didn't work the first couple of times for me which meant I was stuck in this leap where I kind of had to reset the Box reconnect the remote re-putting the settings ▶ Sky Stream - Honest Review @ 4:40
they missed out on the source button which is really needed I think on Sky glass ▶ Sky Glass and Sky Stream - 1 Year Update / Review @ 2:11
the problem is other than what you can see here you can't move the screen you can't scroll the screen up and down so if you can't scroll the screen up and down how do you know what's playing so you know without the controller basically the TV is next to useless ▶ SKY GLASS REVIEW, The good bad and TERRIBLE @ 5:59

Value for Money (8)

£7 a month just to watch TV you can't record stuff you can't go back and Rewind easily you can't forward easily you can't pause easily everything's through streaming services so what are you getting for that money nothing ▶ SKY GLASS REVIEW: The Good Bad and Ugly @ 14:09
I would just say go and get a Amazon Fire stick and use that because that is basically what this service is you do not really get much different stuff other than live TV ▶ SKY GLASS REVIEW: The Good Bad and Ugly @ 13:47
you're paying about £27 a a month for that when you're in a contract and 28 if you want to be out of contract and that's just for the base watching TV ▶ SKY GLASS REVIEW: The Good Bad and Ugly @ 13:57
on top the TV we've got an extra 13 a month on top and if you want to be able to skip ads you have to pay £5 on top of that every month so your bill ends up coming to about 5560 a month which for this service is absurd it is basically a streaming box that has no unique features other than voice control on this it's under Sky name and that is the only reason why this service is as expensive as it is because it really is not worth it ▶ SKY GLASS REVIEW: The Good Bad and Ugly @ 14:24
I'm paying all the money for this service and literally I've just got a smart TV in a box and they already had a smart TV I was thinking I'm paying that money and what am I actually paying for here especially since there's no recording ▶ Sky Glass and Sky Stream - 1 Year Update / Review @ 0:40
