MacOS Big Sur might be a worthwhile upgrade if you love to marathon TV programs. As 9to5Mac reports, users have found that Safari in Big Sur will play Netflix videos in 4K with HDR, whether youre utilizing Dolby Vision or HDR10. You wont have to switch to another web browser simply to see more than a plain 1080p image. The upgrade comes thanks to long-expected assistance for HEVC in Apples web browser.
Youll have to be picky about your choice of Mac if you desire the complete result, either with the Big Sur beta or the completed release this fall. HDR is currently just supported with 2018 or later on MacBook Pro designs, 2018 or later on Mac mini systems, the iMac Pro or the Mac Pro. Youll need an HDR-capable display for the Mac mini and Mac Pro, too.
