Britons considering an upgrade for their smart TV can benefit from a special offer by Sky this week. Sky is currently providing complimentary Ultra HD access for a year to customers purchasing a 43” Sky Glass Air TV. This promotion enhances the visual experience of select Sky Entertainment, Sky Cinema, and Sky Sports channels, offering a sharper and more vibrant image. The offer is available for a limited time until July 30, allowing customers to save £72 compared to the standard price, as the usual cost for Sky’s UHD add-on is £6 per month.
The Sky Glass Air, introduced in June as a more affordable and slimmer version of the Sky Glass Gen 2, starts at £6 per month. Despite being budget-friendly, the Glass Air features a 4K HDR Quantum Dot screen, Dolby Audio speaker system, hands-free voice control, personalized recommendations, and easy setup. Available in Carbon Grey, Cotton White, or Sea Green, the device offers a range of features suitable for various preferences.
Customers can acquire the Sky Glass Air smart TV starting from £6 per month when combined with a Sky TV package. The £6 monthly fee covers the TV itself and requires pairing with a Sky TV and Netflix package, with options starting at the £15 Essential TV bundle. For those seeking additional channels, the £22 Ultimate TV bundle provides access to over 35 extra channels like Sky Documentaries and National Geographic. The Sky Glass Air comes with a 48-month deal alongside the 24-month TV and Netflix package.
For those looking for alternatives, Amazon offers a 20% discount on the 43” Samsung Crystal UHD 4K Smart TV, which is currently priced at £239, down from £299. Additionally, Virgin Media’s Summer of Sports sale features price reductions of up to £336 on TV, Sky Sports, and fiber broadband packages. Notably, the Biggest Combo bundle includes eight Sky Sports channels, over 200 regular channels, Sky Cinema, Netflix, and 516Mbps broadband.
While Sky Glass has garnered positive feedback from users on the Sky Community forum, some users highlight specific use cases. One user commended the TV for its affordability and good audio-visual experience, making it suitable for casual gamers. However, another user noted that hardcore gamers may prefer a different TV for optimal gaming experience.
Overall, the Sky Glass Air offers a compelling package with advanced features at an attractive price point, catering to a range of preferences and needs in the smart TV market.
