According to the report several days ago, Sky will make use of its recently-launched Sky Q technology to broadcast Ultra HD 4K service since this August 13. Currently, the service would cover 4K content in sports, films and TV shows.
Ultra high-definition is seen as the next wave of TV viewing, and comes around 10 years after Sky introduced high-definition broadcasts. The number of pixels in any one space is typically four times more than HD, meaning colours, light and small details are much more vivid. (For detailed information, please visit What is 4K.)
As to the detailed 4K content that would be available from Sky Q after August 13, the company's "Ultra HD" service will show 124 live Premier League games, all upcoming Formula 1 races and over 70 movies in the new format. As well as football and Formula 1, Sky said it would have the UK TV premiere of James Bond's Spectre in Ultra HD, as well as Leonardo DiCaprio’s The Revenant and Matt Damon’s The Martian.
