Windows computers need at least a seventh-generation Intel Core i3, i5, or i7 processor or newer, or an Nvidia GPU with HDCP 2.2 support, while Mac devices must have been manufactured in 2018 or later and have the Apple T2 Security chip on board. If you’re using the app for Windows, on the other hand, you’ll need to make sure you have the one made specifically for the latest iteration of the OS. Older ones don’t support Netflix Ultra HD- neither do other browsers such as Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox.
On the software side of things, if you’re streaming from the web, you’ll need the latest versions of Microsoft Edge (if you’re on Windows) or Safari (if you’re on MacOS).
These specs should be easy enough to check on your TV set (just google the manufacturer and model of your device), but it’s not quite so straightforward on a laptop or desktop computer. This will unequivocally be a television or a computer monitor, as the small screens on phones, tablets, and smart displays are just not big enough to do justice to this resolution.
To take advantage of everything your Premium Netflix subscription has to offer, you need a screen capable and set to handle Ultra HD, and a refresh rate of at least 60Hz.

This will force Netflix to serve up Ultra HD content on supported devices, even if it causes more buffering. There, click on Change (right next to the Playback settings option), and set the Data usage per screen to High. On the web, go to Account by hovering over your avatar, then scroll down to Profile & Parental Controls. You can make sure Netflix is serving up video at the maximum resolution by tweaking your playback settings.
