Peacock, NBC Universal's streaming hub, is rolling out some major deals, slashing prices by up to 50% on annual Premium subscriptions for a limited time. This is your golden ticket to a massive library of NBC Universal content, plus live sports and news, making it a strong contender against streaming giants like Netflix and Hulu.
With over 30 million subscribers, Peacock has cemented its place in the streaming wars, famously snagging exclusive rights for the Olympics and Paralympics. Fans can dive into beloved originals like "The Office," "Poker Face," and "Brooklyn Nine-Nine," alongside blockbuster films such as "Oppenheimer" and the 50th-anniversary classic "Jaws." To sweeten the deal, Peacock is offering a full year of streaming for just $80, a significant discount compared to monthly plans.
Opting for an annual plan is the smartest move, saving you about 16% and equating to just $9 per month instead of the usual $11 for the Premium tier. For an ad-free experience, offline downloads, and live local NBC channels, Peacock Premium Plus is available at $17 per month or $140 annually. Basic and Premium plans are both available for just $80 annually for the first year!
Peacock is also showering special discounts on students, teachers, military members, and first responders. College students and young adults aged 18-24 can snag Peacock Premium for as low as $3 per month, while military and teachers can get it for $4 per month. These plans allow for simultaneous streaming on up to three devices and up to six profiles with kid-friendly settings.
Looking to bundle up? Peacock offers sweet deals with Xfinity, cutting prices by 40% for a combined package at $15 per month. You can even bundle with Apple TV+ and Netflix through Xfinity Internet. Plus, eligible Xfinity Gigabit or higher speed customers can score two years of Peacock Premium absolutely free, and Xfinity Rewards members at Diamond or Platinum tiers can get it at no extra cost.
Peacock's content lineup is stacked this month, featuring new releases like the horror-comedy "Five Nights at Freddy's 2" and extensive MLB coverage, including Sunday Night Baseball. For reality TV addicts, dive into "Love Island" and its new spin-off, "Love Island: Beyond the Villa." Sports enthusiasts can catch live NBA games, playoff action, Sunday Night Football, and exclusive NFL matchups, though live sports are not included in the basic "Select" tier.
Peacock offers several tiers: Select ($8/month), Premium ($11/month) with a vast library, live sports, and current NBC/Bravo shows, and Premium Plus ($17/month or $170/year) for an ad-free experience, offline viewing, and live local NBC channels. With over 80,000 hours of content, including originals, films, and 50+ streaming channels, there's truly something for everyone.
