In short, it'll be a long time before you can watch your favorite broadcast TV shows and sports in 4K and/or HDR.īy the way, gaming is a whole other animal. Cable doesn't have any 4K broadcasts in the US yet. DirecTV has the biggest selection, with a 24-hour channel that carries a few events, and Dish Network has dabbled in 4K too.
Live and on-demand TV from cable, satellite, over-the-air antenna or a streaming service like Sling TV is almost never in 4K or HDR. So what about cable TV? It's not in 4K yet. And most include the HD version as a physical Blu-ray and digital copy (for mobile and streaming devices) as well. Buying a recent 4K movie from a service like Vudu or Amazon typically costs $30, while 4K Blu-rays are more often discounted. With the high prices of recent 4K/HDR movies and TV shows on streaming services, sometimes buying the disc is the best value. There are more than 100 titles on 4K Blu-ray now, and many of them are in HDR. The exception is original series on Netflix and Amazon, like "Daredevil" and "The Man in the High Castle." Many of them are available in 4K.ĤK Blu-ray is the other common source of actual 4K and HDR movies. Chances are, whatever show or movie you want to watch won't be in 4K or HDR. The catch? All of these streaming services only offer a tiny portion of their vast libraries in 4K. Hulu also has 4K now, but only on a couple of devices. A couple of less-popular services like Google Play Movies and TV, Sony's Ultra, Fandango Now and UltraFlix4K offer additional options. Or you could buy a 4K Blu-ray player and (gasp) actual physical discs at $15 a pop and up.ĤK streaming services Netflix, Amazon, Vudu and YouTube have the biggest selection of 4K movies and TV shows. If you want your 4K fix right now, you'd better have a fast Internet connection and be a fan of original series on Netflix and Amazon. The same goes for HDR (high dynamic range), which in our tests makes bigger picture quality difference than 4K.
4K TVs are falling in price with the speed of a runaway train, but 4K content, the stuff you can actually watch in 4K today, can seem stalled in the station.
Looking forward to watching your favorite baseball team in 4K? Can't wait to TiVo HBO's 4K broadcasts of "Game of Thrones?" Excited to rebuy the "Lord of the Rings" (Extended Edition) box set on 4K Blu-ray?ĭon't hold your breath.
