It's always impressive to see just how much of an improvement HDR is. You don't notice it as much without this kind of comparison; it's easy to take for granted.
heres a thought, i dont see much difference and yes i have 1100 nit hdr display mini led and oled one. i love hdr myself, but more i see of it and watch is it not same as sdr just brightness settings changed, like couldnt u tune sdr to look same as hdr? i mean obv theres differences but is it so much u need pay 1000s more for good hdr? i mean all i see it do is make dark darker brighter brighter in wicxh u could do in sdr... ray tracing however is a total change of image and lighting, idk what im trying to say... i have great hdr screens and i love em but sometimes feel like am i really seeing better or have i trauined my mind to see it look better cause i spents 1000s
The more you pay, the better HDR you get. But the LG C series is a great starting point for the fact that it is a "budget" OLED that has great HDR, even if it's not 1500 nits.
@@djbpresents9584 It's not a screen issue, but it's still a fact the 0 nits of an OLED and individually lit pixels does a fantastic job of HDR, and then from there it's about how bright you can go. From there, it's not a display issue but an issue of not appreciating the detailed subtlety of HDR, which is fair because it's difficult to quantify without being told what to look for which can also cause it to be undervalued. Also, poor HDR calibration can make things look washed out.
HDR includes a much broader color space not just contrast, most games have DCI-P3 which is a big improvement over SDR already with some even featuring Rec. 2020 which is just breathtaking combined with life-like highlights.
There's no way that anyone watches this and think that sdr actually looks like this. The greenish grey borders on top of the green washed out picture is a dead giveaway of either a bad capture or deliberate sabotage for engagement purposes.
I'm a fan of this channel but I noticed that too. It looks like there was only an HDR capture that was then converted to Rec.709 in post, NOT actually captured in SDR from the game.
@@JeffroTV what the heck are you talking about you can clearly see the difference in highlights and shadows on the hdr side with much more details lol. OP even said he increased brightness of hdr side to 80 to match overall brightness of sdr. hdr is clearly superior when implemented well as in this case.
@@ViktorVelkov Playing this game, or any game in SDR doesn't make the game look like that at all. Just look at it. Not even an 80 dollar TV will make the game look that bad. Use some common sense. Put on the game yourself and compare the HDR picture to the SDR one
This is complete lie. Sdr doesnt look like this. Played it on both sdr and hdr. And sdr doesnt look at all like this. Almost like bro is sabotaging things
i have to say, for a lot of these scenes the SDR looks better... HDR seems to not have a lot of the fog , and much less shadows in some places where they looked good before.
Finally a game where we need to raise the blacks in HDR instead of lowering them! And a good game at that! Enjoy! It looks fantastic to me on an LG C1 OLED display with the default contrast setting and brightness set to 60, peak Nits set to 797 and paper white set to approximately 300/600.
You display may accept an hdr signal but a lot of displays aren’t suitable for good hdr. If it lacks any local dimming or isn’t an oled it won’t look too good.
Please watch on a HDR capable Screen. I recorded the HDR part with brightness 80 and contrast on default. It seems this is the closest setting to SDR.
Is HDR already ready or still updating for RUclips as of 3hrs from upload time? Thx
@@AP-hn8wd It was HDR ready when I published the Video
bt 709, still for me.
@@British_Dragon-4K-Simulations The there is something wrong with your setup. I can watch this video on 3 PC's and 2 mobile phones in HDR.
@@GamingTech-RUclips
Maybe it is because I have RTX HDR turned on in the Nvidia Control Panel?

I just wish every game had this level of HDR
Far too many games still ship with with broken or lazy HDR
Crazy how good hdr looks

Sdr sieht besser aus
Yeah, I can't go back to SDR for games. The difference is massive when HDR is well implemented.
Also Auto HDR on windows 11 is a godsend for older games
HDR just makes my image much less contrastly any idea why? I've got HDR enabled on windows and in-game.

@@Tchoppr Yeah and the HDR side just looks like it was recorded in the dramatic contrast mode setting because that setting darkens the shadows
@@JeffroTV Right. You'd expect the HDR version to have brighter specular highlights but both versions are basically the same brightness.

Hang on, how am i seeing hdr colors without hdr display?

hdr wins.
SDR footage is displayed in the wrong gamma, it should be converted from sRGB to pure power 2.2 for parity.
Doesn't matter what gamma you put it in SDR will never come close to HDR.
@@IRaoulDuke But it won't look washed out.
Obviously I like the HDR, but I feel the gamma curve is a bit better in the SDR version.
I know its Ghost of T DC here, but can you please look at the new Starfield Patch if HDR is changed ? Should we still use FTDA on LG OLED ?
i have to say, for a lot of these scenes the SDR looks better... HDR seems to not have a lot of the fog , and much less shadows in some places where they looked good before.
It may be a fault of the video, but I'm seeing more banding on HDR than SDR.
UNDR A MIN GANG !1!1!1 AND FIRST COMMENT I TINK
Dramatic Contrast + 80 brightness is the best mix for this game
Looks stunning
This channel did a review on the HDR of this game, Dramatic Contrast makes it worse.
@@paul2609that is not what they said at all
80 brightness i lol

Watching this on my C3 Oled and....i dont see the difference.
Tbh i NEVER see the difference between hdr and sdr on any content
On games is cool. On movies I’m kinda getting tired of hdr, spectacular at times but very unnatural too.
I have a Sony X93L and the darks are tooo dark :(
Do find it a bit disappointing considering how colorful this game is, how little of the expanded color gamut it uses.
I use RTX Dynamic Vibrance. Intensity 60, Saturation boost 60.
Its looks like OLED vs VA
"HDR is superior over SDR" - no shit
Settings of your lg and in gsme please
HDR is awesome.
I notice even on a base PS4 the HDR looks more alive
using DTM or the HGiG?
HGIG
Why is my HDR dim
What model of TV do you have? And what are your Input Settings when running in HDR Mode? (Brightness/Backlight, Dynamic Tone Mapping, Contrast etc.)
You display may accept an hdr signal but a lot of displays aren’t suitable for good hdr. If it lacks any local dimming or isn’t an oled it won’t look too good.
Hdr seems more artificial
In isolation, sometimes it seems so, but this is not at all the case oftentimes.
are a lot of games that sdr is superior over hdr?
No
If the implementation is f**ked, then yeah base sdr is gonna be the only option.
HDR easiy win.
