topic UHD Sky Sports in Sky Q

UHD Sky Sports

K2ascent — Wed, 26 Apr 2023 13:56:53 GMT

I am Platinium Subscriber and have a Sky Q Box. I have a contract for Sky Sports in HD and now would be interested in viewing the Sports in UHD.

I have just noticed that in My Sky I have an offer of 2 months free UHD and then rolling 30 day contract for £4 month.

However it is not clear if this specifically includes Sky Sports as well as the other Channels.

Be grateful for any advice.

hi @K2ascent

Yes the UHD subscription covers both entertainment, movies & SKY Sports as well as Netflix if you subscribe through SKY (increasing the max devices to 4 as well)

(Although maybe worth noting the entertainment & movies UHD content is all on demand i.e. downloads)

P.S. I also suggest you check which box you have

Home - Settings - System Info - Hardware Version

Hi @K2ascent Yes the HD+UHD subscription includes Sky Sports in UHD for Sky Sports subscribers. I would check that you have an UHD box first. Hardware version 32Bxxx, B1 no HDR, B2 & B3 have HDR.

@K2ascent just re-read your opening post

You don't mention HD for non sports, further to my earlier comment, to watch entertaiment channels in UHD you do also need the separate HD add on

Thanks to all who posted a reply.

I have now checked that I have the right Qbox kit also the HD add on so good to go!
