Along with the electric toaster, the smartphone and the snorkel, the remote control is one of humanity’s finest inventions, saving us from long walks to the TV and letting us infuriate our kin by changing the channel at crucial moments in their favourite shows. The only thing better than have the remote control in your hand? Having a gold or silver remote control in your hand.
The limited edition DStv A7 remotes work with both the DStv Explora and DStv HD Decoders, and you can use them to control other AV gadgetry using SimpleSet. Backlit buttons mean you know what you’ve pressed even when you’ve got the lights dimmed to a mood-making mild roar. Plus, those backlights mean you get visual feedback every time you push a button. Mmm, feedback.
