Virgin Media's Sky Q rivalling TV service launches this month - how to get this upgrade
Sky Q might be considered the best way to watch TV in the UK but Virgin Media is fighting back in the telly wars with a new service called TV 360. This update was announced last month with Virgin confirming that it will be coming to homes by the end of 2020. That means there can only be a few weeks left until some customers will be able to get their hands on this refreshed and feature-packed set-top box. Virgin is yet to confirm a specific launch date but, as we now head into December, we’re expecting more news on a release in the coming days and weeks.
This is a very big upgrade from Virgin with TV 360 offering a swathe of features that its customers have long been missing. And perhaps the biggest change for those that take the plunge is the inclusion of Virgin’s Mini boxes. These additional devices can be added to two extra rooms in your home and offer live TV, on-demand shows and all of your recordings without needing wires trailed up your stairs.
You can even use these Mini devices to set recordings and, unlike Sky’s Q service, Virgin has made sure these boxes are 4K Ultra HD compatible bringing pin-sharp content to all of your TVs.
Along with an easy way to beam telly around your home, there are plenty more treats including a new user interface which makes it much more simple to find your favourite programmes and navigate around all of the content on offer.
