Phone choice restrictions

Estaban1020 — Mon, 06 Apr 2026 20:37:56 GMT

Hi all,

my contract is soon to be up, but i'm finding the lack of choices phone wise is limiting me.

I look on the other well know brands and I see they have alot better selection like Oppo, Honor and Motorolla, in some case their deals are a bit better than skys, to anyone working at sky - are you planning on extending the mobile phone reange soon to include other brands ?

many thanks

Steve

Sky won't respond to your question here and as customers we have no insight into future plans.

Hi @Estaban1020 you aren't talking to sky CS here. Sky seem to mainly sell the big companies phones such as Apple and Samsung. Sky won't comment on here about future plans.

Apple, Samsung and Google control over 87% of the UK market share. The brands you mention are a fraction of the share and it seems Sky have focussed at the current main players instead of niche products.

Hi,

everyone is entitled to their opinion and I appreciate that. for BAND names I agree, however - The Oppo's, Motorola's and a few other others have a better battery life even if you hammer the phone...

Quite possibly. However while that's important for individual users it may not be particularly significant to Sky Mobile itself, for who deciding to stock an additional brand would be a multi-million pound commercial venture.
