Disney+ has announced the rollout of HDR10+ support for its streaming library, marking a significant enhancement in picture quality for viewers. Currently, this feature is limited to select content, primarily titles from Hulu—acquired by The Walt Disney Company in June—where over 1,000 titles are now available in HDR10+. Disney+ previously supported only HDR10 and Dolby Vision formats, making this a notable upgrade for high-dynamic-range enthusiasts.

Expanded Content with HDR10+ Support

The introduction of HDR10+ at Disney+ is part of a broader effort to improve viewing experience through advanced HDR technology. Samsung, a key partner in this initiative, announced that its 2018 and newer models—including Crystal UHD, OLED, QLED, The Frame, and Micro RGB TVs—are compatible with HDR10+. This means users with compatible Samsung TVs can enjoy enhanced contrast, brightness, and color accuracy for supported titles.

Future Plans for Additional Content

While the current rollout is limited to Hulu content, Disney+ plans to expand HDR10+ support to more of its original programming in the future. This move aligns with the company’s strategy to deliver premium visual experiences across its streaming platforms. For viewers eager to access HDR10+ content, ensuring your device supports this format is essential, and more compatible titles are expected to be added over time.

Device Compatibility and Availability

Samsung’s announcement highlights that its range of compatible 2018 and newer TVs is among the first to support HDR10+ streaming from Disney+. As the technology becomes more widespread, other device manufacturers are likely to follow suit, broadening access for users across different brands and models.
