HDR has been a standard feature of new TVs for years now, and you'd be hard pressed to find many 4K TVs that don't support HDR on retail shelves. But even as Netflix, Amazon, Disney+, HBO Max, and others have rolled out HDR support for some content, Hulu, well, hasn't. That finally changed, with a support page on Hulu's website announcing HDR support for select shows and devices.

These are the devices on which Hulu says it now offers HDR streaming:

  • Roku (HDR compatible models)
  • Fire TV, Fire TV Stick, Fire TV Cube devices (HDR compatible models with Fire OS 7 or later)
  • Apple TV 4K (Gen 5 or later)
  • Vizio (HDR compatible models)
  • Chromecast Ultra (HDR-compatible models)

Hulu says that the supported formats include HDR-10, HDR-10+, and Dolby Vision. Content that supports HDR will sport a special badge so viewers can know what they're getting.
