I've NEVER seen HDR OFF looking like that, something is odd there.
I have just got a really great monitor and the hdr version looked terrible.
It's most likely that HDR is enbaled in-game and not on the monitor. HDR video viewed in SDR makes the color look oversaturated at best and blasted out at worst.
Because it never looks like that.
nope
he oversaturated the image
Man I thought my tv had bad hdr or something. It makes everything look less colorful and dim lol
Exactly 😅 it doesn't look that bright but is more realistic 👍
because is a shitty HDR. You need a decent HDR so it maintains color accuracy.
@@neikory wrong, it looks like you don't understand how HDR works. It's all about color calibration to make games look more realistic 👌
@Junior Castro dude 😂 HDR shouldn't look washed out, if it looks washed out, it means that the color accuracy of the monitor is not hitting the target. HDR is rich in contrast as it needs to be able to display deep blacks and bright white without loosing detail, only this fact means that the image can't look washed out. Now colours are of a bigger gamut as well.
@@neikory exactly 💯 👏 you are completely correct. But let me explain 🤔 what you're missing. HDR focuses on giving you the most realistic experience in gaming and movies. In real life what does colors need to look bright and colorful? LIGHT. So if you're playing COD, Fortnite or whatever game and you're in a room where there's no light just a bit, colors will look dark or dim but you can still enjoy high definition details 😉 look go into your bedroom turn off the light but open a little bit of you window 🪟 how colors will look without enough light? This is what this technology does. Same thing with dolby atmos, it moves the sound where the object is moving. I've had a Samsung QLED TV 4K at 60hz refresh rate that supports HDR10 for almost 4 years now and I never have enjoyed this technology because I've been playing on my PS4 for the past decade 😅 but when I got my Xbox Series X 👏 my man I was amazed 😳 at the huge difference 😢 and I still have to upgrade my TV because the Xbox series X supports 120hz in 4k with (Dolby Vision) which is better than HDR10 & HDR10+. Right now only Sony and LG has these TVs that support (Dolby Vision) and the Xbox is the only console that supports Dolby Vision. 😀
Bottom clip has the color saturation turned all the way up. Colors probably set on vivid. Horribly innacurate. Her skin as orange as her hair which as orange as the leaves which is as orange as the sun. HDR should always be brighter than SDR. Theres just so much misinformation i cant stop commenting how much is wrong with this video 😅
ikr the sun is blinding me on the bottom clip but the sun in top clip isnt blinding me like real life and the colours in the bottom one are horrible. im confused as to why alienware top dog monitor is only HDR400 but i guess its for more natural look for movies and desktop and gaming rather than vibrant coloured which is good for me because i want realistic as fuck when gaming. i aint playing no games made with paint like fortnite lol
Yeah this is a really stupid video
It's probably meant to confuse you to get views
If the Alienware monitor is OLED, then the reason is that most manufacturers set HDR on low brightness in order to prevent the "burn-in" effect on the screen
I have the game... And i tought no hdr was top one, why ? Cuz i have no fking hdr and thats what mine looks like XD.
This guy is a fking clown for spreading such fake info
This is absolutely and grossly misrepresenting the difference between SDR and HDR. The image should look mostly identical, just with additional detail in highlights and shadows and brighter highlights, as well as finer colors (as in smoother gradients, not more - or less - saturation). Something's very wrong here, because here the supposed SDR image is blown and oversaturated, while the supposed HDR image is very dull.
Yeah I don't have HDR on and it looks way more like the top one. The bottom isn't even close to be calibrated correctly. I hate these comparisons. When my non hdr content is calibrated correctly, it looks ugly with HDR on(probably not true hdr but not sure how common real hdr equipment is)
Like I mentioned, when both your SDR and HDR are set up properly, there really shouldn't be much of a difference noticeable between the two except for things that are pretty hard to capture in an SDR video or screenshot in the first place (brighter and less blown highlights, improved shadow detail).
I can almost guarantee this person is forcing his tv to use DCI or BT 2020 colorspace for the sdr content when it should be rec.709/BT709. Quantum tv back in the day was telling people to use DCI for sdr content showing how "good" it made spiderman look. Then he made another video trying to justify his claim using Horizon Zero Dawn saying that the sdr is better which ironically is the same game used in this video.
Quantum TV also made a whole bunch of ridiculous claims saying that hdr isn't real. He's changed since then growing into a tech reviewer, but I don't get why he still has those crazy videos up?
@@fall-neckthetallneck2977 (Trolling and/or baiting for engagement would be my guess.)
@@fall-neckthetallneck2977 OK, that Quantum guy is either a troll or a complete idiot, but either way, his videos about HDR are horrible garbage (even current ones). Jesus Christ...
This is such a poor representation as to what HDR actually is and looks like. Your display is clearly not made for HDR if the colors and lighting become that muted. Or your settings are absolutely askewed. HDR is darker darks, Brighter brights, And enhanced color space. Image shouldnt change very much other than contrast and maybe brighter colors. Your display should get to AT LEAST 600 nits if you actually want to utilize HDR. 1000 nits is better. Its way better on TVs as TVs are usually higher brightness than almost all moniters.
😊
No. This is actually what Horizon Zero Dawn actually looks like with HDR ON. Maybe its the game but overall with my PS5 connected to my monitor with HDR on it looks gray awful
We are watching all of this in SDR but that being said, the “HDR off” in this case looks way over saturated for some reason which looks terrible.
@@sawdust8691 broken link
@Vancha March ruclips.net/video/cD8pRqx5y1E/видео.html
Here's a new one. You can still see the difference on an SDR screen. But you still aren't getting the full HDR effect unless you play it on a HDR capable display from the source.
@@Vancha112 RIP
On my Monitor Horizon Zero Dawn wasn't like this without HDR. Lmao this is BS. There is no way that Horizon is this stupidly oversaturated in SDR.
@Flocke Locke someone in a different thread pointed out that it's probably over saturated due to an error while recording on PC.
But still, that makes this comparison worse than useless. In reality, HDR has more color as well as more detail and contrast range.
The top one looks like a properly calibrated CRT or Projector TV bottom looks like a tv straight out the box with contrast turned all the way up
But it looks better than calibrated
@@sklynexd calibration always look better than straight out the box when done correctly
@@sklynexd
No it doesn’t.
Wrong. A proper calibrated image should look like real life. I’ve never seen the real world look that dull and colorless during the day.
@@Vitorfernandes83 okay it looks like a properly calibrated TV in comparison to the other one.
This clip couldn't be further from the truth. Is this channel a scam?
Watching this on a 4K OLED tv screen, capable of HDR, I can confirm non of this is HDR.
Same! C1 and G3 and both are the same as you said.
What is hdr then ?
@@Jar4495 Basically, dark areas can get darker while preserving details and higher peak brightness as well. Colors are gonna pop more. If you have a standard gaming monitor, which most likely isn't OLED, and take a smartphone with OLED and watch the same HDR content side by side, you'll notice the difference straight away. Most smartphones these days have OLED screens.
@@Jar4495 HDR gives better colors with a wider range. And it displays contrast, brightness, and details much better.
Basically the image pops more in detail, color, highlights, etc and looks more lifelike. The difference can be quite noticeable.
This clip is supremely messed up. He has a bad recording or something. SDR should not look so oversaturated. It's so bad I'm not sure why the video was even put up.
And to see the full effect of HDR the content actually has to be mastered and displayed in HDR on an HDR display. This video isn't.
Though you can still see some HDR improvement in these comparisons even if you don't get the full effect. If the comparison wasn't totally messed up anyway.
If you want better comparisons look up the GamingTech channel.
The video itself is not hdr but the explanation is accurate.
Hdr doesnt just balance out the lighting it has a much wider range of colors
The editor of this video surely had fun lmao
You can't use the image for reference since it's not actually in HDR even when using an HDR monitor. It won't undersaturated images like in this example. In fact it has more colors.
HDR content converted to SDR naturally darkens the image. in actual HDR, it'd be at least as saturated as the bottom if not moreso.
@@scythelordthe bright pars would be brighter and the dark pars would be darker.
It also highly depends on how well HDR was implemented by the creators, how good the display you're using is and how you changed the parameters of the TV image quality (some TVs are correct out of the box, others need you to play around the settings).
extremely biased to use a pre-rendered non HDR cutscene to make such comparison. you should at least use an in-game moment, which has proper HDR implementation, to make a comparison. wouldn't make any sense to adopt a technology that make things look worse.
