HDR10+ Support on Samsung KS8000 (2016 models)

[Harlow Quinn]

I feel even worse. Have been purchasing Samsung TVs and Home Theater products exclusively for over 10 years and currently have a KS8000 and 8500, as well as 3 other sets (2 older 1 newer). I feel cheated for supporting a company so loyally only to be deceived in terms of future hopes for my porducts.

I feel you; I've been calling Samung every week since June trying to figure this thing out and they finally get back to me only to tell me that they never announced the HDR10+ update. So not only are they belittling me, they are also outright lying; very dissapointed and frustrated by Samsung.

I will not be buying Samsung ever again, period. I will look into taking them to court as well, I have a few laywer friends and they think I have an easy case here. Thankfully I screenshotted the announcement before they took it down from their website.

they told you they never announced an update? well...its very interesting. Can someone from Samsung support can clear this up? are we getting update or not?

I would like to know as well since I have the ks8000 to and is very disappointed. This was my first time going into a Samsung brand and I will never buy a new product from them if they do this!

i have installed this update, because im live in Russia and update is available here, but i cant test any hdr10+ content, because i dont have a Prime subscription or HDR10+ videos to test on my TV. I called Samsung support and asked them about whats new in this upgrade and im asked if HDR10+ added. They told me - updates dont alter or add new features in TV and they know nothing about HDR10+. And also they told me all updates just fixing previous bugs and nothing more. Can you comment or elaborate on that? thank you!

The update has only been released in the UK so far. We should get it in America soon.

I tried to Prime but I don't think there's any way to confirm HDR10plus.
