We all know that the Paramount Plus application is compatible with smartphones, streaming devices, and gaming consoles. Apart from that, Paramount Plus is also downloadable on Xfinity X1 and Flex models. It also supports Xfinity Smart TVs. Since Xfinity doesn’t include Paramount Plus in its package, you need to purchase a separate subscription that costs $4.99/month (with ads) and $9.99/month (without ads).
