Netflix to launch subscription for smartphones only

Netflix has been testing new subscription types with which to conquer users for a while. The company is now launching a new type of subscription, aimed at smartphones. It is in India where this system is first introduced. Although it should not be ruled out that over time it will expand in other markets as well.

This is the Mobile plan, of which there were already rumors last fall. But it is finally becoming real and will be launched first in a number of emerging countries, such as India or Malaysia.

Plan intended for mobile

This new Netflix subscription plan is designed so that content can be viewed on a single mobile device. So it can be a tablet or a smartphone. The transmission quality in this case would be in a 480p resolution, which is somewhat low. Although it must be borne in mind that in markets such as India, low and medium range models are mainly used. Also, it would come with a low price.

At the moment the price that this Mobile plan would have has not been confirmed. According to some rumors so far, it would be priced at half the basic. So it would cost less than $ 4, waiting for some official confirmation.

This launch will start in India first. Netflix will expand it to other markets soon, such as Malaysia, according to comments. The company does not rule out launching it in the near future in other countries if the reception they obtain is positive from consumers.