I feel like I've seen that clip before but the bottom was hdr😂
This video is showing an HDR clip on an SDR video.
Finally thank you! What a bunch of morons in the comments
Can you guess which clip has the color saturation set way too high?
@@JR-kx3jr brightness is even worse than saturation. The whites are bleeding into the picture.
HDR makes everything look better on my QD-OLED monitor.
Fr for me too
hdr off here looks awful and blinding
Same I like sdr than hdr

Here is a real comparison. This one is terrible.

@@ivanivan-io2gq
Have you ever seen HDR on a proper HDR display?
I am not claiming you would change your mind, just that you can't truly judge it otherwise.
Flashbang
This completely misinterprets HDR and SDR. The bottom clip has vivid colours while the top looks normal.
This is dumb. HDR is a pretty strange subject considering many monitors claim to have "HDR", but can only display an hdr signal and cant actually produce HDR content. For HDR to be effective you would need a display with many local dimming zones or an OLED panel so it can vary brightness to a greater degree. Believe me, once you get a display (tv or monitor) that can do true HDR it will blow you away.
These are flipped, top is what my tv monitor normally looks like, bottom is with it on
Then you don’t have a good tv. SDR looks better than both those images. HDR looks way better than both those images.
Honestly HDR has been the biggest graphical game changer as of late. It does way more for how a game looks than ray tracing. In games with HDR if you use SDR the game look really flat and boring in comparison. It was genuinely a wow moment when I got my OLED panel and played some HDR games on it, almost like the jump from 2D to 3D games. The colours were so punchy and stuff like lava and fire actually look how fire and lava should look, the contrast is insane. It’s a game changer for sure if you have a good monitor for it and the game has good HDR (most games do thankfully).
I like more in SDR for the luminence
Why?
Luminance is usually brighter in HDR.
But this instance is far better in SDR imo.
Unless he messed up something.
@@GameslordXY the luminance depends a lot on the nits that the panel being used can support, if a screen with infinite contrast is used, the luminance can be adapted to the view, but it always depends a lot on the type of screen, for example I have a panel screen Samsung 4k LCD, but it only supports 300 nits and I need to do magic to get the hdr to look good, otherwise the highlights look very dull, the dark areas look very good, but I would like a panel that has a good balance and not having to resort to qled or oled, most playstation games look great on my screen, xbox games look awful like red dead redemption 2
@@sagenarutoranmagremoryWell QLEDs droped in price dramaticaly.
And don't suffer from burn-in Like OLEDs.
I plan to get one in a 18-24 months at most.
Likely not the cheapest model.
By then I should be able to save up 700€-800€.
Purchase something really, really good and be happy for next 10 years or so.
Perhaps something that was upper midrange - high end in late 2022/early 2023.
That being said,I have seen 500€ LED TVs that had really nice picture(to me at least).
I am however open to LED as well.
OLED?
Not so much,but you never know.
If there was minimum 5 years warranty against Burn-In,I could be convinced.
@@GameslordXY The problem with burnouts is that they do not take care of the devices, we should not leave a fixed image on any screen for too long, it is like people who leave video game consoles in "suspend" mode, shortening the life expectancy of the device, I am saving for an Oled, since I imagine it is like a high-end cell phone, they have a longer life with the manufacturer
@@sagenarutoranmagremory leaving a single imagine on a screen for 10 hours a day is not going to cause burn in instantly, there’s no reason to be scared of it and freak out. It’s how long you use it over long periods of time. For example MMO games or RTS games with HUDs/mini maps on screen. Playing those games for 1K+ hours is what causes burn in. So just play different games and watch different content and you’ll be fine.
HDR looks awesome on OLED with the right settings.
how can i you the right setting
@@belowsir5222use a correct monitor and a cable that supports the bandwidth hdr requires
For all your HDR10 mostly doesn't look that good... Why? Cause you need an for example lg c1 tv or better lg g3 oled tv cause this one is actually 1400-1500nits and 1000nits is requiered to get an real HDR10 Picture
HDR has always looked gray to me.
It depends on the display. On my 400 nits LCD with poor tone mapping, the HDR image looks washed out and too dull, whereas on my 1500 nits S21Ultra, the same HDR content looks stunning (way better than the SDR in every way).
thats why i dont use it lol
@@PabloB888 you need to calibrate it in windows. My HDR 400 look good, and not washed out.
