A subscription to Peacock Premium unlocks an immense world of streaming entertainment. Not only will you be able to enjoy up to 80,000 hours of movies, TV shows, and sports, but some of this content can be viewed in real time! And while you’ll be able to indulge in all the latest programming from NBCUniversal (including the ability to watch new episodes of NBC shows the day after they air), you’ll also have access to a library of treasured classics, including shows like The Office and Yellowstone.
With a Peacock Premium plan, you’ll be able to create up to six user profiles, and can stream on three devices simultaneously. Typically, Peacock Premium costs $8 per month or $80 annually, but this exclusive Samsung offer gives you three months at zero cost. It’s a Christmas miracle, friends!
We see a lot of Samsung deals on a daily basis, but this is a unique promotion you definitely don’t want to miss. Get three months of Peacock Premium for free when you buy a new Samsung Galaxy phone or tablet, and be sure to check out our lists of the best phone deals and tablet deals, too.
Some of the best shots in Grok Imagine’s AI-made Odyssey don’t contain actors. Ancient landscapes stretch into the distance. Close-ups of grimy hands suggest people who have touched something rougher than a keyboard. For a few seconds, the illusion holds.

YouTube videos could soon look better without eating quite so much data, right? Thankfully, the platform plans to introduce a new video format called AV2 on its web player in early 2027, promising more efficient streaming and potentially fewer playback hiccups on slower internet connections. The big headline is a roughly 30% improvement in compression efficiency over AV1, YouTube's existing video format. That doesn't guarantee every video will use 30% less data, but it could make streaming a little easier on both internet connections and data allowances.
What is AV2, and why should viewers care?
YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.
YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
