One of the great features of Netflix is that it offers support for HDR10 mode on a wide variety of devices. This allows users to enjoy a better quality when watching streaming content through the platform. The first terminal to launch this standard was the LG G6. Since then, there are some more who have added support, a list that grows and grows with the passage of time.
But what exactly is HDR10? Can you tell the difference between a smartphone with or without this technology? What devices can currently enjoy it? Then we clear all your doubts.
HDR10, this is how it works on your mobile
To view content in HDR10 it is necessary to have a subscription to the Netflix Premium plan, which costs 16 euros per month. Logically it is also crucial to have a terminal that is compatible with this mode. Once we meet all the requirements, it only remains to delight in the images. And is that HDR10 (High Dynamic Range, for its acronym in English) provides greater realism to the content that is displayed, whether they are movies, series or documentaries. Colors are more vivid, with a greater difference between the brightest and darkest points in an image.
It also offers a much larger color palette. This means that compatible mobiles are capable of displaying many more colors, achieving a more natural image. According to content creators, HDR10 represents a major leap in image quality. Much more than the increase in resolution to 4K. Therefore, yes, you can see the difference between a mobile without HDR10 and a mobile with this technology included.
