Argos customers rush to buy new Freeview rival offering ‘Sky Glass experience’
Sky’s innovative Glass TV is changing the game for UK households with its dish-free internet streaming service.
Currently on offer, this 4K screen brings sports, movies and entertainment right into your living room, and its easy setup has made it a hit.
However, Sky Glass comes with a catch – adding more channels can increase the monthly cost to £26, which can lead to higher bills.
But now there’s Freely, a new player in the streaming market that won’t cost you a penny. Launched just last month, Freely is packed with features like a comprehensive TV scheduler, the ability to pause live broadcasts, and personalized recommendations.
It even offers mini-guides for a quick preview of what’s currently happening and what’s next. For those tempted by the prospect of free live TV without an antenna, many TVs now come with free pre-installed, reflective Sky Glass access. These TVs are quickly gaining traction, reports the Mirror.
Retail giant Argos recently announced price cuts on these top-of-the-range TVs, and it seems customers can’t get enough. Some off-the-shelf models are listed as “in demand” and “selling fast”.
Take the Hisense 50 Inch 50E78NQTUK Smart 4k UHD HDR TV for example. It had an introductory price of £599 earlier this month, but has already been reduced to just £379. • CHECK OUT THE OFFER HERE
If that seems a bit big for your living room, there’s also a deal on the Hisense Freely 43in TV now just £329 – down from £519 • SEE THE DEAL HERE
There are also plenty of other free power screens available – see the full list below:

These new TVs are clearly enticing, but remember that they can’t match the power of Sky Glass. Bonus features on Sky Connected TV include the ability to save shows to watch later, personalized recommendations and full integration with all the top streaming platforms such as Netflix.
There are also more live channels to watch and Sky Glass has a built-in soundbar for better sound.
You can get Sky Glass for just £11 a month right now thanks to a new sale the company has launched. Full details below.
Technical offer of the week
Apple is launching new tablets with the updated iPad Air and the all-new iPad Pro hitting UK stores.
The iPad Air now boasts a more powerful M2 chip housed in an aluminum chassis, more standard storage, new colors, improved connectivity and extended battery life. For the first time, this tablet also comes in two sizes, including a standard 11-inch display and a much larger 13-inch panel.
If you’re looking to go Pro, there’s a significant upgrade to the 2024 series, with a super-slim design, a significantly improved OLED screen that’s brighter, and an incredibly fast M4 processor that makes these tablets faster than most PC notebooks.
One deal that piqued our interest comes from Sky, which is offering the 11-inch Air with Wi-Fi and Cellular from just £17 a month with no upfront cost and 100MB of data included. You can find out more about the iPad Air range on the Sky website here.
The deal is based on a 48-month contract, with a total cost of £816 over four years – by comparison, the same tablet from Apple costs £749, but doesn’t include any data and requires an upfront payment.
Sky also offers other deals, including the 13-inch Air for £21 a month or the Pro for £27 a month.
As we’ve previously noted, Sky isn’t the only network to offer iPads on contract, with Vodafone and EE also giving customers the option to buy the devices on a monthly plan.
