HDR10

The baseline HDR format with fixed metadata; HDR10+ adds dynamic per-scene metadata.

Also known as: HDR10+ HDR10+ Adaptive

Full Definition & Technical Explanation

HDR10 is the most common HDR standard, using static metadata (same brightness map for the whole video). It is free and supported everywhere — but less precise than dynamic formats.

HDR10+ adds dynamic scene-by-scene metadata, competing with Dolby Vision. Look for HDR Support: Yes, Dolby Vision / HDR10 in phone display specs.
