IPTV has grown massively in the UK over the past three years. Millions of households now use it as their primary television service. But is it worth it for you? This honest review covers everything you need to know before subscribing.
What Is IPTV?
IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) delivers television channels through your internet connection instead of a satellite dish or cable. You watch live TV, catch-up content and on-demand video through an app on your Smart TV, Firestick, phone or computer.
The technology itself is identical to Netflix or YouTube — the difference is that IPTV delivers live broadcast channels rather than pre-recorded content.

Honest Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly cheaper than Sky Sports or satellite packages
- Access to channels not available through any UK legal subscription
- No contract — cancel any time
- Works on every device you already own
- Arabic, French and English customer support
Cons
- Requires a stable internet connection of at least 10 Mbps
- Picture quality depends on your broadband speed
- Not a legal broadcast licence holder — users should be aware of this
- No offline viewing (requires live internet connection)
Picture Quality — Honest Assessment
On a 25 Mbps connection, HD channels are comparable to Sky HD quality. For fast-moving live sports, occasional artefacts can appear on slower connections.
For the best quality, we recommend connecting your device via ethernet cable and ensuring no other devices are using heavy bandwidth during live sports.
Price — Is It Worth It?
| Comparison | Annual Cost |
|---|---|
| Sky Sports + TNT Sports | £816/year |
| Sky Sports only | £516/year |
| IPTV1080p Premium | $75/year (~£60) |
| IPTV1080p Gold | $45/6 months (~£72/year) |
The annual saving versus Sky Sports alone is over £450 per year.
Our Verdict
For Arabic and North African expats in the UK, IPTV1080p is exceptional value. There is no other service that gives you Moroccan channels, Algerian channels, beIN Sports Arabic and Premier League coverage in a single affordable subscription.
For viewers who want only UK channels, IPTV is still significantly cheaper than Sky Sports but the value is less unique.
The free 24-hour trial removes all risk. Test the service during a live match or with your favourite Arabic channel before committing.