Cuz ur tv/monitor isnt capable of true HDR.
Then you probably don't have a good display for HDR and/or don't have it properly set up.
So wrong. When using HDR (High Dynamic Range) on your TV, the colors should appear brighter and more vibrant. To achieve the best HDR experience, it is important to enable specific features on your TV or monitor, such as HGIG (HDR Gaming Interest Group) mode. These features help optimize the HDR performance and ensure that you are getting the desired visual enhancements.
So you want oversaturated colors? 😂 Nah it just gives you difference between brightest and darkest areas. XD
@@YavNethis ain't true
i have a great monitor, when i turned hdr on it made all colors look slightly brighter for some reason... high dynamic my ass
You can actually see hdr on hdr screens thats why we have them, the kontrast is to deep for usual Displays and the output is not the same so thats why we have HDR to show the high kontrast image with les Detail los.
Ah yes. HDR. I and many of the wannabe experts in the comments watching this on their phone can tell which is HDR even when the video itself is not HDR enabled.
bro set the contrast to 200 😂😂
thanks sr2 for making me think orange is hdr on
The most (probably deliberate) misinformed video about HDR on the planet.
This reel doesn’t show true HDR. Use a 1000+ nits monitor/phone/tablet and watch an actual HDR video and you will be blown away
Most pc gamers will buy a monitor marketed hdr. Which can’t handle more than 400-500 nits and they wonder why hdr doesn’t look amazing.
HDR is impossible to explain in a video like this where it’s not supported
HDR makes it look like those depressing flashbacks fallen heroes have after a rough moment
Its exactly the opposite. The comments are bot generated and target specific people. No one is that stupid.
Bruh I have hdr on on my ps5 and it looks brownish and less vibrant
@@chrxs61632 u need an hdr400 screen man. i got a basic hdr monitor and it looks this bad but with an hdr 800 or 1k screen it looks like the bottom with hdr on.
@@slumy8195 if you looks like the bottom. Or top. You have a terrible tv.
HDR10 is worth it if you use your settings right. If you don't, your image will look terrible
Depends on your tv also and how your connecting them
HDR ON: Saturation 😢
HDF OFF: Saturation 😃
Me with my. PC ReShade:😢…..😂
Reshade is the goat
But Nvidia filtres is shit
I dislike the affects of HDR. I prefer more color pop in my playthroughs.
That's because you haven't see PROPER HDR in an OLED or Full array LED...IPS is terrible for HDR
You can still tweak HDR to be as colorful as you want. I set my HDR settings to be more saturated and I can‘t lie, I never want to go back to SDR…
I’ve been on a LG C2 playing games for a few months and decided to try HDR. It was broken on PC washes out whiteness to the image. Updated my windows to windows 11 and it looks amazing I’m never going back to SDR. I can’t believe I was missing out on this the whole time.
So you are too poor to afford proper HDR monitor
@@hevytheghost5233 lol ignorance is bliss. Color pop lol
You need to have a monitor with 1000 nit peak brightness to properly utilize HDR. 600 nit at minimum will get some benefit but not fully. You also need 10-bit or 8-bit + dithering color depth. Many monitors today advertise HDR simply for marketing purposes and they can process HDR, however they are most often not equipped enough to actually display it. If the monitor isn’t above at least 600 nits, it is incapable displaying HDR. I own a 1000 nit monitor 8-bit + dithering and HDR is way bright and more saturated than the SDR. It is really an impressive thing once you properly see it.
600 nits and 3,000 contrast ratio minimum for LEDs. For OLEDs 450 nits minimum since oled has i finite contrast so it compensates
Well tbh my „HDR 400“ monitor still looks way better with HDR enabled and set to my preferences. Can‘t go back to SDR after that.
@@Ham24brand not really. My tv is 800nits and it looks incredible. Even my old iPhone X was 800 nits and hdr demos on RUclips looked incredible back then.
@@Vitorfernandes83 800 nits definitely works. It just needs to be above 600nits to get anything that looks good. They make HDR monitors that only go to 400 nits, those are a scam and the HDR looks terrible on those because the monitor simply isn’t bright enough to do what it needs to do.
