As a previous Xfinity Comcast subscriber, I regret not taking advantage of getting Peacock Premium free. I want to help prevent you from making a similar mistake. So I’ll show you how to watch Peacock with Xfinity. To get you started with Peacock, I’ll cover these points:
Let’s get you into this streaming app. What Is Peacock TV?Peacock TV is a streaming service owned by NBCUniversal (a Comcast company). It hosts thousands of a combination of movies, series, Originals, live events, sports, and more. The service offers free, paid, and commercial-free plans. Prices for each plan will vary. And when subscribing to their paid plan, NBC will give you access to more content. Examples of what you’ll get include Peacock Originals (NBC-exclusive content) and sports. Existing Comcast Xfinity subscribers (on qualifying plans) will get a free Peacock Premium subscription. Meanwhile, anyone can download the Peacock TV app and use the Free plan. Speaking of: You can download Peacock on a myriad of devices. Noteworthy examples include the PlayStation 4 and Samsung Smart TV. Watching content on Peacock WILL contribute to your Comcast Xfinity data cap. With the 1.2 terabytes (TB) of data you have available, you can watch [1]:
You can bypass the data cap by using Xfinity Wi-Fi hotspots, paying $30 a month for the Unlimited Data add-on or $25 per month for the xFi Gateway Complete (modem/router combo). DVR subscribers also can’t record content on Peacock. How to Watch Peacock StreamingBefore watching Peacock on any device, you’ll need to create a Peacock account. Whether you get Premium free from Comcast Xfinity, use the Free plan or pay for it. Follow this link to Peacock’s website and pick a plan. If you’re a Comcast Xfinity user, choose the Free plan. If you’re a qualifying Xfinity subscriber and want to claim your free Peacock Premium subscription, visit PeacockTV.com/account. Once you’re there, scroll down to ‘Link Provider.’ Log into the Xfinity account used for your service and link it to your Peacock account. How to Watch Peacock on the X1 and Xfinity FlexTo watch Peacock on your Xfinity Flex and X1 TV boxes, follow these steps:
Alternatively, you can press the microphone button on your Voice Remote and say “Peacock.” You CAN’T watch Peacock content in 4K when watching on the Flex or X1 TV boxes. Xfinity Comcast only specifies that these devices don’t support 4K (with Peacock). How to Watch Peacock With Any Other DeviceCreate a Peacock account and select your subscription. If you’re a Xfinity subscriber, refer to the previous points to connect your account to reclaim Premium for free. Navigate to your device’s app store, search for ‘Peacock TV,’ and download the app. Open the app, log into your Peacock account, and select something to watch. Peacock Streaming PlansPeacock gives you a few packages to choose from that include:
The following section will cover each plan in-depth. I’ll cover pricing, features, and other exciting tidbits. Peacock (Free)Peacock Free is NBC’s free ad-supported streaming service available to anyone. You’ll find enough content to keep you entertained for thousands of hours. But you won’t find Peacock Originals, sports, and other series. Peacock PremiumPeacock Premium acts as Peacock’s paid version of their streaming service. It costs $4.99 a month or $49.99 annually (18% savings). You’ll find significantly more content on Premium compared to its Free counterpart. I’ll cover these differences in a bit. Comcast Xfinity will give you a subscription to Peacock Premium for free if you have any of these Xfinity devices or plans:
* Xfinity Comcast gives Internet subscribers a single free Flex device. If you want two or more TV boxes, you’ll need to pay $5 per month (per device). With Peacock Premium (and Premium Plus), you’ll have access to over 20,000 hours of content. Some perks you’ll have over the Free plan include:
Netflix has around 36,000 hours of content yet costs double the price [2]. You’ll TECHNICALLY get more value with Peacock. If you prefer NBC’s streaming platform’s content. Keep in mind that I don’t trust the source too much on the site that I sourced for Netflix’s content hours. It’s an estimate. Either way, NBC Peacock Premium gives you a decent value. And if you meet one of the requirements to get it free, it’s worth browsing the content available on this platform. Peacock Premium PlusPeacock Premium Plus only differs from Peacock Premium because it offers an ad-free experience. It costs you $9.99 a month or $99.99 a year. Again, you’ll save 18% if you pay for the annual subscription. I found a trend when researching the number of commercial breaks in Peacock Free and Premium. Many people have said they’ve experienced five ads per hour-long show. Each 30–90 seconds each. This research suggests 8.7 ads per hour or 4.6 commercial breaks per 22-minute series [3]. The former bit of research suggests 7.5 minutes worth of ads per hour. In contrast, the latter says 13 and a half minutes. I don’t mind ads. Because it gives me time to use the bathroom or stretch my legs. Everyone’s different, though. Determine whether you can endure ads. Or if you’d want to pay an extra $5 per month to eliminate them. What Devices Can I Use to Watch Peacock StreamingDevices that you can use to watch the Peacock TV app include:
