Second hand Sky Glass compatible with Sky Q

I currently have SKY Q with several boxes one of which is hardwired into my garden bar, I have the offer of a sky glass TV and wondered if it would be compatble with the current Sky Q set up I have. This would be used in the bar instead of the current TV and mini box

 

any help appreciated

Sky will not permit subscription to Q and Glass service at the same address: if you were going to acquire that Glass television set you would be using it as a somewhat inflexible semi-smart display panel (albeit one with multiple speakers) for a Q Mini box.

If the sky glass tv was bought second hand from fb marketplace for example, would you be able to just plug in your sky q box and use it like a normal oiled tv?

hi @lfcsab 

 

Yes, but there are a few settings you need to change as outlined here: https://www.sky.com/help/articles/connect-q-to-glass

Note that Glass is not OLED.
