Sling TV’s packages and pricing compared

Sling Orange

Sling Orange is built for cord-cutters who want to keep up with the top national and international sports. Its exclusive channels include ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN3 and MotorTrend, along with Disney Channel and Freeform. There are no simultaneous streams allowed with this plan, so it may not be ideal for households with multiple viewers.

Sling Orange also shares 28 channels in common with Sling Blue, including A&E, AMC, BBC Americ a, CNN, Comedy Central, HGTV, Lifetime, Nick Jr., TBS and TNT. Both packages also include 50 hours of cloud DVR storage, which you can upgrade to 200 for $5 a month. Some content from the channels in each plan is also available on-demand.

Sling Blue

Sling Blue includes 43 channels, spanning a wide range of entertainment, news and some sports coverage. Highlights include Discovery Channel, E!, Fox Sports 1 (FS1), FX, Fox News, NFL Network, TLC and USA. 

Additionally, this plan includes ABC, Fox and NBC in select markets, plus simultaneous streaming on three devices. Altogether, this is a great choice for families with multiple viewers who want a wider selection of programming.

Sling Orange & Blue

This combination plan is built for budget-conscious streamers who want a little bit of everything. At $ 60.99 per month, it’s still a great deal, but it gives you a more complete package than either plan on its own. 

Sling Orange & Blue features 46 channels from both individual plans — including any local channels available in your market — and you can stream on up to three screens at once on most channels.

What add-ons does Sling TV offer?

Besides being one of the most affordable live TV streaming services, Sling also stands out for its customizability. The platform offers a huge selection of add-ons, which you can use to design your perfect channel lineup.

Sling features several pre-made sets of channel extras, each designed to serve different viewers with sports, entertainment, news or family programming. Exact channel selections and pricing for these packages depend on your base plan. You can also add a variety of premium channels, Spanish-language programming or niche extras. 

Sling recently partnered with Max to give subscribers a new premium add-on option. Sling TV users can now add the Max Ad-Free plan to their subscription which gives access to Max content through the Max app and eight HBO channels in the Sling TV channel lineup: HBO East, HBO West, HBO 2, HBO Latino, HBO Family, HBO Zone, HBO Comedy and HBO Signature.
