UN55NU6950FXZC HDR?

[P1133]

Hello everyone! I have purchased a UN55NU6950FXZC, and the box, the manual, and every site that has it listed online say that it has the latest version of HDR. However, I cannot find the spot in the TVs menu to enable HDR, like other Samsung TVs have (usually it's in the 'expert settings' of the 'picture' section of settings).

Does this TV have HDR, like the box, manual, and site suggest? If so, how do I turn HDR on or off? Or is it always on? Thanks so much for your help!

Cheers!

There's a whole slew of settings for you to manually adjust or auto adjust your picture. It's a great TV, especially for gaming...Enjoy!

Thanks so much for the reply!! Unfortunately, I have checked in the experts settings, and it is not there, which is why I am a bit concerned.. Thanks again for the info though!!

The TV has HDR sensing by default. If you come across an HDR source signal, HDR is activated. HDR activation can be confirmed by looking on the home bar source setting (Dynamic, Standard, Movie). There will be a small HDR icon attached to the icon.

Sometimes the icon doesn’t show in Netflix titles but the picture is definitely HDR.

When you are viewing an HDR source, the TV automatically adjusts the expert settings for HDR. Have a look, when the TV is scanning in HDR go to expert settings and you will see a lot of the fields are turned up, more like Dynamic, even though the picture doesn’t appear bright and overlit like Dynamic.

The HDR button in expert settings is for applying an HDR upscale to SD and non HDR HD sources. This setting is a matter of preference if you like to use it or not. I find it oversaturates and softens the image.

Unfortunately there is conflicting versions on these points. The tech support folks have a different understanding than the web literature. I have come to my conclusions after trial and error.
