Sky Glass Gen 2, the upgraded version of Sky's internet-based TV service, boasts enhanced screen technology, a refined audio system, and a simplified installation process. This review delves into the key improvements offered by the new generation, including brighter 4K UHD Quantum Dot displays, an expanded seven-speaker sound system, and a smoother user experience thanks to improved processors.

Glass gen 2 is the new version of the company's internet-based TV service, which does away with the traditional satellite dish and box, packing everything you need into the telly itself. The Sun got an early glimpse of the Sky Glass gen 2 before it was released to the public. The display sizes for Sky Glass gen 2 remain the same as last year, which are 43-inches, 55-inches and 65-inches.

But the quality of the screens appear to have been improved quite a bit, with new brighter 4K UHD Quantum Dot tech. The first Sky Glass lacked oomph in my experience, with less impressive detail and the black zones lacked depth too. There's also a new 'extra vivid' viewing mode to really make the colours standout, exaggeratedly so, which I really love, especially for movies. An extra speaker has been added to the built-in sound system, bringing the total up to seven. I actually thought the first Sky Glass model had pretty decent audio but the gen 2 is on a different level. The first Sky Glass was one heavy lump to carry - and you really do need at least two people to lift it. Fortunately, the hassle of installing has been made much easier (though I'm yet to try it first hand - you'll have to wait for my full review to hear about that). The Sky Glass experience remains the same on the new gen 2 with Sky's own operating system Sky OS (which has been renamed from the previous 'Entertainment OS'). Bosses say there are improved processors inside, so this should help things run smoother on the TV too compared to before.
