Sky will sell the television as normal, for set prices: the 43-inch version will cost £649, all the way up to £1,048 for the 65-inch version.
But it will also sell the TV like a phone, through monthly payments, which start at £13 for the 43-inch version. Sky will also offer a “swap” feature, like it does for phones, where customers can exchange their TV when a new version of the Glass comes out.
Customers will also be able to buy a small puck that can hook up to other screens in the house, so they can stream the same Sky content to normal TVs. You can register your interest now ahead of the launch date.
Sky Glass looks a little different from most TVs: it is considerably chunkier, comes in five different colours including a strong green and pink, and the option to swap the grille on front of the speaker for special designs. It said that it had been designed to look as much like a piece of furniture as technology, including the lack of logo on the front.
The TV also has Dolby sound built in, which the company says is good enough that customers won’t have to go buy a separate speaker system. It includes full Dolby Atmos support for 360-degree surround sound, for instance.

I find sky sports watching sports like football and cricket has lag, i have white now tv box and roku stick both the same, do i need a wired box to stop this?
I have the top broadband etc so speed is not an issue.
Hi Bobbyduke,
You should not need a wired connection for the lagging, we can advise to try a troubleshooting step to help improve the lagging, take your nowtv remote press
HOME 5X
REWIND 3X
FAST FORWARD 2x
simultaneously..
you will see a secret screen with speeds of the broadband network
we usually always suggest 2.5mbs but you can try each of these and see which one works the best for you
hope this helps

That is why Sky is set to offer Q via dish for many years to cater for those families.
WHAT else is different with Q? Sky Q has a hard drive built in so it can record and download shows to watch later. Many like keeping their favourite shows or movies, which they can’t do on Glass. In future Sky might add that to Glass. Also, Sky Q is not getting the swish new interface just yet.
TELL me more about the cost. Glass comes in three sizes — 43 inch for £649, 55 inch for £849, and 65 inch for £1,049. All come with the same features. Sky says this is a saving of 30 per cent on a similar TV and soundbar.
WHAT if I don’t want to splash out that much? Sky reckons most customers will pay for it monthly along with a TV package in the same way they pay for a phone handset and mobile contract.
The 43-inch TV is £13 a month, 55-inch £17 a month and the 65-inch £21 a month along with a Sky package. The per-month TV prices are for four-year contracts.
That is on top of a Sky TV package, starting from £26 a month for the Ultimate — meaning a TV and Sky costs from £39 a month.
Pucks to stream content to other TVs are £50 plus £10 per month subscription.
WHAT else can Glass do? A camera and motion sensor due to launch in the spring will enable you to use the TV for video calls, video games, fitness workouts and also watching shows or sports with others.
Zoom video calls will be available, with the camera following people if they move around the room.
Watch Together syncs TV content with other households so they can watch along together. Boxes down the side of the TV programme show other’s reactions, Gogglebox-style, as, say, a goal is scored or a film reaches a key moment.
The motion sensors allows for Nintendo Wii-style games and tracking fitness routines to make sure exercises are performed correctly.
