I upload photos as well as videos with mini descriptions and captions as well. Thanks for stopping by for a good read.
Hello everyone, in this live stream video I discuss is 2021 the end of the movie theaters? HBO Max has recently announced that they are going to be streaming Wonder Woman 84 on Christmas Day the same as the movie theaters will be releasing the movie to the public to go see. But due to the series of life changes around us some people have fears of going out in public or going to the theaters. Just think about the money an average family member spends on going in public to then movies and think about how they spend at home streaming movies. HBO Max is $14.99 a month by itself and you have Hulu now starting at $1.99/month or $5.99/month and Netflix at $8.99-$17.99/month for all their content they have available. When you are going to a movie you are going to see just one movie. Think about the ticket prices for an average movie theater viewing per person which is roughly anywhere between $6.50-$14 a ticket. The movie experience is pretty fun and I get that. You get a nice comfy seat (I hope) big screen and loud speakers to hear the sounds and vibrations from crashes to the xplosions. But is it worth getting sick over now as we are facing a pandemic in the world? Check out my stream below and follow along as I give you my thoughts on the end of an era of how we watch movies going forward.
At&t Prepaid has a couple new featured plans now for those customers who want a little more data but for less. These two new plans start at $30/month and $40 a month. The 30 dollar a month plan comes with 5GB of high-speed data and then slows down once you use up the 5GB. The 40 dollar plan includes 15GB of high-speed data then gets slow once a user uses up all of its high-speed data. There are still a $75 plan and a $65 plan. But we just going to focus on the cheapest one right now as I chosen this to test out and see if its effective and rather or not good for most consumers that want data at a affordable price. I'm going to discuss some of additional features that also included in the plan that interest users and customers.
What Comes With The Plan?
Outside of getting 5GB of high-speed data, you can get data rollover, mobile hotspot, data sponsor, stream saver, and even wifi-calling. Now some of these features might not matter to most, but in many ways than others. Below is a breakdown of how each feature works and their benefits.
DATA ROLLOVER:
Data rollover was one of my favorite features of all time when it comes to having leftover data or unused data and being able to use the extra data in the next month. This feature surprisingly still available on At&t's prepaid service. So if you have 5GB of high-speed data and only use 2GB for the month, you'll rollover the unused 3GB of data for the next month. The downside to this cool feature is that you'll have to use this 3GB of unused data up first in the following month. If it is not all used up it will not rollover a second time meaning you'll go back to your regular 5GB of data the following month. But before you run out of that data, you can add on an additional 1GB of data for 10 dollars more or add an extra 3GB data for $20. If that's the case I would just add the additional 3GB before I run out of my 5GB of high speed data. That would be best for anyone if your using up all the data. But that's how the data rollover feature works on this At&t plan.
MOBILE HOTSPOT:
Mobile hotspot is when you allow your other devices to connect to your mobile data using your phone or tablet or portable hotspot data to connect to the internet. Rather its for streaming or listening or messaging. This is available with the $30 prepaid plan. But the data used via mobile hotspot does count against your data on your plan. Just remember this once using it.
DATA SPONSORS:
Data sponsor feature is interesting to discuss. This allows you to use your data plan without touching your mobile data. Sponsor Data enables companies to sponsor data usage for certain content for At&t customers. Sponsor data allows users to browse and stream content from sponsored companies. For example, At&t allow wireless customers to stream HBO MAX, AT&T TV and DirectTV data free without touching your mobile data. These services are sponsors of At&t. For more information, head to Att website for further details.
STREAM SAVER:
Stream saver is another interesting feature that users may like and not like. This is for when you are viewing and streaming content. It set the stream and video to 480p which is DVD quality or Standard video. This feature helps users use less data on their mobile phones or tablets. Another downside would be that this feature can't be turned off. So if you don't like low res viewing you better off upgrading to their $60 unlimited data plans or using WiFi if you don't want to spend an additional $30 to upgrade your plan.
WIFI CALLING:
Yes. WiFi Calling apparently is a feature. This is available on At&t prepaid and you can turn this on and activate WiFi Calling via the Network settings located in device settings of your mobile phone or tablet. This will allow you to still make calls and send sms over WiFi if there is no service or signal available.
BONUS FEATURE-BRIDGE PAY:
Bridge Pay is a feature option that allows you to extend your service up to 7 days longer if you can't afford to pay in full at time of due date of your bill payment. You can find this option on your at&t bill account at the bottom of your homepage. This works when your plan has expired you'll have 2 options to choose from 1GB for $10 or 4GB for $20 and yes you still have unlimited talk and text included. The only cons with is the add-on is only for the Bridge Pay and you only get 7 days of use with this option. This is basically an emergency use feature. Only when you can't afford to make your regular payment on time. This is still good to see that At&t is allowing customers time to gather some cash to make their payment.
FINAL VERDICT:
From my experience of using this plan and service, its going to be pretty tough to kill this data if you are usually on WiFi or using home internet and mainly on a low resolution mobile device especially at display of 1080p and under, 5GB of high speed data will be more than enough to get you by and get you through 30 days. The best advantages of this service is the stream saver feature and the data sponsor as these help you with saving a lot of data for browsing and streaming. Data rollover is useful as well. This is handy when you are away from wifi for a while or have no home internet. In the video below I breakdown what all I discovered with this At&t prepaid plan and the apps and services I used when using this plan and my usage of the service for the past week or so.

So in the earlier video of my podcast I was unsuccessful of setting up and starting to play the games live so the viewers could see how well Stadia performed and what games were there to play. Well in this video below I explained how I solved my issue with my Stadia system. It was stuck on the Stadia loading screen which is the screen when you about to connect the controller to your chromecast ultra. The Stadia logo glows on and off. It would not go to the next loading page. I tried unplugging the chromecast ultra from the back of my HDTV and plug it back into the HDMI port. When I did that it still showed the loading page of Stadia. So my next attempt was just unplugging the adapter from the outlet. Once I done that and plugged it back in that way the Stadia came right on and I was able to finish my setup and start playing my games.
Are you guys out there with Chromecast Ultras and Stadias having any issues with your setups? Please let me know in the comment boxes below.
Google Stadia Premier, Chromecast, Google Home Nest Mini, Google TV Remote
Hello everyone in the video below, I do the unboxing of the Google Stadia Premier Edition For Free thanks to being a member of Youtube Premium. This is was a limited time offer. The offer isnt available as of today. Maybe Google will do another giveaway via some other type of offer. But this is my unboxing experience. The box included the game controller, usb type c cable and adapter. Under the controller you also get the chormecast ultra 4k and adapter. There were booklets included as well. The controller looks pretty good and very similar to Xbox and PS controllers but it felt heavy but felt great in the hands.
During my setup experience I did have some issues with my setup and that was due to not unplugging the chromecast ultra from the outlet. That video is also coming. After I've recorded my live stream, the Chromecast Ultra and Stadia worked perfectly fine. After finally having it all setup I was playing the games for about 2,5 hours straight before I went to bed. This was 4:30 a.m. Overall, the games aren't. The library of gaming is pretty small on Stadia but Im ok and fine with it. I can play with this games anywhere with great WiFi connection on any device except for Apple devices. I recommend everyone to give Stadia a try.
