Does YouTube Premium support 4K video streaming?

YouTube Premium itself does not specifically provide 4K video streaming as a separate feature. However, the ability to watch videos in 4K resolution depends on the content available and the device you are using. Here's how 4K video streaming works with YouTube Premium:

1. **Content Quality:** Whether you can watch videos in 4K resolution depends on the resolution in which the content was uploaded by the creator. Many creators upload videos in 4K, but the availability of 4K resolution also depends on the specific video.

2. **Device Compatibility:** You need a compatible device that supports 4K resolution to view videos in 4K. This includes certain smart TVs, 4K monitors, and streaming devices.

3. **YouTube App and Browser:** You can stream 4K videos using the YouTube app on supported devices or through a web browser that supports 4K playback.

4. **Subscription Benefits:** YouTube Premium's benefits, such as ad-free viewing and offline playback, apply regardless of the video resolution. The resolution of the video itself is determined by the content and device capabilities rather than the subscription.

To summarize, while YouTube Premium enhances the viewing experience with ad-free content and offline access, 4K streaming is dependent on the content's resolution and the capabilities of your viewing device.
