Streaming service Binge has revealed that 4K streaming will finally arrive for both Binge Standard and Binge Premium subscribers in October, but the Ultra High Definition option won't come for free. From the 24th of October 2023, Binge Standard and Binge Premium customers will automatically get access to 4K streaming but the same customers will pay a good chunk more for the privilege.
Binge is increasing prices (and stream quality)

Important notice about content on Binge
As of the 1st of April 2025, Warner Bros. Discovery has begun moving its HBO content from Binge and Foxtel to its new streaming service Max. We're in the process of updating our Binge guides on site but in the meantime, please note that most HBO content will be exclusive to Max moving forward.
New Binge Standard and Premium pricing
On the 24th of October, when 4K streaming becomes available, subscription prices for Binge Standard and Binge Premium plans will go up. Binge Standard will go from $16 per month to $18 per month, while Binge Premium will go from $18 to $22 per month. That's not nothing. In fact, you'll be paying over 22% more per month for Binge's top-tier, going from $216 per year to $264 per year.
Binge will also be axing its 10-day free trial offer as of the 2nd of October. So it's a bit of a one-two punch.
This news comes hot on the heels of Foxtel's sport streaming service Kayo removing its free trial and Paramount Plus pumping its prices in Australia too.
To recap, here's what the new Binge plans will look like as of the 24th of October:
