There's a new way to buy and tune into Sky's channels with the firm joining forces with high street retailer Currys. The new partnership means customers will now be able to walk into stores and check out the latest Sky Glass TVs in the flash rather than just shopping online. Until now, you could only purchase these connected screens from Sky shops or its website but that's now changed.

The update means it should be easier to try before you buy (Sky Glass will be on display in over 200 Currys stores across the nation) and that might not be the only reason to take the plunge.

To celebrate the launch of the partnership, there's also a deal that is offering Sky Glass with Sky TV and Netflix from just £33 a month. That's one of the lowest prices available and includes premium content along with endless box sets and movies.

“Sky Glass offers the ultimate TV viewing experience, customers who have it tell us they love it, so we always want to find ways for more people to see and try it, Sophia Ahmad, Chief Consumer Officer at Sky explained.

"We’re excited to be partnering with Currys, the biggest tech retailer, to help bring Sky Glass to the front rooms of even more TV lovers nationwide.”

So what is Sky Glass and how does it work?

Sky Glass is an all-in-one system that lets you turn into content via your broadband rather than a dish. That makes it super simple to install as there's no need to any additional equipment or engineers to visit.

Along with a 4K screen, Sky Glass also features an in-built soundbar to help boost the audio.

There's also easy access to all the most popular streaming apps such as Disney+ and Apple TV+ plus you'll get personalised recommendations for each member of the family.

Although it doesn't have a physical hard disk - like Sky Q - you can store recordings in the cloud via the Playlists function.

Other extras include a backlit remote, the ability to pause live TV, instant catch-up if you've missed a show and it's compatible with the Sky Live camera which makes the screen more interactive.
