Just Got SkyQ Installed and just doing a walk through of some of the features and comparing it to the old Sky+HD is Sky Q better • Sky Q Fluid Viewing on...
How would you set up surround sound speakers or even wireless headphones on this box.... I suppose you could go bluetooth on the headphones...but speakers get more difficult and expensive.?
Hello, I would like to know if you also have sky broadband with sky q since I’m planning to have Sky q and broadband with it but I want to know if it’s worth it. If you have a different broadband, what is it?
Patrick Dela Rosa Hi, I had Sky Q and Sky broadband. Their broadband is good if you're not using a lot of devices. But when you have 2-3 devices going at the same time then it's very slow. I had to to get 2 Wi-Fi signal boosters from Sky to help.
12 tuners Always had. At the time of recording this sky didn’t release the update 7 tuners for the record 6 and watch a 7th live 2 tuners for two mini box’s 2 tuners for sky Q apps and 1 UHD tuner
I understand there’s no dedicated 4K channel on Sky and everything has to be downloaded or streamed. How long would it take to download a 2 hour 4K movie? I ask this because my internet speed isn’t the best..
No reminder. everything has to be recorded. after you have recorded your favourite programme you have to delete, if you want of course. Rather than just having a reminder that your programme is about to start. this feature should be added to sky Q.
I had it installed today after an 11 week wait for installation!! I have wanted it for years!! i was very happy with it until i tried to bookmark!!! I thought i must have been doing something wrong!! Why the fu?? would they remove such an essential feature?!!!! i had concerts on my HD box with 20 bookmarks! i could go to the song i want within 2 seconds!! Now it's the same as having a VCR!!!This is completely backward!!! I don't know if i can live with this!! it's a mindblowingly dumb decision to remove it!! i'm fairly certain every sky box has had the ability!!! imagine if DVDs or CDs had no bookmarks!!this is essentially what sky have done !!
Just let you know People are big problems with sky Q box over heating picture freeze wifi problems as well sky q mini box having problems with wifi boxes restart broadband box all the time to watch tv on sky Q mini boxes watching tv problem picture freeze stop start stop start all the time
But not everyone is on the £40 friends and family deal..although its easy enough to get a code. Most people pay the full amount or close to it and thats overpriced.
I'm not on any friends and family deal, I just asked for a discount and they said yes, Most people are to scared to ask for one. But even at the full price i don't think's it's overpriced, I guess if you only watch it once a month then it's overprice, But if you watch it daily then it's pretty good value.

Your need 28mbps per second minimum for 4K.
My download speed is nothing like that! Would it still be able to download 4K? Even though it would take hours?

know the truth also when you delete it you also have to go in to it and permanently delete it

+Shaun O'Brien I noticed the box getting warm but my network is wired so I don't have Wifi Drop outs and I haven't notice any freezing
He seems to be very confused about what he is doing, and what he has got. He should have gone through it first before uploading this 🥴
It's not great, stick with sky+ as its easier to use with remote control, plus it affects your broadband by slowing it down
Overpriced..software issues..avoid at all cost.
I would have to agree but I had to have it. I'm a sucker for Sky.
It's only overpriced if you don't ask for a discount, I pay £40 a month for everything, When it should cost me something like £75

If they are willing to give it to customers
for around half price then this proves it is overpriced to start with. Thats proving my point.
