In this video I unbox the new Sky Q set top box TV system. Sky Q is a 4K Ultra HD ready satellite and Internet TV service from Sky, comprising the Sky Q Silver receiver and the Sky Q Mini box. • Sky Q represents the biggest leap technology advance from the UK broadcaster since the launch of Sky+ a decade ago. It introduces the concept of Fluid Viewing, which means you can watch your recordings on any connected device. I take a closer look at each box, and peer behind some of its covered inputs. • The Sky Q TV System unboxed… • • Sky Q is an entirely new premium pay TV platform from UK Pay TV provider Sky. It combines regular satellite Sky channels with downloadable catch-up and Video On Demand, as well as network streaming. • 0.29: At the heart of the system is the Sky Q Silver receiver. I asked Sky Q Director of Product Planning and Design Andrew Olson what Q stood for. He said it stands for nothing, it just sounds cool. Well that’s fair enough. • 0.40: Like Sky+, the Silver box is a PVR/DVR and has a 2TB hard drive. With 300GB reserved by Sky for push content, 1.7TB is available for personal recordings. • As you can see it’s very slim and has a shiny silver trim. The Q logo glows blue, and there is a WPS button for connecting Sky routers and Sky Q Mini boxes. • The viewing card slot is on the side. • 1.15: So on the rear, things are pretty clean. There’s no room for legacy AV. There’s a digital optical audio, covered Ethernet jack, twin USBs. Beside the HDMI output is a covered second HDMI. There’s also twin dish feed. • On the underside we have a small fan. • 1.40: Because this is the future, Sky Q is ready for 4K services. The box is Apple AirPlay compatible as well as Bluetooth enabled. This is quite possibly the first ever licensing of AirPlay for a non-speaker device.There are 12 tuners and you can record four channels at once. One new feature is My Q. Here a Continue function allows you to pick up watching on one box,where you left off on another. My Q will automatically record the next episode of a show you were watching. If it's an On Demand programme, it still shows up, but with a download icon. • 2.06: Another big change is the remote control. This is the Sky Q Touch, it’s a Bluetooth controller with a touchpad. It also has a built in mic but that’s not activated yet. There are Sky and Home buttons which replace the old planner. You swipe to navigate. There are transport controls and record button. • Quite different from the old Sky remote. It’s nicely made, and I think feels good in the hand. Also in the box is a power lead and an HDMI cable. • 3.07: Just to get a sense of how small the Silver is this is my Sky+ box. It’s not particularly big, as you can see, but seems absolutely massive with the Silver on top. A look at the rear shows just how neat and tidy the new Sky q is, even with unused USBs. • 3.31: Onto the Sky Q Mini, which is where the system starts to get really interesting. The Silver can stream to two Minis simultaneously. You can watch live TV, any of your recordings or on-demand stuff. • The remote isn’t Bluetooth it’s a standard IR controller, which means nice clickable buttons. You can also use this to control the bigger Silver box. • 4.29: So this is the Mini, which lives up to its name. There’s an embossed Sky logo on the top. The front has a WPS button to link to the Silver box. • On the rear there’s an optical audio output, HDMI and Ethernet, here covered, most will use Wi-Fi. You can’t watch 4K through a Mini. It’s HD only. Any 4K recordings on the planner of the main box will not appear on the Mini at all. • • Sky Q boxes create there own private mesh network over 5GHz to interoperate. The video stream is a private channel between devices. • Subscribe To My Channel And Never Miss A Review Or Unboxing • http://www.youtube.com/subscription_c... • My Sky Q unboxing contains a sound slice from But Enough About Me, Bill Paxton by Chris Zabriskie, licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution licence.
