High Dynamic Range (HDR) HDR

About the HDR feature

High Dynamic Range (HDR) is a picture feature on your TV that attempts to mimic the way visuals are perceived in real life by the human eye.

By using this feature, the TV can reproduce greater dynamic range of luminosity by capturing and then combining several different exposures.

HDR promises better picture quality thanks to brighter, more realistic highlights, more realistic colour and other improvements.

It delivers the look that the filmmakers intended to achieve, showing the hidden areas of dark shadows and sunlight with full clarity, colour and detail.

HDR on your TV

HDR is supported in HDMI and USB input sources.

NOTE: When watching HDR content, make sure the Menu > Picture > Open HDR is set to Auto, Low, Middle or High. This requires an HDR playback-capable external media player and HDR optimised media content. Use a High-Speed HDMI cable when connecting to an external media player.

Smart TV

Before you start using apps, your TV must be connected to the internet.

The speed of your internet connection determines the quality of your audio/video experience when you watch streaming content.

Accessing internet content may count towards your download limit and may incur fees from third parties such as your internet service provider (ISP).
