If you have fast enough internet and a compatible TV or streamer, you can watch certain Euros football games in 4K Ultra HD video quality<\/b>
\nThe European Championship tournament is finally here \u2013 making it Euro 2021 really \u2013 and you can watch selected games in 4K Ultra HD quality in the UK via BBC iPlayer, including England vs Ukraine. Here\u2019s which games have been chosen and what hardware and software you need to see those crisp blades of grass on the pitch. You can also watch Wimbledon in 4K Ultra HD. Despite years of trials, neither the BBC (nor ITV) are broadcasting in native 4K resolution. That’s a shame, but you can still watch the Euros in Ultra HD (another way of saying 4K) thanks to the BBC iPlayer app. You\u2019ll need a compatible TV or streaming device and a fast enough internet connection. First of all, check your wired or wireless internet speed is at least 24Mbps for the full 3840p or 12Mbps for 2560p. BBC also says \u201cFor the full effect, you’ll need an HDR TV that supports HLG.\u201d with HLG (hybrid log gamma) being the standard of HDR the iPlayer is using. Check your TV specs to see if it\u2019s supported. More importantly, you\u2019ll need a compatible device to watch UHD streams on iPlayer. There are far too many to list here so head to the BBC site and search for your TV or streamer model. Supported TVs include Samsung, LG, Philips, Sony, Hisense, Panasonic and more. Streamers include Amazon Fire TV, Humax, Netgem, Roku and Virgin Media. Note that Sky Q is not supported. Once you open the iPlayer on a compatible device, check the video quality is set to \u2018Best Quality\u2019 in the settings menu. Remember that if you\u2019re watching outside the UK then you can use a VPN (virtual private network) to make your device browse from a UK IP address and still use the iPlayer. We recommend NordVPN but you can check out our Best VPN chart for more options. Here\u2019s the full list of games the BBC is showing in Ultra HD on the iPlayer for Euro 2021.<\/p>\n
