These are the Netflix subscriptions
Are you planning to take out a Netflix subscription? Then there are three options to choose from. Which subscription you need mainly depends on your use and whether you only need the account for yourself or want to watch the latest films and series with several people. Below we will discuss the Netflix subscriptions with you.
Netflix Basic
The cheapest subscription is called Basic and as the name suggests, you only get the basic functions of Netflix. You can watch all films and series, but in SD quality. In other words: streaming is in 720p resolution and that does not last.
The low resolution is still okay on smaller devices (such as your smartphone), but on televisions you will see that the image is not sharp. Also important to know: with Netflix Basic you can only watch on one device at a time.
- Costs: 8.99 euros per month
- Image quality: maximum HD (720p)
- Look up one device
- Works up your phone, tablet, computer and television
Netflix Standard
The middle subscription is Netflix Standard. You then watch in full HD quality (1080p), which looks nice and sharp on almost all screens. However, on 4k TVs it can be even sharper – more about that later. With Standard you can also watch on two devices at the same time; useful if you want to share your account with a family member or partner.
- Costs: 13.99 euros per month
- Image quality: maximum full HD (1080p)
- Look up two devices at the same time
- Works up your phone, tablet, computer and television
Netflix Premium
Want the best of the best of Netflix? Then you need the Premium subscription. You then watch films and series in 4K quality (provided titles support this) and have HDR support. With Premium you are assured of the best image quality.
The HDR support makes images look more vivid and realistic. You can also stream on six devices simultaneously. You pay a lot for all this, because Netflix Premium costs 18.99 euros per month. This makes it one of the more expensive streaming subscriptions in the Netherlands.
- Costs: 18.99 euros per month
- Image quality: maximum ultra HD (4K)