@@Vitorfernandes83 what? I am agreeing with you.
Even in a subpar HDR monitor I could even tell the difference from playing games with HDR. I just like the more contrast shadow details in HDR and the specular highlights. It really is an experience.
HDR example here is not good.., as HDR often gives more colour depth too, with lights / shadows
So I not only one with this problem, I found HDR setting, turning it on, kinda hurt my eye a little cause it waaaay to bright, turning it off, Without HDR look better, If you on Sony Bravia, would not recommend fully turn on HDR, not worth it, just turn on high resolution on your PS4/PS5 and put most of tv setting Auto and turn your brightness and sharpness max and bam it look getting better already so yeah just letting yall know
Just turn down the brightness when hdr is on bro
@POSTBOY
That literally one of them I try when HDR on, It still not good as without HDR, that why I suggest yall to use Without HDR cause it better that way,
Never turn sharpness on, let alone put it to the max, especially not in gaming. It leaves artifacts and weird shadows around moving objects, you should turn most settings off to have the best experience as is intended by the creator
@@PlaystationGamerZX it sounds like your tv doesn’t have hgig. It’s using dynamic range. I had the same issue on my old Sony tv. Almost damaged my eyes.
Wait did you just say SDR torn your brightness to max? What? On Sony TVs never go above 50 brightness. I was using 25 for SDR. 100 for hdr.
What did you say? Sharpness to max? Boy até are so confused. Do you even know what you’re saying?
@@postboy2242 no. HDR is mastered to be with max brightness max contrast. And supposed to be watched in a dark room. Just disable dinamic range hdr.
HDR off looks better :O
In fairness you're watching it on an SDR video. HDR in person is fantastic
@@nickindie4704 true
The top one is not HDR, it’s clearly fake. I have a 4K 55” HDR10+ Dolby vision tv, and all HDR films and games look like the bottom one, with 4K and HDR enabled. It looks like the top one when it’s turned off.
No sdr looks way to saturated
Are you even watching on an HDR monitor? That might be the problem.
You need to tune some of those colors down in the bottom. Your saturation and possibly a few other settings like even your brightness look as if they're jacked up to high.
The bottom is way too saturated and bright, turn off hdr and it looks worse than the top, this video is meant to trick you
Watching this in sdr and hdr still looks better 😂
because his hdr display is not good enough
This is not real HDR. I speak as an HDR user. From above, SDR, or uncalibrated HDR. The SDR is illuminated from below. If you sit with real HDR, you'll never want to go back to SDR again. It's like going back from a summer day to a cloudy, gray day, devoid of colors.
You kinda cheated since the video is HDR so the top is a SDR representation of HDR which almost always looks like shit. There are exceptions but they arent real HDR
You are not colorblind, just HDR+
Honestly HDR is not worth it. Even when trying to watch movies, it’s just way too dark. Sure you get SLIGHTLY more detail in the shadows, but that’s not enough of a justification for me
if its too dark, then your display isn't capable of getting bright enough to properly support HDR. aim for something with at least 1000 nits of brightness
No, get something with a sick FALD system or OLED. A Display can have 1500 nits but If it has bad contrast and trash edge lit dimming with 16 zones then it's trash HDR and just lasers your eyes.
@@flockelocke2297 I've come back to this and realize what the problem is. HDR10 is just garbage. HDR10+ is decent, but Dolby Vision is where it's really at
@@NoCluYT dark? What are you talking about. I have over 600 movies. A third is 4k Blu-ray’s and I can’t remember one single movie looking too dark on my oled tv.

@@VaydaladaVodalada yeah, it is. If hdr support is implemented, and you have an HDR compatible monitor, you will be able to make use of it. How is that not how it works?
@@Vancha112 that’s not how HDR works you nimrod. HDR requires a certain color depth from the screen along with a peak brightness in highlights.
You’re falling for fake HDR which is just a label on a box.
@@VaydaladaVodalada you don't know who you're talking to, but that's fine. I know how hdr works. If anything regarding my previous comment is unclear just let me know.
@@Vancha112 imagine doubling down on stupidity this hard
Some things it works well, like at the start where there is too much red/orange. But when she’s running through the trees and bushes, it certainly benefits to have more red/orange gleaming through those little spots the sun shines through the trees. It allows us to see more of what’s going on and doesn’t look so dull.
