What is Fubo? Channels, price, plans, packages, and add-ons | Digital Trends

With so many excellent streaming services out there, finding the perfect fit for you can be more difficult than anticipated. This only gets more complicated if you’re cutting the cord with cable, but still want to stream live TV. If your household lives for sports, then one of the best options available is Fubo (formerly Fubo TV). It features plenty of sports, along with related content to inhale in between games. It also has access to plenty of great new movies and TV shows. You’ll even be able to record them, thanks to the integrated cloud DVR feature.

There’s still plenty to learn about Fubo though, so we’ve put together this guide to teach you everything you need to know about it; including pricing, device compatibility, and what some of the channels are you’ll be able to enjoy. There’s also a decent handful of competitive platforms to choose from, including Hulu Plus Live TV and Sling TV. 

Fubo price and plans

There are four Fubo plans — Fubo Pro, Fubo Elite, Fubo Ultimate, and Fubo Latino — that range in price from $35 per month to $110 per month.

Here’s how the total Fubo cost shakes out:

Fubo Pro is the new base plan and gets you 200 channels for $80 a month. With that, you’ll have unlimited cloud-based DVR (the ability to “record” shows to play back later) and the ability to watch on up to 10 screens at home and two away from your home network. This is what Fubo calls “unlimited” despite it having a pretty clear limit.

Fubo Elite with Sports Plus ramps things up to $100 a month and has 306 channels (with 130-plus events in 4K), another 54 from the Fubo Extra plan, and another 11 from News Plus.
It also includes NFL RedZone. You still get unlimited cloud-based DVR, and 10 simultaneous screens at home, with two on the road.

Fubo Deluxe is $110 a month and offers 326 channels in all (with the usual events in 4K), plus the same extra channels as Elite — 54 Fubo Extra and 11 News Plus channels. It also includes
SportsPlus with NFL RedZone, MGM+, and International Sports Plus. This plan also includes unlimited cloud-based DVR, and 10 unlimited screens, plus two away from home.

Fubo Latino is $33 a month (you may see an initial sales price) and offers 61 channels of Latino-themed content and unlimited cloud-based DVR. You can only watch two screens at once on this plan.

All of these plans come with a free seven-day trial. You can pay monthly or quarterly — but there’s no discount if you fork over the cash for three months at a time.

Fubo channels

Fubo has a competitive slate of channels. That starts with your local broadcast affiliates, though you’ll want to check the Fubo website because those can vary slightly depending on where you live.

There are a number of additional sports and news packages, too. Some of it is in addition to what you’d get with Fubo Pro or Fubo Elite, but there also is some overlap. Here’s how it all breaks down:

Fubo and 4K

Fubo, at one point, was the only live TV streaming service in the U.S. to offer up anything in 4K. (Yes, upscaled 4K, not native.) That was and remains limited to live sports, and it’s still better than nothing. But events remain fairly few and far between, with maybe a game or race a day. (Here’s the full Fubo 4K schedule.)

And Fubo isn’t the only 4K game in town anymore — YouTube TV also offers up pretty much the same events from the likes of NBC Sports and Fox. One major change from 2022, however, is that Fubo no longer throws in 4K content for free anymore on the Pro plan. Like with YouTube TV, you’ll have to pay up if you want any sort of show in 4K resolution. That means you’ll have to eschew the $80-a-month Pro plan and skip straight to the $100-a-month Elite with Sports Plus package, or the $110-a-month Deluxe plan.

And the usual caveats still apply. You’ll need to have a TV with a 4K panel, and any other device you’re using to actually stream Fubo TV will need to support 4K resolution.

Fubo devices

The short version is this: If you have a relatively new device — be it a streaming stick, connected TV, or even a web browser — you should be able to get to Fubo. The app is available on every major streaming platform.

Here’s the more detailed breakdown:

• Amazon Fire TV: This goes for all Fire TV devices, as well as the awkwardly named Fire TV Edition TVs (basically, that’s a TV with Fire TV OS as the operating system.)
• Android TV/Google TV: This means devices like Nvidia Shield and Chromecast with Google TV, as well as other devices that are running full builds of Android TV. The same goes for televisions with Android TV as the operating system.
• Apple TV: From the fourth-generation box and newer.
• Android phones/tablets: So long as you have Android 5.0 or higher — and you almost certainly do.
• Roku: It’s the biggest streaming device in the U.S. and fully supported for Model 3700X and up.
• Xbox: If you have Xbox One, One S, or One X, you’re good to go.
• Smart TVs: You can watch Fubo on Vizio from 2016, Samsung from 2015, LG from 2018, and Hisense from 2020.
• iOS/iPad OS: From iOS 13 and up and iPad OS 13.1 and up.
• Web browsers: You’re good on Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox, and Safari.
