New year, new chance to binge watch? If your resolution is to stream better shows, Sky might have the answer. The Sky Sale is delivering deals on TV and broadband packages, with prices which match the company’s Black Friday offers. This ‘lowest price’ promise is the route to new Sky Atlantic series like Amadeus, All Her Fault and The Death of Bunny Munroe (as well as Netflix, discovery+, and more). Plus, if you’re already under contract with another provider, Sky will credit you with up to £300 to encourage you to switch.

Beyond the streaming and broadband deals, there’s also an opportunity to save up to 25 per cent on Sky Glass. That’s up to £168 off a Sky Glass Air and up to £300 off a Sky Glass Gen 2 (with three size options: 43″, 55″ and 65″). As these are contract offers, they are liable to change, and can work out more expensive than buying a set outright given that you’re taking out a subscription. If you’re looking for a new set without those commitments, check out our guides to the best TVs, including 43-inch, 55-inch and 65-inch options.
There’s also a limited time offer on a Sky Glass Air TV, Streaming and Broadband package, which could be more cost effective depending on your circumstances.

What is Sky Glass?

Sky Glass is a 4K smart, streaming TV. It doesn’t require a satellite dish or box, just a broadband connection. You have to buy a Sky Entertainment subscription when you buy Sky Glass. There are two models to choose from both requiring a Sky TV Streaming subscription which is £15pm (minimum).
The Sky Glass Air is the entry level set and starts from £4.25 a month in the Sky January sale. It has a 4K HDR Quantum Dot screen and Dolby Audio.
The Sky Glass Gen 2, also available with 25 per cent off in Sky’s sale, is the more advanced option. It has a built-in soundbar with Dolby Atmos (meaning seven speakers to the Glass Air’s two) and a brighter, more detailed display. It’s currently on sale from £519 (or £10.25 over 48 months).
Sky has provided a full rundown of the difference in specs between the Sky Glass Air and Sky Glass Gen 2.
