Quick Summary
Sky has extended its offering to include smart home devices, with a new Smart Doorbell, Indoor Camera, plus a collection of sensors to keep your home safe and secure.
Starting at just £5 per month (with a £15 upfront fee), the devices are designed to be more affordable than other brands.
Sky might be best known for its TV services, but since the introduction of Sky Glass in 2021, it has also grown as a electronics manufacturer, too. Indeed, it is now the UK’s biggest television maker, selling more sets than rivals annually.
Aiming to take on the likes of Ring, Blink and Nest, the Sky Smart Home range includes a Smart Doorbell, which gives you similar functionality – such as 1080p video with night vision and live streaming through the Smart Home app.

You will need to also subscribe to Sky’s Smart Home Plan for 30-day cloud video recording and smart alerts, but that costs just £5 per month with a £15 upfront fee. For that you get the doorbell and an included wireless chime which you can place somewhere in your home.
There is also a bigger package of devices available – the Sky Smart Home Bundle. Priced at £8 per month with a £20 upfront fee, you get the Smart Doorbell and Smart Home Plan, plus an Indoor Camera that records and feeds up to 1080p video. There are also additional features available through the dedicated app.

And you can add extra Indoor Cameras for £50 each.
