HDR on my Q80T is too dark no matter what the settings are. This happens on all HDR content, regardless of source. It is apparently common with thousands of customers. All other formats look great but this makes watching most TV about unusable with HDR which is now on with most NETFLIX, AMAZON ect. shows. I want to have Samsung simply have the user option to turn HDR OFF. Thousand of us want the same thing or boost the HDR content some other adaptable way.
Anyone know if SAMSUNG will fix this or spoken to them directly - really there are no user adjustments to fix this no matter what the settings...and without going into details, thousands of customers have tried every possible setting.
SAMSUNG PLEASE GET US SOME OPTIONS TO HELP MORE WITH PROBLEM WITH HDR!!
I also have a an Q80T and when watching NETFLEX or YouTube TV HDR is way too dark and complelyu unwatchable. All user setting have been tried in every possible way. Makes no difference if I you use SAMSUNG direct internet or FireStick connection, same thing. Everything looks great with just 4k or UHD content. A several thousand dollar tv should not do this and my older Samsung was way better conmpared to this messed up HDR mod and latest firmware makes no difference either. So many others folks seem to have this problem and not a single work for Samsung support about this and am told that "this is just the way it is" and a broadcaster problem for the creators of HDR content. So why doesn't Samsung just have an option to turn off HDR in some way or just at the HDMI source or go just do SD/HD or just 4k with no HDR until whoever has this problem fixes it. Has anyone else had any feedback from Samsung about this?
Having the same problem with my brand new tv, I was able to get it less darker rising the shadow detail setting but now the dark areas seem pixeled or off, that shouldn't be like that.
I have this same problem. Brand new Q70T. Dark scenes are impossible to watch. I hate this TV. It has soooo many issues with other electronics. It actually makes my other devices worse. I would return it if I could, but unfortunately I am just barely outside of the 15-day window. I've spent hours with Samsung support unplugging and replugging in devices. Try this, try that. It's a waste of time. My only hope is that someone from Samsung will read this thread and allow me to make an open box return. Not counting on it though. They were no help on the phone.
