WIN HD is an Australian television channel, owned by WIN Corporation, that originally launched on 17 March 2008. WIN HD broadcast breakaway programming from 17 March 2008 until 3 August 2009. WIN HD fully ceased broadcasting on 26 September 2010 in its first run. The channel relaunched on 1 March 2016 as a 9HD affiliate and again on 1 July 2016 as a Ten HD affiliate.

During its time of breakaway broadcasting, WIN HD broadcast a range of programming, with exclusive transmissions on weekday and weekend afternoons, late on Sundays and weeknights, and Saturday nights. Approximately seven hours of exclusive programming was broadcast daily.

WIN HD was available exclusively in 1080i high definition from the network's four regional stations RTQ Queensland, WIN Southern New South Wales, VTV Victoria and TVT Tasmania.

On 10 February 2016, WIN announced it would launch its own HD simulcast in the coming months. It was later confirmed the HD simulcast would be titled WIN HD and would launch on 1 March 2016. Four WIN regions were excluded from the 1 March launch date. Griffith, Tasmania, and Eastern South Australia did not receive the channel until 2 March 2016 due to technical issues. In addition, the Regional WA station did not launch the channel until 10 March 2016. With the change in regional affiliation between WIN and Nine Network, from 1 July 2016 WIN HD was changed to a regional affiliate of Ten HD in all WIN markets.
