Sky Stream FAQs

Your Sky Stream questions answered.

Can I still record with Sky Stream?
There's actually no need to record with Sky Stream because everything is available on demand. You can still keep your favourite and must-watch content ready at the touch of a button with Sky's Playlists. Create your own unique Playlist and you won't forget anything you want to watch at a later date.
What broadband speed is best for Sky Stream?
You can stream with broadband speeds of as little as 1Mbps for standard definition. If you want to stream high definition (HD) then ideally you would have more than 5Mbps broadband speeds. If you have fibre then you're probably well over the required minimum.
Do I keep my Sky Q box?
The Sky Q box is not required with Sky Stream because you get a sleek, small puck instead. This simple bit of tech saves space, connects directly to your TV and lets you enjoy shows, films and sport straight over WiFi.

Sky Q boxes are actually loaned, not owned, so customers won't keep their box indefinitely.
Does Sky Stream use a satellite dish?
Sky Stream does not require a satellite dish. Everything is streamed over WiFi, or you can connect the Sky Stream puck directly to your router using an Ethernet cable.
What is available on Sky Stream?
Sky Stream doesn't restrict what you can watch. Any TV that is available through a subscription with Sky Q or Sky Glass is also available through Sky Stream - it's simply a streamlined way to watch.

Sky. Simplified.

Our Sky review

What is Sky Stream?

Sky Stream is essentially a small box that plugs straight into any TV, providing you access to all the Sky content you are subscribed to. All you need is a WiFi connection, no satellite dish is required! 

How much is Sky Stream?

The Sky Ultimate TV & Netflix basic package that Sky offers its customers will stay at just £26 a month when Sky Stream releases, but if you don’t fancy signing up to the 18-month contract, users can pay £29 a month for the same package on a rolling monthly basis. 

See the prices of each add-on below: 

  • Sky Cinema: £13 a month (rolling) or £11 a month (18-month contract)
  • Sky Sports: £27 a month (rolling) or £25 a month (18-month contract) 
  • UHD and Dolby Atmos: £5 a month (both)

To watch your Sky content on other TVs around your home, an extra Sky puck with the Whole Home Package will cost an extra £12 a month, with five additional pucks available per Sky subscription.

There is an upfront cost of £39.95 with Sky Stream, or just £20 if you choose to take out the 18-month contract.

What resolution can I watch with Sky Stream?

Your standard Sky Stream package comes ready for you to watch in HD, with UHD available as an add-on at an additional cost. 

How do I set up Sky Stream?

Plug the Sky Stream box into a power socket and then into an HDMI output on your television. All you need to do next is connect Sky Stream to your WiFi network and you’re good to go. Sky does say that a minimum of 25Mbps is required for Sky Stream to function. 

Can you record on Sky Stream?

Any show you want to catch up on will require you to stream it from the appropriate On Demand or catch-up service - there is no hard drive for customers to record programmes or movies and store them. The Sky Q satellite service remains the choice for Sky customers who want to keep the ability to be able to record.
