I’m finally streaming Netflix in 4K on Chrome — here’s how you can too

Netflix has started offering 4K streaming on Google Chrome. The feature was previously only available on Microsoft Edge and Safari. To access 4K streaming on Chrome, users need to have Chrome version 117 or later and a compatible device, which according to TechSpot, includes Windows PCs and Chromebook devices, but not Macs.

According to Android Authority, the author had previously struggled to watch Netflix in 4K on Chrome, having to switch to Microsoft Edge on their Windows PC or Safari on their MacBook. The update to Netflix's browser support documentation lists Chrome as a browser capable of streaming shows in Ultra HD (2160p) resolution.

The Premium plan, which costs $17 is not mentioned but $27 per month in the US, is required for 4K streaming. This means that not all users will be able to access the feature, even on Chrome.
