Make sure that you're watching DAZN in the highest quality possible.
You should get the best quality automatically, but if things don’t look as good as you expect, this guide may help.
Follow each of the steps below. If you make any changes, stop and check to see if it made a difference before moving on.
1. Check the DAZN video quality label
Each DAZN event and match has a details page that includes video quality labels indicating the resolution available on your device.
| Resolution (Image Detail) |
|---|
| 1080p (Full HD): The highest resolution available on DAZN currently. |
| 720p (HD): High-definition resolution, commonly available on most devices. |
| Dynamic Range: Some devices may support HDR for an enhanced viewing experience. |
Some devices might not always stream in Full HD (1080p) even if supported, especially when using low-power modes or cellular connections.
2. Check your subscription plan
DAZN provides the highest available quality based on your device, internet speed, and subscription plan.
- Some older plans may not support Full HD streaming on all devices.
- Check DAZN’s official website to verify if your plan allows for 1080p streaming.
3. Check your internet speed
DAZN automatically adjusts the video quality based on your connection speed. If streaming issues occur, test your internet speed:
| Minimum speed required | Recommended for |
|---|---|
| 2.0 Mbps | Standard Definition (SD) |
| 3.5 Mbps | High Definition (HD - 720p) |
| 6.0 Mbps | Full HD (1080p) |
| 8.0 Mbps+ | Best quality with minimal buffering |
- Wired connections (Ethernet) provide a more stable experience than Wi-Fi.
- If speeds fluctuate, try restarting your router or reducing other network usage.
4. Check your device compatibility
To get the best video quality, your device must support Full HD (1080p) streaming.
- Ensure your smart TV, streaming stick, console, or mobile device is running the latest software.
- If using external devices (e.g., Chromecast, Apple TV, Fire Stick), make sure they support Full HD playback.
5. Select the right stream
Most sports events on DAZN are available in HD (720p) or Full HD (1080p).
- Check event details before streaming to confirm the highest available resolution.
- If your stream starts in lower quality, allow it to adjust automatically or restart the stream.
6. Check your account settings
While DAZN automatically selects the highest quality, some settings may affect video playback.
If you've followed all of the steps and still aren't getting the video quality you think you should, contact your device manufacturer.
