So f'ing tired of broadcasters still shooting in 720 or 1080. Even for what is expected to be the most watched TV event of all time.
Can I watch Super Bowl 58 in 4K?
Yes, you can, sort of.
CBS has confirmed that it will be the first network to offer both a 1080p and a 4K version with HDR (High Dynamic Range) support, which should provide an even better visual experience if your TV supports those formats
However, the
TV Answer Man website has confirmed that the
4K HDR version won't be a native stream but will be upscaled from its 1080p HDR broadcast. Still, the 4K HDR version should look better than the 1080p HDR edition.
Who is showing Super Bowl LVIII in 4K HDR?
According to the TV Answer Man site, a number of cable, satellite, and internet-based TV services will show the game with its 4K HDR resolution. They include DIRECTV, DIRECTV Stream, Fubo, Optimum TV, Cox Cable, Dish, Comcast, Verizon, and YouTube TV.
For cord-cutting streamers who don't have a cable or satellite subscription,
FuboTV is your best bet to watch the game in 4K HDR. You can access its service with a seven-day free trial.
YouTube TV also has a free trial, but unfortunately, it only offers 4K support with a paid add-on.
The game will also be live-streamed on the Paramount+ streaming service, but for some reason, it will only have the 1080p HDR stream. People who use Charter Spectrum's cable TV service are also stuck with 1080p HDR.
