Available from 12 February from just £14 per month Flexible ways to buy and Essential TV makes Sky Glass more affordable than ever
Plus, new Sky Glass Air coming later this year
Sky today unveiled the new Sky Glass TV, now featuring an even brighter 4K HDR screen and an enhanced seven-speaker Dolby Atmos sound system built in.
Sky Glass Gen 2 will be available to buy from 12 February, starting from just £14 per month at Sky.com, Sky's stores, Sky call centres and Currys.co.uk. Also on sale in Currys stores soon.
Sky Glass is the only TV that comes with Sky TV built in, with no dish or box needed to stream over Wi-Fi. It's built for an immersive entertainment experience by combining cutting-edge design, cinematic sound, 4k HDR picture and intelligent Sky OS software all in one device, with just one wire.
There are three sizes to choose from, 43 , 55 and 65 , as well as three updated colours, Volcanic Grey, Arctic Silver and Atlantic Blue.
A 4K advanced HDR TV
The brighter 4K Quantum Dot display delivers crystal clear picture, while new advanced HDR and precision contrast enhancement makes darks darker and brights brighter. It has a wider viewing angle and an even more immersive picture with a brighter, more accurate display.
With a tailored viewing experience based on what's on screen, viewers can enjoy content as the creator intended. Sky Glass knows what's on and will automatically optimise the picture and sound accordingly. On the new Sky Glass TV, all the picture modes have been refreshed, to be even better at bringing out the best in every moment, whether it's Entertainment, Movies, Music, Auto, Vivid, Extra Vivid and Sport.
Re-engineered sound. Built in
Sky Glass Gen 2 has been re-engineered to project even richer 360 cinematic sound. The enhanced Dolby Atmos sound system now has seven speakers, including a soundbar and dual subwoofer built-in, and has been designed to deliver a richer bass with improved vocal clarity.
From helicopters flying overhead to, a stadium filled with applause, viewers can experience it all from the comfort of their sofa.
With no need to buy a separate soundbar, customers can save at least 30% vs. buying a comparable UHD TV and soundbar*.
Commenting on the launch, Fraser Stirling, Global Chief Product Officer for Comcast and Sky said: We built Sky Glass as a brilliantly simple way for people to watch TV, making it easier to find the things they love from Sky and streaming apps. The new Sky Glass Gen 2 gives people our best TV experience yet, with a brighter picture and even more cinematic sound, and with flexible ways to buy it, its more affordable than ever to get Sky TV.
Design that feels right at home
Three new colours - Volcanic Grey, Arctic Silver, and Atlantic Blue - have been chosen to complement modern interiors. The remotes are colour matched to the TV and now the speaker fascia is too.
Whether choosing the 43 , 55 or 65 , everything needed to set up Sky Glass is in one box. Simply take it out, place it on the stand, connect to Wi-Fi and enjoy TV from Sky, Netflix and streaming apps in minutes. The new stand is designed to be easier than ever, with two prongs that the TV slides onto, no screws or tools needed. Alternatively, people can choose to add the new bespoke wall mount, that tilts, swivels and sits completely flush against the wall. It is also compatible with universal TV mounts for anyone who already has their own.
Powered by Sky OS, the new name for Entertainment OS in the UK
Sky Glass Gen 2 runs on the Sky OS platform, the intelligent software that powers Sky's much-loved TV viewing. And it keeps getting smarter, with more than 500 new features and updates since it launched.
It does the hard work by bringing entertainment from Sky and other apps into one place, getting viewers to what they want to watch, faster. It's smart and learns what viewers like to watch, curating collections of the best entertainment based on viewing habits. With personal Playlists, viewers can save all their favourites from Sky and other apps in one place, ready to watch later. Playlist will save or record previous and future episodes, even if the series moves across different channels and streaming apps.
Powered by Comcast's global voice platform, Sky Glass has a far field microphone so it listens and responds when viewers say Hello Sky . Use it to find shows from Sky and other apps, search for actors or genres, as well as to turn Sky Glass on and off, change volume, fast forward, pause and add to Playlist.

They can also choose the length of TV subscription they want, with a 24-month TV subscription offering the best price, or a 31-day rolling contract for more flexibility.
