The cheapest tech available on Takealot

Takealot's wide range of hardware, software, electronics and gadgets includes a gaming console for R180, a touchscreen smartphone priced at R499, and a 17-inch TV for R795.

In this challenging economy, many of us should be tightening our belts instead of eyeing expensive cutting-edge tech.

We explored Takealot's more affordable offerings and found a number of interesting products that won't break the bank.
 
Umkhulu feature phone – R160
That's the "Burner" edition, apparently there's a slightly less cheap (R190) grandfather phone that you don't throw away:

Not a single item on that list is worth the money.

That Pentium PC won't even run chrome.
 
Those small LCD TV's are pretty cool for retro-gaming. Only thing about that R795 Itel TV is the front facing speakers are all fake.

Some other brands like the Omega 19" TV are also guilty of having fake front facing speakers.

A comparison of these Takealot items and prices with Wish would be interesting.
 
I bought one of the LCD screens (Ecco) for a security camera.
The Ecco ones are the best in my experience. Front facing speakers and pretty decent firmware too.

I have an LH15 model. I bought it over the LH17 because it's a true 4:3 aspect ratio. The LH17 is actually 5:4 displayed on a 4:3 panel.
