Britons looking to upgrade their smart TV can take advantage of a special offer from Sky this week. Sky is currently providing complimentary Ultra HD access for one year to customers purchasing a 43” Sky Glass Air TV.
This free enhancement will enhance the TV’s picture quality, making it sharper and more vibrant when watching select Sky Entertainment, Sky Cinema, and Sky Sports channels. The offer is available until July 30, so interested buyers need to act quickly.
By seizing this deal, customers can save £72 compared to the regular price, as Sky’s UHD add-on typically costs an additional £6 per month. The Sky Glass Air is part of Sky’s lineup of devices that do not require satellite dishes or Sky Q boxes. Instead, they deliver Sky TV channels and streaming apps directly through a broadband connection.
The Sky Glass Air, introduced in June as an affordable and slimmer version of the new Sky Glass Gen 2, starts at £6 per month. Despite its lower price, the Glass Air boasts a 4K HDR Quantum Dot screen, Dolby Audio speaker system, hands-free voice control, personalized recommendations, and a simple plug-and-play setup. It is available in Carbon Grey, Cotton White, or Sea Green colors.
Customers can purchase the Sky Glass Air smart TV starting from £6 per month when bundled with a Sky TV package. However, the £6 monthly fee covers the TV only and requires pairing with a Sky TV and Netflix package, which now starts at £15 for the Essential TV bundle, totaling £21 for the Sky Glass device, over 100 TV channels, and subscriptions to Netflix and Discovery+.
For those who prefer outright purchases, Amazon offers a 20% discount on the 43” Samsung Crystal UHD 4K Smart TV, priced at £239 instead of £299. Additionally, Virgin Media’s Summer of Sports sale features price reductions of up to £336 on TV, Sky Sports, and fiber broadband packages.
Although Sky Glass has garnered positive reviews from users, it may not cater to everyone’s needs. Users have praised its affordability and audio-visual experience but noted that it might not be ideal for hardcore gamers seeking a dedicated gaming TV setup.
Overall, the Sky Glass Air offers a compelling option for customers seeking a cost-effective smart TV with advanced features and solid performance.
