Disney+ Adding Support for HDR10+

by

Streaming service Disney+ is set to gain support for HDR10+ in the near future, according to an announcement made at CES by HDR10+ Technologies (via MediaPlayNews). HDR10+ offers improved brightness and contrast compared to HDR10, and unlike Dolby Vision, there are no licensing fees.

Disney+ already supports HDR10 and Dolby Vision, but HDR10+ titles will be coming to the service in 2025. Dolby Vision and HDR10+ are similar, but some TV sets don't support Dolby Vision due to the licensing fees. Samsung TVs, for example, don't offer Dolby Vision content, so Samsung TV owners can look forward to better quality when streaming HDR10+ Disney+ content.

The latest Apple TV 4K supports HDR10+, as do Apple's newer iPhone and iPad models. Many streaming services also already offer HDR10+ content, including ‌Apple TV‌+, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, and YouTube.

Why? HDR10+ is just a generic, inferior imitation of Dolby Vision.

Also, Samsung should just start offering Dolby Vision on their TVs. It's insane that they refuse to pay the licensing fee. It's only like $3 per unit, which any reasonable customer would be willing to pay. It's a shame because Samsung's TVs are otherwise quite good. But their lack of Dolby Vision support is a massive dealbreaker. I, and many other potential customers, refuse to buy Samsung TVs due to their lack of Dolby Vision.
This. I'm done with Samsung TV's (I have two Sammie 4k's) switched to LG OLED G4 and not looking back!

Actually, it isn’t.
That's literally what HDR10+ is.

Its sole existence was to copy Dolby Vision.

wrong, im always on max brightness, and HDR on disneyplus looks so dark on iPhones, if I put it into low power mode it fixes it, no way it should be that dark, I have a oled LG G3 and trust me it isnt meant to be dark, its an issue with the app and even the Apple TV app it doesnt allow HDR to use the extra brightness, I also tune and calibrate tvs for years
You probably have your LG G3 set to an uncalibrated "vivid" mode or something, thus twisting your perception.

iOS's HDR is quite accurate. A calibrated LG G3 should look quite similar to an iPhone when playing HDR content.

It clearly says why in the article. And "inferior" is your opinion.
