Buying sky glass tv

Signing up for sky glass but have not signed contract.  We have bt hub showing 32mps, I have heard that even with 50  you cant use other devices.  We have 10 registered apparently none of us game  etc just your normal pc, tv, kindles,phones.  What is the current experience of people please.

So that internet speed is just about the minimum required for glass/stream.

 

it would likely mean that if you are utilising other devices at the same time e.g pllaying online on a games console for instance you may find your Sky Glass fails to function properly, with things running slowly maybe failing it load and lots of buffering of live channels.

32Mbps is borderline. It can work for some people with that kind of bandwidth but there are so many variables that it's impossible to tell for certain unless you try it. 

It may be simpler to get a Stream puck rather than a Glass TV - it gives you the exact same streaming experience on your own TV so you can see how functional it will be. If it works for you then you could easily sign up for a Glass TV too or as a replacement for the puck.

@Niggles99  What's the attraction of getting an outdated TV against a good quality TV with a Puck?
