If you’re considering subscribing to Disney+, the entertainment powerhouse’s new streaming video service, give a thought to a cost-saving Disney+ Bundle that includes Hulu and ESPN+ along with all the Disney content.

Disney+ launched today with a few initial problems and the basic Disney+ subscription costs $7 a month with a seven-day free trial. With the standard Disney+ subscription, you can stream Disney Classics, Pixar adventures, Marvel epics, Star Wars sagas, National Geographic explorations, and more. Sign up for the $13 monthly subscription bundle, however,  and you can also access Hulu and ESPN+ content, a $5 monthly savings over subscribing to each service separately. (Note that the Hulu content includes ads — there’s currently no bundle with an ad-free version of Hulu). Follow these steps to get the bundle and start streaming all your favorite childhood movies.

Disney Plus

The Disney+ subscription also includes a growing list of original movies and TV series produced specifically for the streaming channel. Like Netflix and Amazon Prime, the original content will likely draw subscribers to the service on their own. New content available at the Disney+ launch includes The Mandalorian, High School Musical, Lady and the Tramp, Noelle, National Geographic’s The World According to Jeff Goldblum, and Marvel’s Hero Project.

The basic Hulu plan included with the Disney+ bundle provides full seasons of television series, movies, Hulu Originals, and more. ESPN+ adds thousands of live sports events from MLB, NHL, MLS, FA Cup, UFC Fight Nights, PPV events, Grand Slam tennis and college football, basketball, and lacrosse. ESPN+ also streams original sports-related series and the service’s 30 for 30 library of sports documentaries.

You can stream Disney+ content on four devices simultaneously, plus you can download titles to view later.  You can watch Disney+ content on a wide range of devices, including smart TVs, computers, smartphones, tablets, and PlayStation 4 and Xbox One game consoles.  If your device runs Windows PC, macOS, Chrome OS, iOS, Apple tvOS, or Android, you’re set to go. Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast, LG and Samsung TVs, and Roku can also access Disney+ streaming content. According to Newsweek, Disney+ bundle subscribers can watch Hulu on one device at a time and ESPN+ content on two devices simultaneously.

Purchased separately, subscriptions to Disney+ are $7 a month, Hulu $6 a month, and ESPN $5 a month for a total of $18. With the Disney+ bundle, the price is just $13 each month. Current Hulu subscribers will have to pay the $13 each month to Disney, and Disney will refund their $6 monthly Hulu fee. If you and your family want to dig into the Disney+ video treasure chest and watch Hulu series and ESPN+ live sports events, this deal is an excellent opportunity to save.

New Apple TV and HomePod mini are apparently ready for a fall launch
Apple finally remembered the HomePod mini exists
HomePod

Apple’s smart home hardware lineup may finally be getting refreshed after years of relative silence. According to a new report from Mark Gurman, Apple is preparing updated versions of both the Apple TV set-top box and the HomePod mini, with launches currently planned for later this fall.

The timing is notable because Apple’s home-focused products have largely remained unchanged while rivals like Amazon and Google aggressively expanded their smart home ecosystems with AI-powered assistants and connected devices. Apple now appears ready to reposition its home products around the company’s next-generation Siri and Apple Intelligence strategy.

The feature, called "Your custom feed," gives people a more direct way to break out of the usual recommendation mix. A viewer can ask for something outside their normal watch patterns, or narrow the experience around a particular moment, such as short guided meditations after work.

Sony launches True RGB TVs in the Bravia series, and it’s the start of a whole new era
Your living room is about to get a serious cinema upgrade.
Sony Bravia True RGB TV mounted on a wall

Sony just announced two new BRAVIA televisions, the BRAVIA 9 II and BRAVIA 7 II, and they might usher in a new era of living room TVs. Built around a technology the company is calling True RGB, instead of using a single white backlight like most TVs, these displays use independently controlled red, green, and blue LEDs to produce color directly from the source. 

Sony claims this results in the largest color volume ever achieved in its home TV lineup. The company has been working toward this for over two decades, starting with the Qualia 005 back in 2004. True RGB is Sony's attempt to combine the best of Mini LED and OLED into one panel, offering purer colors, brighter images, and better performance in well-lit rooms.
