Nobody has an idea when the coronavirus pandemic will end, or what lays ahead of us, but one thing’s for sure: Netflix seems to be gradually upping its streaming quality in Europe back to 4K. Whew, what a huge relief that nobody will have to endure sub-par viewing experiences any longer.
Back in March, the streaming giant announced it was temporarily lowering bitrates across the continent to comply with requests by the European Commission to reduce stress on Europe‘s internet infrastructure. But according to Gizmodo UK, users are now reporting that streaming quality is back up to 4K HDR and up to 15 Mb/s bitrate, which hasn’t be the case for at least two months.
