If you wanted to watch HDR or HD content on Netflix on some of the newer Pixel devices, your wait is over. The streaming service has officially added the Pixel 6, 6 Pro, and the 5A to its list of devices that support HDR and HD streaming. The update to its support pages seems to have happened sometime after January 14. 

It isn't clear why Netflix hasn't added the Pixel 6 lineup to these lists earlier. But The Verge noted that some users were reporting on Reddit that their phones couldn't play HDR content properly, while it worked fine for others. Perhaps that was a problem they wanted to address first. Hopefully, it works fine for everyone now.
