Is Netflix 1080p or 4K?

Netflix offers both 1080p (Full HD) and 4K streaming, but the availability depends on a few factors:

1. Plan Requirements:

• To stream in 4K on Netflix, you need the Premium plan. This plan allows streaming on up to 4 devices simultaneously and supports Ultra HD (4K) content.
• The Standard plan allows streaming in 1080p (Full HD), while the Basic plan limits you to SD (Standard Definition) resolution.

2. Device Compatibility:

• 4K streaming requires a 4K-capable device (such as a 4K TV, 4K streaming device, or a 4K-compatible computer monitor).
• In addition, you need to ensure your internet connection is fast enough for 4K streaming. Netflix recommends a minimum speed of 25 Mbps for 4K content.

3. Available Content:

• Not all content on Netflix is available in 4K. However, Netflix has been increasing its library of 4K titles over the years. You can find a mix of movies, TV shows, and documentaries in 4K, including Netflix Originals like Stranger Things, The Witcher, and The Crown.
• For 1080p content, most of the library is available in Full HD by default, but again, the quality depends on the plan and device.

4. Internet Speed:

• 1080p streaming typically requires a minimum of 5 Mbps.
• 4K streaming demands a faster connection, with 25 Mbps being the recommended speed.

Summary:

• Netflix supports both 1080p and 4K, but you need the Premium plan and a compatible device to stream in 4K.
• 1080p streaming is available with the Standard plan, and 4K streaming is available with the Premium plan on devices that support Ultra HD resolution.
