Sky Glass Air vs Sky Glass Gen 2
We reviewed the Sky Glass Gen 2 earlier this year and obtained 4 stars of 5, thanks to its improved brightness, more effective local attenuation and the addition of the characteristics of the games about its predecessor, the Sky Glass Gen 1.
However, Sky Glass air seems to offer a cheaper alternative with a competitive level of characteristics compared to its superior brother.
Both televisions use a QLED panel and admit HDR10. For the games, both sets are executed at 4K, 60Hz and admit the auto latency mode (Allm) and, of course, both sets execute Sky OS as their Smart TV platform.
But, the Sky Glass Gen 2 offers Dolby Vision HDR support, used by some of the best televisions, such as the LG C4 for a more dynamic image, as well as a speakers of 3.1.2 channels that admits Dolby Atmos, with an external sound bar that houses the three front speakers.
The Sky Glass air, on the other hand, only offers HDR10, does not have the same local attenuation in the panel for a strong contrast, and comes with a incorporated 2.0 speakers system that means that it will not have the same powerful sound. It is also compatible with Dolby Audio, but not atmos.
Sky Glass Air: Better hit your money?
The key to see here is the price difference. If we take, say, the cheapest payment option of 48 months with the 55 -inch model with essential Sky TV included, is looking to pay £ 25 per month for the Sky vs. 34 glass air per month for the Sky Glass gen 2. That is a difference of £ 108 per year; It is not an insignificant amount!
Pay in advance by televisions and the price difference becomes even greater. For the largest 65 -inch model, the Sky Glass air costs £ 649 compared to £ 1,199 for the 65 -inch Sky Glass Glass Glass: A large gap of £ 550!
Although Sky glass air can sacrifice some characteristics, it has the potential to be a better value than its superior brother if it is not obsessed with absolutely first level image. The air can miss the best incorporated sound system, but with £ 550 saved, you could get one of the best sound bars and have many changes.
