature or to the coun­try, this is not a rea­son to for­get about your hob­by and miss inter­est­ing match­es. After all, you can take the Huawei Medi­a­pad M3 Lite 10 tablet with you. The very name of this device already indi­cates that the tablet is designed specif­i­cal­ly for play­ing media. This means that you can expect high-qual­i­ty images and excel­lent sound from it. And in this Huawei does not dis­ap­point. The dis­play diag­o­nal is 10.1 inch­es, and the res­o­lu­tion is 1920x1200. The device is pow­ered by a Qual­comm Snap­drag­on 435 proces­sor and has 3GB of RAM. That’s not all, because in addi­tion to 32GB of inter­nal mem­o­ry, you can use a microSD, microS­D­HC or microS­DXC card to expand the device’s mem­o­ry.

If you don’t want to share the fun of the match with any­one, you can plug in your head­phones, since the tablet has a ded­i­cat­ed jack. Thanks to the nanoSIM card slot, you can use both 3G and LTE and use the Inter­net to watch match­es online through a brows­er or appli­ca­tion.

The tablet runs on the Android oper­at­ing sys­tem, so on Google Play you can find all the nec­es­sary appli­ca­tions for a suc­cess­ful view­ing of events.

Huawei Medi­a­pad M3 Lite 10, of course, is equipped with a front and rear cam­era, both of which have a res­o­lu­tion of 8MP. The bat­tery capac­i­ty is 6500mAh, and the met­al body pro­vides dura­bil­i­ty to the tablet.

With friends

If even the biggest TV is not enough for you as a foot­ball fan, then there is still a way out, and not just a way out, but a home pro­jec­tor. The Acer P1623 DLP is the ide­al choice for your home, as it will not only give you the oppor­tu­ni­ty to watch foot­ball broad­casts in the atmos­phere of a real cin­e­ma, but also allow you to arrange home movie nights. And what could be more enjoy­able than get­ting togeth­er with friends and fam­i­ly and watch­ing your favorite movies? Thanks to Acer Col­or Tech­nol­o­gy, this pro­jec­tor dis­plays all col­ors and images vivid­ly and with high con­trast. You can even watch videos in 3D because the pro­jec­tor is equipped with DLP 3D Ready. The pow­er con­sump­tion of the device is reduced as it con­sumes up to 90% less pow­er in stand­by mode. The pro­jec­tor is pro­tect­ed from dust thanks to Acer Dust Shield tech­nol­o­gy, which means that it will last you longer than many oth­er devices. The max­i­mum image res­o­lu­tion is 1920x1200, in addi­tion, the pro­jec­tor sup­ports for­mats from 480i. The Acer P1623 DLP has a 220W lamp.

The com­pact body of the device has HDMI and VGA out­puts and sev­er­al USB ports, so you can con­nect it to your TV, com­put­er or lap­top. And of course, you will get an unfor­get­table expe­ri­ence of watch­ing match­es!

On the run

Even if you plan to catch a snip­pet of a match or stand­ings on the go, in between busi­ness or work, it’s best to do it on a large smart­phone dis­play. And it is Xiao­mi Mi Max 2 that has one of the largest screens. This smart­phone com­bines a lot of excel­lent qual­i­ties: it is much cheap­er than its coun­ter­parts, has an excel­lent image and pow­er that will allow you to enjoy any appli­ca­tion. Mi Max 2 is pow­ered by a Qual­comm Snap­drag­on 625 proces­sor, equipped with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of inter­nal mem­o­ry. This alone is enough to make it your con­stant com­pan­ion, but that’s not all the device has to offer. The screen diag­o­nal is 6.44 inch­es and the screen res­o­lu­tion is 1920x1080. The front cam­era has a res­o­lu­tion of 5 megapix­els, and the main one is 12 megapix­els. Thanks to the fast charg­ing func­tion, you will always be able to fill up the sen­sor bat­tery, which, in turn, has a capac­i­ty of 5300mAh. This is more than enough to enjoy foot­ball wher­ev­er you are. This smart­phone mod­el from last year weighs only 211g, but is a very pow­er­ful and styl­ish device. The spec­tac­u­lar case has sev­er­al col­ors: gold­en, white and black. You can choose the one that suits you. In its price cat­e­go­ry, Xiao­mi Mi Max 2 is real­ly one of the best smart­phones.

So, if you have decid­ed how exact­ly you plan to fol­low the 2018 FIFA World Cup, we can only wish you vic­to­ries and good mood!
