Sky Q has been around in Germany and Austria for a year. From now on, the 1,5 million Sky Q customers can look forward to being able to use their favorite program at home on more devices and at the same time. This is particularly interesting for households with more residents, such as families. So the new blockbuster, the favorite series and the best live sport can be watched at the same time. The Sky Q Mini makes this possible. No additional satellite or cable connection will be necessary. You have maximum freedom because you can enjoy your favorite shows anywhere.
“Since the successful launch a year ago, we have developed and improved Sky Q step by step. With the new Sky Q Mini Box, we are now offering customers maximum freedom. Whether in the bedroom, study, children's room or home cinema: Sky Q is available in every other room where customers want it, directly via the Internet and without any additional satellite or cable connection.
