Since the launch of the Raspberry Pi, small Android based devices have been making inroads on the market for a small media stick, devices like these allows people to watch the likes of Netflix or browse the internet without sticking a PC underneath your TV and also negates the need to purchase a fully fledged Smart TV.
One such device is the new to CCL CNM Smart Dongle, which aims offer a simple and easy way to turn your TV into a Smart TV. Simply plugging the device into your PC and using the included mains adapter or a USB Micro Cable, you get access to a cache of applications including preinstalled Netflix, BBC iPlayer and Youtube apps - you even get some preinstalled games.
The CNM Smart Dongle comes with an Air Mouse and Keyboard which is easy to use and then navigate around the menus, but you can also navigate by the D-Pad on the controller side of the remote. On the reverse there is a qwerty keyboard which makes it a breeze for logging into your accounts.
Now unfortunately not every app will be available to install from the Play store but for the apps that are installed, you get a very nice looking interface and a lot of features.
