  If your primary entertainment fix comes from streaming services, but you still want local channels and a few extras, consider the Xfinity Basic or Choice cable package. You’ll get local channels, shopping networks and digital music.

• Popular or Extra – Best for casual viewers

  There’s nothing fancy about these packages, but they’re not missing anything you’d expect from a basic cable package either. Enjoy such channels as AMC, Cartoon Network, ESPN, Disney, Food Network, HGTV, MTV, Nickelodeon, TLC, TNT and the Travel Channel.

• Digital Preferred – Best for sports fans

  In addition to ESPN and your regional sports networks, you also get CBS Sports Network, ESPNews, ESPNU, MLB Network, NBA TV, NFL Network and NHL Network. The package also comes with the Cooking Channel, DIY Network, Flix and Starz Encore®.

Xfinity TV equipment and the X1 DVR

Available with select Comcast TV packages, the Xfinity X1 cable box gives you full control to find, watch and record your favorite shows.

X1 DVR capabilities:

• Find shows, change channels with the Xfinity Voice Remote
• Record up to six shows at once
• Store up to 500GB of content
• Access popular streaming services, such as Netflix and Pandora, straight from the device
• Watch live and on-demand TV at home and on the go with the Xfinity Stream app
• Download shows to your mobile device with the Xfinity Stream app and watch offline

If you don’t bundle Xfinity TV and internet, you can still get DVR service, but it will come with less functionality than the X1 DVR. Or, if you don’t need DVR service, go with a standard TV box or HD receiver. Xfinity is also one of the few TV providers to allow you to use your own compatible TV equipment.

Xfinity equipment fees

You’ll probably want to add TV equipment with your Xfinity service, and it will likely increase your monthly bill per TV. 

HD fees

Depending on which devices you choose, Xfinity may also hit you with a $9.95/mo. “HD Technology Fee.” Customers are most likely to encounter this fee when they opt for HD receivers that aren’t the X1, as Xfinity often waives the fee when you choose the X1 DVR.

Broadcast fees

Most Xfinity TV packages also come with a broadcast TV charge up to $24.95/mo., as well as a Regional Sports Fee up to $19.15/mo. on packages that carry your local MLB, NBA and NHL teams’ games.
