Google Photos will soon show off a big improvement in photo quality when Ultra HDR is rolled out.
Images in HDR will look much better in Google Photos than those using SDR or Standard Dynamic RangeUltra HDR adds an extra layer of information called a"gain map" to a standard JPEG image
. The improvement in the quality of a photo in Ultra HD is said to be the same as watching television in standard SDR and improving it to Ultra HD. Since existing apps will be able to process and display Ultra HD pictures as though they were normal JPEGs, users can take photos using Ultra HD and share them without having to worry about whether other people could show them.
Ultra HDR is backward compatible which means photos shot using this feature will still be able to appear on apps that don't support the latest standard. However, on such apps the images will show up in SDR only. And you can look at the embedded image above to see the difference in photo quality. While the code strings appear in the aforementioned version of the Google Photos app, Google will still have to activate the update to make the Google Photos app support Ultra HDR. We'd expect that update to quietly take place just a little before
