Best Streaming Service for 4K Content – CNET
Best Streaming Service for 4K Content - CNET
What’s the best streaming service for 4K overall?
We landed on Netflix as our overall pick because of its incredible volume of 4K content. You have to pay more to vied it, but the platform’s originals, user-friendly interface, features and rotating catalog give it a leg up. Max and Apple TV Plus come with their own advantages, but each service has limitations compared to Netflix.
There are other high-quality streaming services that offer 4K so even though Netflix is currently our first choice, it may not align with your budget or preferences. Plus, you may opt to buy Blu-ray discs to see 4K-resolution video. But a streaming service is the most convenient way to go. Here’s a look at the top streaming services for 4K content.

Netflix has one of the largest 4K libraries among the streamers, with more than 1,200 titles available in the US alone. However, you must have its highest-priced subscription at $20 a month to access any of it. Most Netflix originals are available in 4K UHD, as the company began requiring that original productions be shot in the format in 2014. Non-originals like Seinfeld, Minions: The Rise of Gru and Groundhog Day are also streaming in 4K.
In addition to the platform’s vast lineup, the premium plan also offers Dolby Atmos, spatial audio and four simultaneous streams. Look for the Ultra HD icon in the description or search for 4K content by typing "4K" or "Ultra HD" in the search bar. Pro tip: If you’re watching a 4K title on Netflix that doesn’t seem to be streaming in the correct resolution, check the app’s playback settings to make sure it’s set to "high."
