Android 16 lets you take proper screenshots of your beautiful HDR photos

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Android 16 is implementing support for true HDR screenshots, enabling you to take screenshots of HDR content. This capability is live in Android 16 Beta 2 and builds upon the previous work that Google did to support HDR in Android screenshots.
