He wants Netflix. She wants more Cantonese dramas. They want a speedier WiFi connection so they don’t lag out of their games.

Meanwhile, all you want is permission to step into your own house.  

In many ways, being a modern homeowner is less of an achievement and more like an occupation. We’re essentially part-time customer service executives, except our “customers” are our elderly parents, our spouses and our kids.

Even so, we do our best to provide, as hard as it might be to keep everyone satisfied.

Fortunately (for us), such a cure-all solution does exist in HomeHub+. Be it a fast broadband, a selection of catered content or simply good ol’ Netflix, here’s a bite-sized look at why this handy bundle has everything you need to appease a multi-generation household.

 

Netflix Premium and Disney+ keeps the kids entertained

For anyone who’s got kids, you’ll know full well how much joy (and often chaos) they can introduce into our lives. But as amazing and fulfilling as parenthood is, we’re only human, and we need a break sometimes too!

While we can probably leave our teens to their own devices in terms of entertainment (at least for the most part), it’s a little trickier to find avenues for younger children to channel their energy. That’s where streaming services like Netflix and Disney+ come in, and though the former supposedly appeals more to teenagers, you’ll still find plenty of fun, kid-friendly content on both platforms.

And with the young ones kept quiet and entertained for a bit, you too can enjoy a brief moment of respite. Of course, if you’re up for it, nothing beats spending quality time with your kids or teens. Ask about the shows that they’re interested in, why they like certain characters, or even watch a couple of episodes with them. After all, learning what makes your kids tick is part of what makes parenting such an amazing journey!

 

A customisable TV+ pass

Speaking of parenting, let’s move on to the next group of folks, which just happens to be, well, your folks. While there’s certainly nothing stopping your parents (or grandparents) from enjoying what Netflix has to offer, they might feel more at home (no pun intended) with content that’s on a similar wavelength.

To be specific, we’re talking about dialects and mother tongues. So, if, for instance, you come from a Chinese Hokkien-speaking family, then perhaps you’ll want to consider catering an Asian+ pass for them – the library comes with loads of popular Taiwanese Hokkien content, on top of the usual (and rather impressive) slate of Mandarin shows.

Naturally, the same goes for the other passes too, with Indian+, Malay+ and Filipino+ all offering a wide variety of programmes in their respective languages. In fact, you needn’t even be worried about watching the same content day in and day out, because after the first month of subscription, you’ll be able to switch your TV+ pass to another option once a month. In other words, you’ll be able to rotate between Entertainment+, Sports+ and more so that the content library always stays fresh.

Double-down on home entertainment experiences with TV+ Box

Alright, let’s make a pit stop. Feel free to run through and review what we’ve talked about above, but if all the talk about streaming platforms, passes and whatnot still has you muddled, you’ll be happy to know that you can actually streamline these experiences.

Case in point, if you decide to add on just $5.96/mth for a StarHub TV+ Box, you’ll be able to access all of the above offerings – including Netflix, Disney+, TV+, and more through it. In fact, you can even take your home theatre experiences up a notch with TV+ Pro, which brings ultra-vivid Dolby Vision colours, Bang & Olufsen-tuned audio architecture and support for razor-sharp 4K Ultra HD resolution with compatible setups.

An ultra-fast broadband to tie it all up

Last, but certainly not the least, HomeHub+ also comes with a broadband aspect, which we hardly need to explain is an absolute staple in the modern home. We all need the Internet for a long laundry list of things nowadays, be it work, school or leisure-related, and a slow connection is a sure to rustle some, if not all the feathers living under your roof.

Fortunately, you won’t have to worry about any of that with StarHub, and who knows, you might even get some extra goodies to go too. Currently, you’ll be able to select between a 1Gbps or 2Gbps option for your HomeHub+ package, though picking the latter entitles you to one of three freebies - a 55-inch Mi TV P1, a Xiaomi S10+ Robot Vacuum or an OPPO Reno7 Z 5G, while stocks last.

Numbers-wise, you’ll be able to pick up that option (HomeHub+ 2G) for just $110.92/mth with the Entertainment+ or Asian+ add-on, but if you’re looking for something a little less heavy on the purse-strings, there’s also the HomeHub+ 1G bundle for $63.49/mth.

Regardless of which bundle you choose, you’ll still be able to enjoy all the content buckets we’ve described above, so feel free to run the math and go with the one that best suits the needs of your household. After all, it’s all about providing the best for them, and if your family members are happy, then you probably are too!
