Google Has Started Rolling Out HDR Youtube Support For Smartphones by rammyblog: 8:21am On Sep 11, 2017
Google has started rolling out support for HDR videos in the mobile version of the Youtube app. It has been confirmed that the update is out already and it offers you a HDR playback up to 1080p resolution and 60fps when you manually change the video quality.

Dear Confused,
HDR stands for High Dynamic Range imaging, and it's an old photography practice recently introduced to camera phones like the iPhone and some Android devices (or with the use of special apps). It's supposed to make your pictures look better, but it depends on when you use it.
Google being renowned for launching updates like this quietly did the same on the HDR Youtube support for smartphones which was confirmed by some reports on Reddits .

Though, Youtube added support for HDR video playback in November 2016, but Google has failed to roll it out to various smartphones that offer HDR screen. HDR support is available on Galaxy S8, Note 8, Pixel, LG V30 and Xperia XZ Premium.

From the above, it is logical that Google would opt for building smartphones with support for higher quality video format in the near future.

What do you think of this update? Is it just going be one of those boring Google updates? or it would lit up your Youtube experience
