History

Historical Context

Dolby Vision, the first HDR format, launched in 2014 and quickly entered consumer TVs, debuting on Samsung’s 2015 QLED set. By the end of 2017 Dolby reported over 30 million Vision-enabled devices sold, spurred by partners like LG and Netflix. Building on that growth, Dolby announced Dolby Vision 2 on 2 September 2025, with Hisense slated for the first over-the-air rollout in 2026.
