Disney+ Hotstar has announced a price adjustment for packages in Thailand, discontinuing the old Basic package priced at 799 baht per year. Instead, they are now offering the Standard package at 1,590 baht per year, allowing for more devices to stream content in full HD resolution.
Previously in Thailand, Disney+ Hotstar offered 2 packages: Basic and Premium as follows:
– Basic priced at 799 baht per year, enabling streaming on 1 device only, specifically on mobile and tablet devices, with HD resolution (720p).
– Premium priced at 2,290 baht per year, allowing simultaneous streaming on 4 devices, including PC and smart TVs, with 4K resolution.
The new Standard package, replacing the Basic package, is as follows:
– Standard priced at 1,590 baht per year or 199 baht per month, enabling streaming on 2 devices simultaneously, supporting PC and smart TVs, with Full HD resolution (1080p).
The Premium package remains unchanged. The introduction of the Standard package aims to unlock the limitations of the Basic package in terms of the number of devices, device compatibility, and resolution, albeit at a higher price. It remains to be seen how Thai consumers will respond to this new Disney+ Hotstar package and its pricing adjustments, which are now reflected on the Disney+ Hotstar website.
