Hi my Name is Adrian and I’ve got a sky q box I pay just under £40 which is a good price but also not the best price, my brother told me about sky stream might be cheaper for me, I was also thinking about sky glass might be a good choice as well because it's 4K tv people said it's good for gaming as well is this true as I have a ps5 console and always wanted a 4K tv but they are always too expensive I must also mention I am disabled and don't like talking over the phone to sky as I get very confused and i get very stressed as well which one would you recommend for me
please can you help me many thanks.

Last November I sold my Glass TV and bought a 65" Samsung and Soundbar and have been very happy with my setup, I only wish I had done it earlier as it is far superior to Glass. As @TimmyBGood has mentioned Glass is a 3 year old TV at a premium price which is certainly not justified. It was only mediocre when it was launched.

Frankly you'd almost certainly be better off investing in a more recent television set which is capable of 120Hz and use that with a Stream puck. All current Glass sizes are now almost three years old but still priced at their original cost, which is essentially unique in the market.

Glass finally gained an Auto Low Latency Mode in a recent software update, but fundamentally remains a not particularly distinguished 60Hz LCD panel in a world where 120Hz gaming on OLED monitors is now pretty common.
