Samuel Gibbs reviewed
Sky's Q box a week previously and gave it a glowing five star review, despite the lack of HDR and Amazon Prime. I think he's just more familiar with Sky Q as his criticisms of the V6 aren't substantial.
I prefer Sky's blue to Virgin's purple but other than that have few problems with Virgin's EPG's TiVo design. We're not permitted dishes on our property so I've never been a Sky customer. Virgin with an occasional month or two of Now TV meets all our TV needs, and £99 a month is a lot less than my friends with Sky Q pay for all of their services.
