"Sling is definitely a much better option than cable. I do have some buffering issues from time to time but my experience is mostly positive. There is between a 5 and 30 second delay from live TV (seems to vary by streaming device type) which can be frustrating while watching sports when friends message you after a goal/touchdown/basket/score-unit before it has happened on your TV. The Sling app interface navigation is pretty terrible. If you want to watch the very last channel in the list of hundreds of channels, the only way to get to it is to push the right or down arrow hundreds of times. You can add channels to the "my channels" list which is basically favorites. But, when that list gets full, it devalues the favorites list since you're just scrolling again but in a different area. I've considered switching to other streaming TV services because of just this. I'm sure a simple update could fix it but here we are a year later and it's still a problem."
"Great channel line-up at a price one can afford... Sling is awesome!"
"Love it! Has the channels I want to watch."
"I like all the sports stations,but I would like Fox News,Fox Sport One,and BTN"
"Have had it for 6 months love it!"
"We rarely have any issues. It streams well and a lot of channels have the ability to re-watch shows that aired previously. I like that I don’t have hundreds of channels that I’m honestly not sure that anyone watches anyway. Along with my antennae to get the local channels, I get all that I want to see. And the price is decent."
"I love the fact that I can view tv at a lower amount than the national cable tv network is offering without unwanted shows and statiions."
"Cut my Comcast bill from $135 down to $29. I Have all my favorite channels with no hassle. I wish I would have known about this $1400(roughly per year) ago! "
"Sling claims to be a la carte, but they really aren't. The lowest tier is $22 and other than the ESPN channels, pretty useless. Streaming is good, but the value is hard to find. "
"Sling TV has more of the channels I watch than PS Vue, Directv now and is more widely available than YouTube TV and Hulu TV plus it offers on demand and DVR. Only minor problems with DVR service sometimes. "
"Sling is a great alternative to Dish and Direct if economics is important. All channels are crystal clear. The menus options are easy to read.
Make sure you have plenty of bandwidth with your in-home network.
We left Dish (yes I know Sling is a part of Dish) and kept the great channels and saved over 100 dollars a month.
You can't go wrong."
"All channels and services I want in one place for an amazing price!"
"I like using sling and would like to see channels offered "
"I am not interested in foreign language stations. I would like to substitute them for channels I might watch."
"Overall I love sling I only wish they had basic channels attached! "
