Sky Glass Gen 2 has been revealed (Image: SKY)
It’s been , and now has finally revealed what’s coming next. The company has officially uncovered its new Glass (Gen 2) TV, which finally fixes one of the gripes many had with its original connected TV. That’s thanks to new Quantum Dot LED technology, which boosts the colour, contrast, and those all-important blacks. The first did face some criticism for not having a crystal clear image, but that seems to be sorted on this all-new model.
Along with boosting the image, Sky also claims the viewing angles have been upgraded – so wherever you sit in the room, you should get a perfect picture.
It’s not just about the viewing experience. Tucked under the screen is a refreshed soundbar with 360-degree Dolby Atmos, which should offer far more immersive audio. There are seven speakers in total, with Sky promising richer bass and clear vocals. It’s also compatible with Dolby Atmos content for even better sound.
Voice control is still included to provide easy access to content, recordings and controls. Playlists also get better with recordings stored in a more easily accessible space.
Simple setup is still a big feature of Sky Glass, with one cable powering the screen, in-built receiver and soundbar. Of course, like the original Glass, Gen 2 is powered by the internet so there’s no need for a dish.
An improved stand also comes as standard with homes not even needing a screwdriver to get things up and running.
It will ship in three colours: volcanic grey, Arctic silver, and blue.
You can buy it starting tomorrow in three sizes: 43-inch, 55-inch, and 65-inch. Prices start from £14 per month.
It’s worth noting that is just for the TV and not content which costs extra.
