Choose the best AT&T TV package

Need a little help selecting the perfect AT&T TV plan? We examined the top channels that come with each tier to determine which lineup is the best fit for you. Your local channels and regional sports are also included where available.

ENTERTAINMENT: Best for households that want a well-rounded channel lineup (without an emphasis on sports) at a budget-friendly price. Comes with top channels such as A&E, Bravo, Disney, ESPN, FX, HGTV and Syfy. 

CHOICE: Best for sports-minded households that don’t want to overpay for a monthly TV service. Popular channels include ESPNews, FOX Sports RSNs, Game Show Network, OWN, SEC Network, Tennis Channel and SportsNet New York. Includes everything in the ENTERTAINMENT package. 

XTRA: Best for viewing niche channels and sports. Top channels in the XTRA package are American Heroes Channel, Discovery Family, DIY Network, Golf Channel, Logo, Nat Geo Wild and Sportsman Channel. Also includes everything in the CHOICE package. 

ULTIMATE: Best for the movie fanatic household. Comes with the STARZ family of movie channels (eight STARZ channels in all), plus everything in the XTRA package. 

Optimo Mas: Best for households that prefer a combination of Spanish- and English-language channels. Popular channels include Nat Geo Mundo, Tr3s, GolTV and ESPN Deportes.

What do AT&T TV packages have that you can’t get with other live TV streaming services?

• With fuboTV you won’t find ABC, ESPN or ESPN2. You can find all of these channels, and more, in the AT&T TV CHOICE plan.  
• Unlike Hulu + Live TV, AT&T TV has options to include MLB Network, NBA TV and NHL Network. 
• YouTube TV won’t satisfy hockey fans without the NHL Network, but AT&T TV offers it. 

On the other hand, AT&T TV does not currently offer PBS, NFL Network, ION, Music Choice, Pac-12 Network or ESPN College Extra.
