"In 2026, HDR10 is considered the baseline HDR format for nearly all TVs. It debuted a decade ago and is an open standard supported by virtually every HDR-capable TV. Since HDR10 was the first widely supported HDR format, most HDR content is delivered in HDR10. Even when content is available in HDR10+ or Dolby Vision, it is typically also offered in HDR10."
"The main thing to know about HDR10 is that it uses static metadata, rather than dynamic. It does not adjust the picture on a scene-by-scene basis. Instead, the static metadata is applied once to an entire movie or show, so your TV uses a single set of brightness and color limits for the full runtime. As a result, picture quality depends heavily on your TV and its tone-mapping capabilities."
HDR10 serves as the baseline HDR format on nearly all modern TVs and uses static metadata applied once for an entire movie or show. HDR10+ and Dolby Vision use dynamic metadata that adjusts brightness and color on a scene-by-scene basis, yielding more accurate tone mapping for bright or dark scenes. Because most content is delivered in HDR10, TVs must rely on their own tone-mapping performance to interpret static HDR10 metadata. TVs that support both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision maximize compatibility and deliver the most consistent scene-by-scene image optimization across supported content.
