By surprise, this Monday, October 11, was the day chosen by Netflix for raise your prices in Spain. The intermediate plan and the higher plan raise their cost by one and two euros respectively; with a basic plan, and perfect to enjoy on your mobile, which does not receive a price increase. We have taken the opportunity to face your competition.
Today Monday is an unfortunate day for all those who use Netflix in Spain: the company has raised prices for most subscription ranges, especially the most expensive, which offers content in 4K and more simultaneous devices. But it is not necessary to pay so much if you are going to watch Netflix only on your mobile, it is worth with a cheaper subscription. Let’s see how much and how it is compared to the rest of the platforms that make it the competition.
From 7.99 euros you already have Netflix on your mobile
Updated price table for Netflix Spain
The most popular content platform on the planet has raised prices in Spain, but not for the most basic plan of all, that of 7.99 euros. Specifically, the standard subscription goes from 11.99 to 12.99 euros; with the most complete, the Premium, from 15.99 to 17.99 euros. In both cases, the quality of playback and simultaneous devices is increased, but they are not essential features if you are only going to play Netflix on the phone.
To watch movies and series on your mobile, both by streaming and after downloading the content, it is not necessary to purchase a higher plan since the quality of the touch screens, and their size, makes the 720p resolution of the basic Netflix subscription is sufficient. The rest of the platforms offer better quality in their equivalent plans, Netflix is at a disadvantage here.

Each content streaming platform has a catalog that is gradually expanding. Netflix and Amazon Prime Video offer more titles, HBO Max (will arrive on October 26) specializes in its own productions without neglecting the portfolio of third parties and Disney + is exclusively focused on its own content.
For its part, Filmin maintains a very careful grill that is aimed at the most cinephiles; Tivify allows you to watch all DTT channels at no cost and Movistar + Lite selects its own series and production channels. We have left Apple TV + out because it does not have an application for Android mobiles (yes Android TV).
