Amazon has reduced the price of the Pleio Puck, a streaming device powered by the Freely TV platform, from £99 to £80. This price cut makes it an even more attractive option for cord-cutters seeking a free alternative to paid services like Sky.
What is the Pleio Puck?
The Pleio Puck launched late last year and uses the Freely TV platform, which streams live and on-demand content over the internet rather than through a traditional aerial or satellite dish. Unlike Sky, Freely is completely free to use, with no subscription fees after purchasing the device.
What's Included in the Deal?
For £80, buyers receive the Pleio Puck, a TV remote for channel changing, 12 months of premium online gaming access, and a PS5-style wireless controller. The device offers over 50 live channels, the ability to pause and rewind live TV, content recommendations, and a full interactive TV guide.
Comparison with Sky
Sky's basic package with a Stream box starts at £15 per month, rising to over £60 with added sports, cinema, and features like ad skipping. While Sky offers more channels, the Pleio Puck provides a cost-effective entry point for free TV streaming.
According to David Snelling, Technology Editor, the Pleio Puck is a viable alternative for those who find Sky too expensive, especially with the current £19 discount on Amazon.
