Understanding Netflix's Subscription Tiers

Standard with Ads - $7.99/Month

Launched globally in November 2022, this budget-friendly option delivers most Netflix content (with exceptions) through ad-supported streams. Ideal for cost-conscious viewers, it supports two concurrent Full HD streams and includes Netflix's mobile gaming catalog.

While resolution tops out at 1080p (an upgrade from the former Basic plan's 720p), this tier offers solid value for individuals or small households willing to tolerate commercials.

Standard - $17.99/month

Netflix's most popular mid-tier plan balances features and affordability. Subscribers enjoy ad-free viewing across Netflix's entire library in Full HD, with two simultaneous streams and downloads.

The plan stands out for accommodating shared households through its extra member feature ($7.99/month for ad-supported access or $8.99 for ad-free) - particularly valuable since Netflix tightened account-sharing policies. Invited members maintain separate login credentials while benefiting from the primary account's payment.

Premium - $24.99/month

At Netflix's highest tier, subscribers unlock UHD/4K streaming, four concurrent streams, and six download-capable devices - making it ideal for large households or AV enthusiasts. The Premium plan's standout features include Netflix Spatial Audio (simulating surround sound without special equipment) and the ability to sponsor two external members.

While priced significantly higher, this tier delivers the optimal Netflix experience for those prioritizing visual fidelity, household scale, and advanced audio features.
