VERDICT
Sorry, Philo is only available in the United States... for now. [Contact Support for more information.] - philo.com
Depends. US residents wanting a cheap cable replacement should buy. Anyone outside the US should not — the service is hard geo-blocked and VPN workarounds are unreliable.
Medium. Based on 12 public sources; most document the geo-block, not product depth. No first-party pricing or security data was accessible.
Guess: ~$28/mo

Cheap US-only live TV for cord-cutters. Useless abroad: hard geo-block, VPN workarounds break.
