Sky is currently offering free upgrades to its 43” Sky Glass Air TVs, granting customers a year of free Ultra HD access. This special deal enhances the device’s image quality for selected Sky Entertainment, Sky Cinema, and Sky Sports channels. The promotion is set to conclude on July 30, providing a savings of £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 sleeker option compared to the Sky Glass Gen 2, starts at £6 per month. Despite its lower price point, the Glass Air features a 4K HDR Quantum Dot screen, Dolby Audio speaker system, hands-free voice control, personalized recommendations, and an easy plug-and-play setup. Available in Carbon Grey, Cotton White, or Sea Green, the device is designed to deliver Sky TV channels and streaming apps directly through a broadband connection.
To avail of the Sky Glass Air smart TV from £6 per month, customers must pair it with a Sky TV package. The monthly fee includes the TV itself and requires bundling with a Sky TV and Netflix package starting at £15 for the Essential TV bundle, totaling £21 for the Sky Glass device, over 100 TV channels, and access to Netflix and Discovery+. Opting for the Ultimate TV bundle at £22 provides more than 35 additional channels like Sky Documentaries and Sky Comedy.
For those preferring an outright purchase, Amazon is offering a 20% discount on the 43” Samsung Crystal UHD 4K Smart TV, priced at £239. Meanwhile, Virgin Media’s Summer of Sports sale features discounts of up to £336 on TV, Sky Sports, and fiber broadband packages, with significant savings on the Biggest Combo bundle.
Sky Glass has garnered positive reviews from users, praising its affordability and audio-visual experience. While it may not cater to hardcore gamers, it is deemed suitable for casual gamers and average TV viewers seeking quality at a reasonable price. Users have highlighted the easy assembly, account syncing, picture quality, and clear sound projection of the Sky Glass Air TV.
