4K has become a more common TV feature. 4K and HDR-compatible displays can be found in almost every budget. This helps put 4K content in high demand, but unfortunately, it isn't available on every streaming service.

4K has replaced the HD resolution standards, including 1080p and 720p, as the top standard on most TVs sold now. 4K refers to display resolutions of either 4096x2160 or 3840x2160 pixels and produces visuals with exceptional detail. 4K is often paired with HDR, or High Dynamic Range, which gives those detailed visuals increased color options and contrasts.

If you're in the market for a new TV or streaming device, you should make sure it's ready for 4K and HDR. If your setup is ready, all you need is 4K content.

Fubo TV is a live streaming service that focuses on sports, but also has a wide variety of entertainment channels in both of its package options. Sports events, like the World Cup, have been a big part of the early events made available live and in 4K. Does that make this service a perfect pair for your 4K HDR media setup?