Pro tip: if your display doesnt support hdr it will look way worse than sdr
In no clip you can see hdr, that is like asking what clip is using color, when everyone uses black and white monitors. All you can see is a different saturation and not what hdr is all about.
Most mobile phone have HDR these days. Even on the low midrange ones 😘
@@cocobos Yes, but this video isn't in HDR so there's no way to see the difference.
Ya. This video is whack. Either Zero Dawn is just weird, or there are more settings changed between the two. This video shows nothing but over saturated colors in the SDR example.
@@sawdust8691do you have any good examples of hdr content on youtube on games?
@Halit Erdogan the channel Gaming Tech focuses on HDR games. If you're interested in settings and testing check him out.
HDR content on RUclips never looks as good. You need a good HDR display with proper settings to get the most out of it. And RUclips compresses video. So HDR will always look better in person from the source.
You may see a bit of difference in HDR youtube videos, but it won't look as good as in person.
To see what you can with RUclips, you need a real HDR video. Which this video is not. And watch it on an HDR capable display. Which if you are on a phone probably doesn't have HDR. And you need to find a good example, which this isn't. He totally changed the settings a lot for some reason.
This video shows a side by side comparison in Avengers Endgame. It still won't look as good since it's not an HDR video, but you can still see some difference. More contrast, brighter highlights, more detail and color. Same in games. ruclips.net/video/suWVZ8xlMyo/видео.html
I prefer the one on the bottom.
You really don’t if you were actually looking at it in HDR this is a video of an hdr game but it’s in SDR. It’s like taking a mic from the 1950s and playing a high quality song on it from today. Also even if your display is hdr the vidio is not so the format is heavily limiting the brightness and color range.
Doesn’t look like my tv when HDR is on, for me it’s the opposite of the demonstration, must be the camera settings used to film

HDR is terrible. I always have it off
Just because it's HDR, doesn't mean it's a good HDR. HDR needs a lot of work by professionals but if it's done right, it can be amazing
That said, the HDR has better dynamic range and colors look more realistic too
And the amount of games that have been professionally calibrated with hdr, scene by scene are very few, therefor hdr is a scam if sdr is better 98% of the time
The hdr make more realistic.
SDR is over saturated with color. Something is off here.
To be honest if you don't do your settings in game with HDR on it's going to look trashy I learned this the hard way and I found out that adjusting the way you want your picture to look with HDR on looks a lot better than just going straight in with HDR on because if you go straight in you going to get that ugly trashy look and you going to want to turn it off and if you ask me it looks a lot better off but when you're adjust it it looks a whole lot 10 times better
You know what , i prefer Hdr cause it does not annoy my eyes as if it was off...
Keep in mind that hdr makes the image different from what the creators intended it to look like and unless you have a very high end tv or monitor hdr will make your content look washed out with brightened shadows and dull colors. Also, as someone who has played HZD multiple times I can tell this SDR video has been saturated
I have a sony tv and playing spiderman 2 on 4k hdr after playing the previous spiderman in normal 4k and it looks bit dark for me and like u said i think it is washed out a little idk what to do i guess im just turning hdr off
your hdr experience will be extremely dependent on what level of tv you have
most people are watching this on a non-hdr screen, so are really only seeing how bad hdr looks on a regular screen (or even a low quality hdr screen, low quality hdr tends to look worse than sdr)
Ngl most people are probably on an oled phone rn I think the main issue is the guy recording put a saturation filter on the bottom and the hdr clip on top looks like its coming from an hdr 400 monitor plus yt shorts dont support hdr I dont think
False, I think bottom is HDR. My Samsung TV has HDR and the colours look very bright with HDR enabled.
The guy that made this video us an idiot. At one glance I can tell his settings are ALL messed up. God knows what he's done to that tv

Hdr off looks way better lol
HDR means you get details in shadows and bright spots, at the same time, versus having to trade brightness/contrast for one or the other.
It’s photography/videography term, where sometimes we have to composite pictures with different exposure times so we get details in bright and dark areas together.
If you use hdr, the computer graphics processor will have to calculate and rebalance brightness in both bright and dark areas accurately in a smart way to bring out all those details together, this automation requires quite a bit of processing power if you need to do lots of images in a short time.
