Setting the picture quality on Amazon Prime

Amazon Prime offers you a wide range of movies, series and documentaries. In order to enjoy the viewing experience properly, it is important to focus on the appropriate picture quality setting.

Can you adjust the quality on Amazon Prime?

If you like to watch old series and movies, it can be useful if you can adjust the picture quality to your TV.

1. At the moment, Amazon Prime does not offer you to directly adjust the picture quality. This is mainly because the quality is dependent on the streaming speed.
2. This means that Amazon always sets the best possible quality, which is accordingly dependent on your Internet speed.
3. Eventually, you have the option to make settings directly on your TV, smartphone or PC.
4. On your TV, you can adjust both the picture quality and the color scheme to the content under "Settings", as well as on your PC.
5. On the smartphone, you can directly adjust the quality of the stream by selecting from the options "Best", "Better" and "Good".
6. Even with old movies and series, the setting "Good" is often sufficient to achieve a good picture including appropriate speed.

You often experience poor quality?

A problem that occurs not only with Amazon, but with all streaming services, is that the speed of your connection can provide a significant loss of quality. Restart your router and check the internet speed - only with fast internet you can enjoy streaming from Amazon Prime Video even in full HD or 4K.
