4K HRD TV for Xbox one S/UHD Bluray.

[seanyc5]

Hi,

I purchased a Xbox One S the other day to play battlefield with mates, but a major draw was UHD Bluray and HDR10.

Dont want to spend a fortune and ideally needs to be around 43" (bedroom use).

It is rather confusing as some seem to say HDR but I have read that they are not proper HDR10 or something. Any suggestions at or around 43"? Android on the TV would be a nice bonus.

Edit* I already have a 4K panasonic at 40" but already have it 'sold'

Edit 2** Philips 49PUS6401 how does that look? Size is ok I just measured, its says UHD certified and HDR but no mention of 10bit so im not sure?

Thanks,
Sean

Yeah I spotted that one! Think I may get this then its a bit more expensive but should hopefully be worth it. Someone on the shop that sounds like ar goose asked if the Philips was HDR10.

Does this TV support HDR 10 or Dolby Vision?
Im looking for a new tv for the xbox one s however it only supports HDR 10. Please can you help? Thanks.

Hello Lee 360

Thank you for your question, the 6401 supports 10 bit colour from source device and is HDR Plus compatible.

Hope this helps.

Assuming that just mean it can take a 10bit output but not display it? Thought it was too good to be true!

Hi,

I ended up going for the Samsung UE49KS8000 got it for £1260, the UE49KS7000 looked just as good to be fair but it would have played on my mind thinking I should have paid that little bit more. a lot of review sites say its one the best Tvs of 2016. Just need to 10bit hdr content now haha, got the new Star Trek pre-ordered, Battlefield 1 is getting a hdr patch.

Im assuming the 980ti does not support 10bit hdr? The option is greyed out in the TVsettings when PC is used as a source.

See here and here for details on HDR with Nvidia cards.

Thanks my google skills did not dind that somehow. So I have ran the test on there and get the washed out colours like you supposed to and a message from the TV saying 'HDR content is playing'. I can not however select 10bit on the nvidea control panel?? It is rather annoying lol, any ideas? I have messed around with all the different options and no luck.

Ah just figured it out. You cant have 4k 60hz 4:4:4 10bit. You have to have 4k 60hz 4:2:2 10bit. What should I go with? Why have a 10bit panel if you cant use it properly? Or I a missing something (I have no idea what 4:4:4/chroma is lol)