In the comparison I prefer the more bright and vibrant picture and I guessed that was hdr wth
For the record HDR does not look like this. In real life it will look more like the bottom image
LOl.. nah bro. There are some valid criticisms you can make of HDR. The fact that most HDR content has been done very poorly or has very bad even often fake (e.g. red dead redemption 2 is an infamous fake hdr game) HDR. But anyone that has experienced real, good HDR on a HDR capable screen (preferably at least 1000 nits, but I've seen TV's that did well with 750 too.. For oled TV's around 1000 is rare but they get by with their true blacks and incredible colors, so even 500 nits HDR can look impressive in a pitch black room) knows how INSANE hdr can be an how much it improves the experience of watching or playing content.
The absolute best implementation I've ever seen (and one that even Bing AI recommended me years later as "the best" is probably Valerian and the city of a thousand planets. I've watched that movie twice just because it's mind blowing in HDR.
e.g. the tiny lamps on space suits, they look like they are bright tiny led lamps that are floating above your screen. At one point an alien has a gun that is basically a sort of flashlight and it looks so insane.
HDR is a car pulling up in a dark screet and the headlights almost blind you. It's not being able to look at the sun in a scene. It's the realistic shadows witht he realistic, bright highlights. It's the wider color gamut. it's all that combined. If you have that and a screen that has fairly accurate colors it will blow your mind.
That said, some movies, shows and games have incredible HDR. And others have really bad HDR. And 95% of TV's that have been sold in the past 10 years or so as "HDR" TV's, are nowhere near capable of showing off HDR .. Even today the majority of sub 1000 euro / dollar TV's sold barely reach 300 nits brightness in HDR, esp with non oled screens that's just garbage and you're better off not using HDR at that point. In fact for al ot of content, it's better not to use HDR. But that doesn't change that HDR is incredible and a really big deal.
If you have access to a good HDR screen. Try watching some of those HDR tokyo walk videos on youtube.. they will blow your mind. (albeit, make sure the screen settings are somewhat decent and accurate)
I like how HDR looks but the brightness is locked and kills my eyes, is wayyy intense so I have it off
hdr off looks so good
Thank you
Nah it's too blinding as shit
@@XxDevGlitcherxX those look so bad bruh
Everyone says in the comments that the HDR is washed out, but dear god, just look at how much more realistic and accurate it is compared to the bottom one. The non-HDR looks like the annoying orange and Trump had a kid.
This clip isn't HDR. And even if it was you'd still need an HDR screen to display it and there's various other factors. It's not a good representation at all.
James Rolfe: HDR more like HD poop. *cue fart noises and James pretending to have diarrhea"
HDR off is wayy too saturated that’s definitely custom settings no way games look like that normally
Maaaaannnnnnn i thought my eyes way fukd up for years. Im soooo glad someone covered this. I new hdr was a piece of shit. This video needs to go viral because im SICK of all these videos an companies an sponsors saying hdr this an hdr that. Hdr is a color washing piece of shit LITERALLY. 😂
Hdr 400 and hdr 600 on budget monitors dont have true hdr if u have a flagship phone w an oled panel turn up the brightness to max and watch hdr content to see for urself
You can tell the HDR on an OLED screen is good when you leave a dark area and see a beam of sunlight and it makes your eyes hurt for a second before they adjust
If you have a cheap tv or cheap moniter, HDR will not look good on it.
Yo how do you make your games look so smooth and cinematic like that?!
Let's be real no one ever got HDR like this, and i keep trying in different games i got
One thing to note, some may be seeing this through a none HDR capable screen and two, the PS5 HDR has this weird thing (don’t know if it’s still the case) of having the colours be a little washed out or overall darker.
Ahh using that special hdr that makes your display less colorful aye? Nice.
HDR ABSOLUTELY makes the experience better
I wasnt aware that so many people dont actually know what hdr is and what it actually does.
Monitor with HDR has High Dynamic Range. This make the color more situated
Seems to me that the contrast in the HDR image has been reduced so that the darkest and the brightest detail can be shown on a regular screen without HDR. That's why it looks so dull.
The images would be more comparable if the non-HDR one had the same amount of contrast reduction applied. Both would look equally as dull, but in the HDR image you'd see the extra dark and bright detail, which in the non-HDR one would be just flat single color areas.
