Part of the equation is how many people are thereFair play. We've got 2 mobiles, 1 laptop, a Surface, an iPad, PS3, PS4 and smart TV all connected on 37Mb/s and it's fine... but tbh, the only thing that ever seems to get hit by slowdown is the iPad ersevere:
I've been able to get the Sky Complete bundle (with Sports and Movies) / HD / Unlimited Fibre and talk evenings for £59 a month so not bad imo, especially as I'm paying nearly £90 now with Virgin!
Up front. Its not expensive at all monthly, if you already have sports etc. Was like £2 extra pm for me but £150 upfront. BUT cant even get it yet cause i dont want their internet.Whats expensive about this?
The monthly cost or the up front cost?
Is it available for non sky internet users yet?
Hardly....Physically smaller box, massive HDD, GUI, awesome remote with touch interface, 4K etc...It's all expensive for ultimately a new GUI.
I'm fairly confident they will, like they did with HD.I worry that if they do bring 4K content like movies and sport you'll then have to sign up to the requisite packages to actually watch them.
Did they replace the lnb on the dish?Ive had SKY Q installed today
Been messing around for a few hours now
Looks so much better that the old GUI, flows so much better for box sets and catch up TV, not 100% sure I like the pop up scroll box on the new system as the old seems a lot more easier to navigate to another channel without changing the channel.
Has worked seamlessly from my main box to the minibox in my man cave when pausing programs and carrying on on another device and my iPad has full access to everything which is great.
New remote I personally really like, will take some getting used to but will become second nature in no time really. They actually give you three new remotes - one touch, one non touch and the smaller one for the minibox.
All in all I'm quite happy Has cost me the setup Fee + £12PM extra
Yes buddy
New LMB so old sky boxes also won't work using my dish now.
Am I right in thinking this is now released for non Sky Broadband customers/
Thats a good tip. Usually tell them to f**k off. lol.Yup. We had it fitted when we moved house around a month ago. When looking initially at getting it we were gonna be £250 install and an extra £6 a month. However we spoke to the Sky guy with the wee stall in the Town Centre and we ended up being £60 for installation and £6 a month less. Worth talking to one of these guys if you are interested.
Sure enough as you said. The guy offered £60 upfront and £6 off the main package.I like the new UI though the main box has been a bit temperamental with freezing and needing switched off at the wall. Though since doing a software update at the start of the week its been ok (Touches wood).
The only negative is the inability to fast forward to a particular time in a recording.
Also didn't think we'd really need to be able to record 4 things at the same time but theres a few nights a week where we need it now.
Because of the discount I currently get.The guy that came to fit ours said that they were struggling to meet the demand for Q so short term I don't foresee a sizeable price drop.
How are you £28 more if your £6 a month less? We got a 12 month deal also.
I probably will too. This week.Not really, but i did it anyway.
