    My new Apple TV came with a Sling trial, which is a nice offer. We have already had Sling for a couple years and it has been a good option for streaming TV; especially when we used to pay a ridiculous amount of money for cable. I don’t miss cable at all and would definitely recommend Sling. I haven’t tried many services like this but all in all it is reliable. I get some buffering once in awhile but it’s not that big of a deal. (I don’t think that is internet related since another major service I use doesn’t do that). It’s worth a shot, especially when you get a free trial.

    Enjoying Watching Sports in Realtime

    I am enjoying it. I am a big sports fan and I was able to view the Tour de France, World Cup games and football games in real time through this app. While it in not perfect, this is definitely better that what I had. With cable, I paid around about $70 for 200+ channels when I really only watched around 10. With Sling TV, I have 8 of those 10 for $25. Their packages are not perfect but 8 out of 10 while saving myself $45 a month is not bad.

    Well I am now officially a Slinger. I is very easy to use and supplies a great choice in viewing options. It did have an issue one day with TNT being unaccessible. No Data is what it said. Quality is good and no buffering, so it has the feel of cable.

    We've had Sling TV for about a month now and are very happy with the service. The picture will freeze at times, there is a little bit of a lag but that is likely due to our internet connection. Still highly recommend Sling TV over cable!

    Just purchased. This is not too complicated to figure out. It is a lot cheaper than with an actual cable company. It tends to buffer from time to time. I don't know if that is my internet, but it happens with someone else that has sling.

    Sling TV lays the foundation for a dream service for cord cutters, but it can be hindered by poor performance on certain for those without a solid internet connection. While buffering and stuttering can be an issue, however, performance on iOS and PC is generally pretty good. Pros: Available for streaming anywhere No setup, equipment or contract Add-on content On-demand TV shows Cons: Functions aren't consistent Unhelpful search function Major performance issues on some platforms

    Sling TV is built on three tiers, to which you can add a variety of additional packages and services. Sling Orange is the basic package, offering around 30 channels for $25 per month including AMC, BBC America, Cartoon Network, Comedy Central, Disney, ESPN, IFC, and TBS. Sling Blue offers around 45 channels for $25 per month, removing ESPN and Disney but adding FOX-owned networks like FOX Sports and FX. Since both packages have holes in the form of Disney or FOX networks, the best bundle is Sling Orange + Blue, which combines both lineups in a single $40 monthly package.

    Product was easy to use and navigate through. I have to say customer service responds very fast on chat (accidentally locked myself out of my free trial). It was comparable to the pricing of my past cable bills once you add everything back in. It did freeze up on me a little during the month I had it and was the only reason I canceled but overall was still a great alternative,

    Can't Beat the Price

    Easily the best value streaming service. It is only $25 for their base package which gets you well over 30 channels. If you need more, they offer various packages and movie add-ons. The only drawback is that you are limited to 1-3 simultaneous streams depending on your package. Thus, this may not work for large families.

    Sling is a reasonable streaming service, but we were looking to stream local channels. Unfortunately, Sling didn't offer the local channels we were looking for. I can easily recommend Sling because it's a great value for any cord cutter. Recommended to try Sling and see if you like it - 30 day free trial, which we enjoyed.
