Update, October 26:
Streaming service Max has released their prices ahead of their launch in Hong Kong. The standard subscription for Max will cost $78 per month, and allows streaming on two devices on full HD, while the ultimate subscription tier costs $98 per month, with simultaneous streaming on four devices on 4K UHD and Dolby Atmos (as supported by viewers’ devices). There are also yearly packages which works out at a 17 percent discount compared to monthly subscriptions, at $780 per year for standard and $980 for ultimate.
A brand-new streaming service Max will soon launch in Hong Kong, as well as simultaneously in Singapore, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines. Expect to enjoy blockbuster movies, fan-favourite series, iconic films over the years, real-life content, and family-friendly picks from November 19 onwards.
Since Max is part of Warner Bros. Discovery – which owns brands like HBO, Cartoon Network, the DC universe, and Food Network – subscribers will get to watch movies and series like The White Lotus, the new seasons of House of the Dragon, Game of Thrones, Succession, the upcoming Harry Potter series and its full movie collection, Friends, Sex and the City, Adventure Time, and much more.
If you’re an existing subscriber of HBO Go, your membership will be converted automatically to Max on November 19. Watch this space for more updates as we get them.
