T-Mobile this week unveiled a handful of streaming services for people who love TV but hate TV providers. The Un-carrier is catering to cable cutters with three distinct platforms—TVision Live, Vibe, and Channels—as well as the TVision Hub streaming dongle.
Take your pick of platforms, starting with primary service TVision Live, which comes in three packages (Live TV, Live TV+, Live Zone) ranging from $40 to $60 a month, including local stations. This basic tier allows up to three simultaneous streams, 100 hours of cloud DVR, and more than 10,000 on-demand programs.
There's no better time than a global pandemic and tense presidential election to escape into the world of entertainment. TVision Vibe promises the best of comedy, lifestyle, and drama—all for the lowest of T-Mobile's cord-cutting costs: Spend $10 a month for 30+ channels, including thousands of on-demand programs and up to two simultaneous streams.
Particularly picky about what you watch? The Un-carrier has you covered with TVision Channels, which lets subscribers create their own lineup of a-la-carte services under one bill and one login.
"People are ready for real choice and real change in home TV, maybe this year more than ever before," T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert said in a statement. "That's exactly what TVision delivers." Cut the cord for as little as $10 a month with TVision Vibe, or tune in to live news and sports for $40 a month via TVision Live.
"That's TVision, and THAT is TV done right," Sievert continued. "The Cableopoly holds TV fans hostage, bundling live news and sports into expensive packages with hundreds of other channels that people don't want, and don't watch. Something's gotta change."
Stream all three services on any screen: Just download T-Mobile's TVision app for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV 4K, Apple TV HD, Android, Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, or Google TV. Or watch directly on your television set with the new TVision Hub HDMI streaming device and remote, on sale Nov. 1 for $50.
