Because x265 and 10-bit depth require more processing power, you may need specific software or hardware to play them smoothly. :
Counterintuitively, encoding video in 10-bit color often results in a smaller file size than an equivalent 8-bit encode. Because the encoder has access to a more precise color palette, it does not have to waste data applying "dithering" (the injection of random noise used to mask color banding). The x265 encoder can calculate motion vectors and image blocks more smoothly, leading to cleaner compression passes.
