Picture quality on my LG OLED TV's is brilliant I remember when Q came out there were lots and lots of issues but it did improve ( never perfect but pretty good). Stream will only get better

As a millennial with a gigabit fibre connection as well as Sky Q, I probably wouldn’t have an issue migrating over to Sky Stream. My parents, grandparents, and in-laws on the other hand; I can’t see them upgrading from their cheap basic copper to the house 30Mbps that suits their “internet” needs and their Sky dishes unless high speed internet prices dropped massively. The sell of “spend £30pm more to get exactly what you have now with faster internet for browsing Amazon and catching up on Radio 4” seems tough. Especially considering the issues with cost of living right now. Interestingly only this month I renegotiated my Sky contract get my price down as was coming out of contract. Their retentions department didn’t even mention Sky Stream or Glass. Generally in the past when Sky have a shiny new product (Q, Mobile, Ultrafast, etc) they’ve really pushed them on me at the retention stage. I feel that as Sky aren’t pushing it on customers and instead are offering big reductions on Sky Q contract renewals to stay with Sky Q, it tells you all you need to know how ready Sky think their Steam and Glass services are to replace dishes.

Had Sky Stream for 1 month now and love it. Sky sent my packaging the other day to return my Sky Q boxes. Best thing I ever did. As long as you have decent internet like I do then it should work properly for you. Having my Sky streaming puck hooked up to my LG OLED tv is a superb combo. It was thanks to your early reviews which persuaded me to upgrade from Sky Q. Absolutely no regrets.

Great video. I think there's still so much they need to iron out before streaming becomes the default Sky service. I still much prefer satellite because the latency is so small. If you are watching a football match on satellite, you'll see the goal 30-60 or so seconds before you do on Sky Stream or any IPTV service. They really need to try and reduce this delay as much as possible before they start thinking of ditching the dishes.

The picture quality was not as good as satellite. It was pixellating right when you said "look at that quality!" I have never understood why Netflix/etc don't open their own TV channels, so when you open Netflix something's already playing. I don't want to read write ups about what's what, I'd rather dive right in like you do when you flick through TV channels. That's what I want anyway... PS there is no way that on-screen menu is in 576. That would look like the old Ceefax. It's some type of HD

Hey Steve, great vid as usual couple of points.. Netflix - my understanding is when they detect you are using the account in London instead of Cornwall they will email you a code which you enter and confirm this is your device. Hardly a big disadvantage to those sharing with Family, Second on Sky Stream, I got a new LG C2 tv and the sound was shocking, muted and hollow. I tried all the various sound settings without any joy. I then plugged in my Apple TV 4k using the same cable and HDMI port, instant change, so not sure what was happening there.

Due to me working away from home a lot I thought it would be a good idea to look into sky stream, but when I contacted Sky they told me that I could not get it because the puck must not be moved from my address, of which I thought that was just useless and pointless. Sky are missing out on customers who would like to watch TV, but for obvious reasons can't have a portable satellite dish. I live at my 2 bed apartment during the week and then go home to my house at the weekends and not had this issue when I got my broadband from BT that allowed me to have two connections in different locations.

Loving the uploads on sky stream. We have had it for two months and its fantastic. We have 2 sky stream pucks at property connected to gigafast sky fibre and picture quality in living room and bedroom are fantastic. I was lucky when signing us up as got a deal initially on first puck as gave it us free and when I then upgraded to 2nd puck for bedroom soon after offered that to me free as well. It does now show in my sky app if any more are required they are £39.95 each but luckily dont need anymore. Also really enjoying the sky remote especially voice functions and back lighting on it as you mentioned in your video. In my opinion this is the best streaming device for watching tv and streaming apps as all on one easy to use service all via a tiny little puck. Great not having an ugly aerial or rusting sky dish attached to our property anymore as now redundant. This is definitely the future of watching tv and we have it now so great stuff sky.

I have SkyQ, but been looking into stream. Why you may ask? I couldn't tell you, perhaps it's because it's something new. The issue is internet connection. Let's say you have a whole house connected on multiple devices, phones, iPads, all using the connection at the same time. So it's best to have a 500mb connection, although you could technically get away with the 150 connection. I think if stream was much cheaper than Q, then I would seriously consider switching. But they are pretty much in line with eachother.

Another great video! Would you be able to answer a few questions; 1) Sky Q a lot of channels are stereo 2 channel, in Sky Stream are you able to up mix to 5.1 or it still outputs DD 2.0? For example if you catchup a program on Sky Q it will most often be downloaded in DD 2.0 even though it was broadcast in DD 5.1 surround (BBC do this for all content it seems) are Sky Stream playlist downloads DD 2.0 or 5.1?. 2) With Sky Q you can watch BBC content in the Sky Go app, however it appears that Sky Stream does not allow this (even when at home connected to the same network), do you know why or does it now work with Sky Stream?

Great vid. Could you do a video on Virgin Stream and compare it to Sky stream. I think you might have to have virgin broadband to get virgin stream though.

Moving to Sky Stream, has been the best move. The apps in particular like KZbin are so quickly to load. I guess the only minus would be if my broadband went down.

I just moved to Firestick HD from Sky Q and can already see an improvement in picture quality. I'm going to use Now TV to get Sky Sports and hopefully pick up a deal on the way. Only frustration is the EPG, Skys's is brilliant. How do you rate the new upgraded Sky Stream to Firestick HD?

Sky Stream good? The answer is yes and no! The good thing about Sky Stream 1. cheaper 2. No dish 3. Small IPTV Sky box Bad thing about Sky Stream 1. Can't add MUTV and LFCTV 2. Unicast (OTT) and not multicast causing high delay. 3. Too much delay on Sky Stream channels 4. If you lose internet connection, then you lose tv also 5. Can't record 6. Satellite dish gives higher bitrate and better picture quality
