Having returned to Sky after a 2 year hiatus my initial thoughts were a vast improvement with Glass 2 over 1. The picture quality has improved markedly, but......
• In the past month lost the Playlist on at least three occasions.
• Almost everyday I have to reset internet connection despite following rigidly the steps required to have a robust connection.
• Technical issue cannot load has raised its ugly head on a few occasions, Ethernet connection full fibre.
• Concerning! Flickering screen despite correct auto dimming settings.
Issues from what 4 years ago still remain 😟
Other than flickering screen that could be a backlight issue requiring a new TV the other points are niggles but surely after all this time they should be resolved!
I fully agree with your points. I optimistically purchased a Glass gen2 when they launched but it lasted less than a week before I returned it. Yes, it was an improvement on the gen1 but for me, personally, I've lost all trust in Sky and in particular their streaming products.
SkyOS is a great idea and would be amazing if it worked reliably, but it still feels too shaky to recommend to anyone.
I personally won't be purchasing any hardware from Sky again. Today's Sky Live announcement just shows how badly they can get it wrong. Sky Glass is a great idea, but for me the hardware just isn't good enough for the price and the SkyOS infrastructure is just too unreliable.
