JioCinema gets serious about its OTT business with the introduction of subscription tiers. Yes, the JioCinema Premium plan is here, priced at ₹999 a year. Let’s see what you get for that price and how it compares to its major competitors — Disney+ Hotstar, Netflix, and Amazon Prime Video.
JioCinema Premium plan benefits
JioCinema Premium is available in India now. It spices up the OTT war in the country. You pay ₹999 annually and here’s what you get:
– 12 months of premium content like HBO shows and the latest Warner Bros and DC movies. We are not sure if this includes OTT premieres too.
– You can watch it on any device as long as it supports the JioCinema app or website. You can use it on 4 devices at a time.
– JioCinema boasts the highest video and audio streaming quality.
Here’s how that compares to Hotstar and the likes.
JioCinema vs Disney+ Hotstar plan
The Disney+ Hotstar Premium tier costs ₹1499 per year and you get:
– All content like movies, shows, live sports
– You can stream content on mobile, laptops, and TV
– You can use 4 devices simultaneously.
– The content will be ad-free (except for live sports)
– The max quality supported is 4K in video and Dolby Atmos in audio.
There is a Super and Super+ (ad-free content except for live sports) plan with 2 device support at a time.
Hotstar is the one most affected by JioCinema Premium in our opinion as it not only lost IPL but also HBO content to the newcomer.
JioCinema vs Netflix
Netflix Premium plan costs ₹649 a month, which is ₹7788 for 12 months. You can watch on mobile, tablet, TV, and laptop with 4K HDR quality.
There are Standard (1080p: ₹499 a month), Basic (720p: ₹199 a month), and Mobile (480p: ₹149/month) plans. The Mobile plan as you can guess work on phones and tablets only.
It is the most expensive one and so it depends on whether it has the content you want to see and you have the money to pay for it.
JioCinema vs Amazon Prime Video
The annual plan of Amazon Prime subscription (including Prime Video) costs ₹1499. You can also grab an Amazon Prime Lite plan for ₹999 (also 12 months). The Prime Video content on Lite includes ads. The Prime Lite also leaves Prime Music out.
The Amazon Prime monthly plan costs ₹299 whereas the 3-month plan costs ₹599.
What you are paying for is not just for streaming but for the whole Amazon Prime experience which includes shopping.
However, comparing all, JioCinema seems exciting if you are a fan of HBO and WB content library.
