About

Color depth fingerprinting detects bits-per-pixel color representation capabilities via screen.colorDepth and screen.pixelDepth. Modern displays typically report 24-bit (16.7M colors) or 30-bit (1.07B colors, HDR displays), while older or low-end displays may report 16-bit (65K colors). Tor Browser standardizes this to 8-bit for anonymity, making 8-bit color depth a strong privacy browser indicator. Professional displays with 10-bit color depth (30-bit total) indicate high-end hardware used by photographers, video editors, and designers. This metric rarely changes without hardware replacement, providing stable fingerprinting entropy.

Use Cases

•Display quality
•Professional hardware detection
•Privacy browser identification
•HDR capability
