If you're new to Sling TV, choosing the right subscription package can be confusing. The service offers three main plans: Sling Orange, Sling Blue, and the combined Orange + Blue bundle. Each package provides different channel lineups and features, so understanding what's included helps you make the best choice for your viewing needs.
Understanding Sling TV's Main Plans
Sling TV is a popular live TV streaming service that gives you access to television programming without a cable subscription. The platform offers flexible options starting at affordable prices.
Sling Orange costs $46 per month and includes over 30 channels, with exclusive access to ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN3, and Disney Channel. This plan is perfect for sports fans who want comprehensive ESPN coverage. However, Orange only allows streaming on one device at a time.
Sling Blue also starts at $46 per month but offers over 40 channels, including Fox News, FX, NFL Network, and local channels in some markets. Blue supports streaming on up to three devices simultaneously, making it better for households with multiple viewers.
For the ultimate experience, Sling Orange + Blue combines both plans for $61 per month, giving you access to over 45 channels and the ability to stream on multiple devices.
Before Changing Your Plan
Consider your viewing habits before switching plans. If you're a sports enthusiast who needs ESPN, Sling Orange is your best bet. For households that want to watch on multiple devices or prefer news and entertainment channels, Sling Blue offers better value.
Remember that Sling Blue sometimes costs $5 more per month in certain markets where ABC is included. Both plans frequently offer promotions, including 50% off your first month.
