Sling TV

I've heard great things about Sling TV especially with satellite costs going up and up. I would recommend this to others because you don't have to pay for those other channels (shopping networks, etc.) that you do with satellite.

I like this service. I just with the cost was a bit lower. When you add up all the streaming services you need to “cut the cord” your into it for as much if not more than purchasing satellite tv and if add in your internet cost it way more.

Great alternative to Cable TV

For $25 membership with Sling TV, we cut the cord and kissed cable TV good buy. You can get either Sling TV the blue or the orange or a combination of the two, with a large selection of international channels, like Arabic, Farsi, Turkish etc. Also you can add individual channels on a la carte style and pay individually for the channels you actually watch instead of paying $250 for hundreds of channels you never watch. We kissed the expensive $279 cable TV good buy and enjoy a great product. With it also we have access to Netflix, Amazon prime, Show time, and HBO. I believe it beats the equivalent available products like HULU or YouTube

Sling tv is a great option to buy when you have a streaming device like ROKU. This way I get the most popular channels that I like for $25 a month for Blue package. Otherwise, you could end up paying as much as $10 for one channel.

We initially signed up for Sling Blue thinking it was a "higher tier" or something better than Sling Orange. We quickly discovered that we could not watch our favorite college team on Blue, but transition back to Orange was easy.

I subscribed to this streaming service because I thought it was the only one out there. It was good, but I found a better service. Image quality and very few local channels were my reason to cancel my subscription with slingtv.

Decent option if you want to save a little bit of money on Cable/Satellite subscriptions. Make sure to do research first before transitioning so that you have access to what you want. Package options can be a little confusing.

I was using another antenna and couldn't get NBC to work consistently. After purchasing this one, NBC displays without digitizing, but I still have the occasional cut out. I guess it is what is to be expected.

I was able to get a bunch of channels and watch some good stuff, but Sling doesn't have access to past History Channel content and I have a couple shows I really like to watch there that I need to catch up on.

Depends on How Much You Want

"Cutting the cable" depends on how much and the variety of TV you watch. SlingTV is an average alternative to IPTV, but it lacks some local channels and may premium channels that you do get/or can subscribe to with a cable provider. Personally, I was frustrated with my cable company raising the rate astronomically and I don't watch much TV in general, so saving $100/month is well worth it. If you want to watch CBS, you're out of luck, probably because CBS has a pay to watch app.
You should check out the lineup of channels offered to see if it fits your TV watching experience.

The a la carte idea for TV watching is a good idea for those who are very particular about their TV channels. I on the other hand simply like the ease of access to the channels I wanna watch. All though they are a lot.

If you don't know if you want to cut your cable this offers a good alternative, you can try it and even cancel it if you decide its not for you without having to pay any sort of fees simply because there is no contract.

Got this deal when I bought my Apple Watch. It’s not a bad service. I just didn’t keep it after the trial because I have Netflix, Hulu, and Direct TV Now and don’t really need another streaming service.

No real complaints since it's free.

Their channel plans are a little strange but it really is a la carte TV. If you only want a subset of the available cable channels and don't want "everything", you can get the service for a decent price.

40 channels free of charge

The antenna does its job. However the almost 40 channels which are usually transmitted in UHF band are not enough for a demanding customer. If you don't have money to spend it is a compromised solution.

As long as you have a decent internet connection, you can watch relatively uninterrupted. Easy to cancel, easy to set up, watch anywhere. The only thing I don't like is they claim all this "a la carte" stuff, but it still comes in packages, with extra channels that you may not want or ever have any use for. I would like to see the day that it is charged kinda like a taxi or something, maybe like $5 base charge, and $1 per channel that you want, that would be truly "a la carte" and customized. That would also give the networks a better idea of which channels people are actually willing to pay for.

I bought my Fire Stick and forgot this is a feature to set up with it. I've heard great things about Sling, but never used it myself and don't plan to because I'm set with all stream I have from other services.

I have used Sling before but I get better pricing from DirectTV Now as an AT&T customer. Last I tried the service, the app was clunky and missed a lot of features and channels important to me in the tier choices.

Great but I feel that this is no Breyer than cable with all the different packages you can select. Some of the things they’re charging extra for is something that’s already included in YouTube tv.
