Summary
Netflix has enabled 4K playback in Google Chrome, expanding web access to higher-resolution streaming beyond its previously limited browser support.
Windows 11 PCs and Chromebooks qualify, but Windows 10, macOS and Linux still cannot stream Netflix in 4K through Chrome.
Intel 7th Gen or newer and AMD Ryzen systems are supported on Windows, with Nvidia GTX 1050 or AMD Radeon RX 400-series graphics, plus HEVC support and updated drivers potentially required.
Edge on Windows and Safari on macOS already support Netflix 4K on the web, leaving Chrome's update as a narrower catch-up move rather than universal browser support.
