Both me and my mother (who also has a Fairphone 5) only get 480p (SD) in the mobile Netflix app. In the app it says there is only widevine L3 support. But when I look in an app called “DRM info” it states the Fairphone 5 has L1 wich should permit hdr and full HD, and higher bitrates. It might be be…

Solved with this update, however for me only after deinstalling and reinstalling the App [image] Software Update: FP5.TT3Y.A.127.20231122 The Products Security patch level: 5 November 2023. Update size: 96.00 MB Apart from other things, this update addresses double tap …

On my FP5 it’s same. I agree that missing Netflix support for Qualcomm QCM6490 should be the reason.

I can’t confirm this. Netflix looks perfectly sharp on my FP5. I don’t know where I can see which resolution it actually is, but even movie end credits are readable and don’t seem fuzzy. Are your sure that you don’t have any mobile data savers activated in Netflix’s settings?

I dont read that someone stated it isnt sharp? The setting is def saying this [Screenshot_20231022-214230]

In FP4 ist Max Resolution Füll HD in my FP5 IT IS also only SD, lets wait for the next Netflix Update, maybe WE could Set IT as Feedback at Google Playstore

Don’t know if it’s helpful, since I have a FP4. But here on Reddit they solved by clearing cache and app data, then log in again. https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/kzojbc/widevine_is_l1_but_netflix_app_says_its_l3/ It was for OnePlus devices, but you could give it a try.
