The lowest-priced Standard with Ads plan has been the one that’s been asked for for many years, and Netflix finally released it on November 3, 2022, in the US, Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Spain, and the UK.
The Standard with Ads plan costs $6.99 per month and is an ad-supported plan that includes “all but a few movies and TV shows” and unlimited mobile games like Oxenfree and Spiritfarer. It also allows subscribers to watch in two Supported devices simultaneously, which means you can watch two different shows (or the same show!) on two different devices, which is especially useful if you live with other people.
Subscribers to this plan will be able to stream their content in 1080p (Full HD), which is an increase from the 720p (HD) offered on the Basic plan.
Basic – $9.99 per month
The basic plan is in some ways worse than the standard plan with ads and in some ways better. At $9.99 per month, it’s a bit more expensive, but that gives you the option to download shows and movies to one device at a time. Moreover, there are no restrictions on what you can watch and you will have access to the entire Netflix library without any ads.
Unfortunately, there are a couple of trade-offs, including that you can only watch Netflix on one device at a time and that the stream you’ll receive on that device will only be able to go up to 720p (HD).
Standard – $15.49 per month
The Standard plan is Netflix’s most popular because it offers the best options for those who live in multi-person homes and want to watch their content in higher definition.
While it does come with a hefty price hike of $5.50 per month over the Basic plan, it does offer some significant upgrades that make it worth a look. First, it includes ad-free access to all Netflix content, and Standard plan subscribers will be able to stream that content in up to 1080p (Full HD). Sure, it’s not the 4K offered on the highest plan, but 1080p is good enough for a lot of people who don’t necessarily care much about the technology behind streams and just want content that looks good, which 1080p does!
The Standard plan also allows subscribers to watch Netflix on two devices simultaneously and download content to two of those devices simultaneously. This tier also allows you to add a single member who lives outside your home at $7.99 per month, which is a good option now that Netflix is cracking down on account sharing. This is very useful, especially if you have family members or friends who don’t live with you that you support or you simply want to give them the gift of Netflix.
It is also important to note that the members you invite outside your home will use their own Netflix account and password, you only need to pay to allow them to use it.
Premium – $19.99 per month
The Premium plan is the most expensive tier of Netflix and offers all the best features that a streaming device has to offer. Besides giving subscribers access to the entire Netflix library, it allows them to watch content in up to 4K (Ultra HD), which is great for those with the latest and greatest TVs.
The Premium plan also allows up to four devices to watch Netflix simultaneously, which is useful for those who live with large families or a group of friends. It also has the advantage of allowing you to download Netflix content on up to six devices simultaneously, which means that four people can watch Netflix at one time, and two more people can still watch the downloaded content without anyone experiencing any errors or getting stuck. launch it.
One of the other biggest selling points of the Premium plan is spatial audio Netflix, Which, according to Netflix, “improves audio without the need for surround speakers or home theater equipment.” Think of spatial audio as a kind of 3D audio that makes it appear in more precise locations and not just from the left or right stereo channels.
Finally, you have the option to add up to two additional members who do not live with you for $7.99 per month per user.
