Switch 2 doesn't recognize HDR TV

[Klytus]

I have a Switch 2 connected to a 55" QLED Q7F. Looks fine, but when I attempt to adjust the HDR settings on the Switch 2, I'm told, "The connected TV either doesn't support HDR or HDR support is turned off."

I also noticed in a particular game (Kunitsu-Gami) that the HDR option is grayed out.

Am I missing something? Other than turning on HDR+, my TV doesn't seem to have any specific HDR settings.

Hi, i read that the switch 2 is having issues with some samsung tvs it said it was on nintendo's end but i could be wrong

How is the switch 2 by the way

Pretty good overall. Not as exciting as the jump from Wii U to Switch, but a welcome upgrade across the board. Still disappointed in the system's sound options, but that's a question for another thread.

I had the same problem (55” Q7F from 2018) but figured it out. Go to Settings > General > External Device Manager > HDMI UHD Color and activate whichever HDMI port your Switch 2 is connected to. Once I did this, the Switch 2 recognized that my TV was HDR-capable and allowed me to adjust the HDR settings. Hope that helps!
