Sky Q 1TB
Picture quality: HD, 4K, HDR
Sound: Dolby Atmos
UI: Sky Q
Sky's set-top box remains one of the best around, a full seven years after launching. You do still need a satellite dish, and a separate box for every room in which you want to watch. But if you can put up with these inconveniences, you'll be handsomely rewarded.
For
- Great content, plenty of 4K
- Impressive picture and sound
- Multi-room TV works well
Against
- Expensive
- Requires a dish
Sky Glass
Picture quality: HD, 4K, HDR
Sound: Dolby Atmos
UI: Entertainment OS
It's newer and flashier, and doesn't need a satellite dish, but while the TV looks and sounds decent, Sky Glass remains a niche product. Most people will be better served by Sky Q, or Sky Stream with a decent TV/soundbar set-up, if you want Sky without the dish.
For
- Sky without the dish
- Decent picture for the money
- Sounds better than most TVs
Against
- Weak motion-handling
- Washed-out bright images
- No true recording
