Today’s best Sky TV deals
If you want to check out all of the latest Sky TV deals and Sky packages you can go straight to the Sky website. But if you’re asking us, there are a couple of standout offers to pick right now – we have them in full below.
At the moment, Sky isn’t going big with discounts on standalone TV plans. For the biggest savings right now, you have to go all in with a Sky TV and broadband deal. So if you’re able to switch broadband provider then you’re in the box seat for the best deals.
The good news for everyone is that as a new customer, once you purchase a Sky TV package, the Sky Q 1TB box comes as part of the bundle. So you don’t need to worry about having to purchase the device separately.
And if you’re wondering what a Sky Q is and whether you need it or not, just keep reading as we explain this all below.
What is Sky Q and do I need a Sky Q box?
Sky Q is a subscription that allows you to seamlessly stream and record in 4K , across multiple screens (depending if you purchase a 1TB or a 2TB Sky Q box). To access Sky Q you need a Sky Q 1TB or a Sky QTB box. If you need more information make sure you check out our Sky Q review.
All basic Sky TV packages come with a Sky Q subscription but this doesn’t include HD – for an extra £5 per month you can get HD.
Now if you’re deciding if you should pick between a Sky Q 1TB or a Sky Q 2TB box all we can tell you is that the 2TB box costs start from £50 (one-off) but they do come with a few benefits. These include being able to record six shows at once instead of three, while watching a seventh, you’d also get the fancier Sky Q Touch remote control, an extra tablet allowance, and you’ll be able to enjoy select channels in Ultra HD.
And if you don’t want it to be all or nothing there are also options to buy a 1TB Sky Q box and a mini box. Whichever you decide to get, we recommend visiting the Sky website to check out all the Sky Q boxes options and pick the ideal one for you.
