October 14. 2022 - 4 min read

Whether it’s watching the soccer World Cup, AFL, NRL, NBA, cricket, golf, tennis, or any other sport, there’s always a big game happening somewhere in the world. For the ultimate sports fan, never missing a moment of the action is critical. That means you need the best TV, tablet and mobile technology so you can watch round the clock, from the comfort of your lounge room, while you’re at work, on your commute, and while the rest of the house is sleeping (we see you Premier League fans!).

Best TVs For Watching Sport In Your Lounge Room

This is your version of a home-ground advantage, so the best TV is a must. There’s nothing like watching incredible athletes doing their thing in 4K or 8K quality on a big screen – it’s like they’re kicking goals and dunking baskets in your living room. The Samsung 75" Q60D 4K QLED Smart TV vivid colours and crystal clear picture will bring the action to life, while the LG 75" UT8050 4K UHD LED Smart TV is famous for its true-to-life pictures.

“With TVs slimmer than ever, there’s less room for internal audio, so pairing your TV with a soundbar will enhance your viewing experience by bringing outstanding audio quality to your lounge room,” says Christos Boukogiannis, The Good Guys Buyer – Sound.

How To Watch Sport At Work

A dual screen set-up is the way to go! Your computer – and work stuff – on the left side of your desk, and sport playing on your tablet to the right. Try the Apple iPad 10.2” or Lenovo Tab M10 10.3” for the ultimate work/play set up. Then when you’re on lunch, pop your device on the lunch table so you and your colleagues can gather around and tune in.

If you’re a tradie or ‘on the go’ at work, then a quality radio, like the Panasonic Splashproof Digital FM Radio will keep you up to date with the play-by-play or latest scores.

How To Watch Sport Late Or Overnight

From setting your alarm to wake up in the middle of the night to watching without disturbing your sleeping family, partner or housemates, tuning in overnight can be tricky. But if you’ve got a reliable radio, like the Panasonic Dual Alarm Clock Radio and a laptop – cue the Acer Aspire 3 15.6” with its large screen – then you’re almost set. The Sony On Ear Headphones are the last piece of the puzzle to ensure you can hear all the commentary without making too much noise.

How To Watch Sport While In The Shower

Need to get ready for work or to go out while the game is on? You won’t miss a second if you set up the Amazon Echo with Alexa in your bathroom and ask it to tell you the latest scores or stream the play-by-play. The Apple HomePod mini can also stream audio from your iPhone, iPad or other Apple device via AirPlay.

“Smart speakers are a great way to stay up to date with sports scores and stream audio from the game, as well as get the latest news and weather, search the internet and even make phone calls,” says The Good Guys’ Christos Boukogiannis.
