Hdr

Got a 55" Sonly bravia 4k TV with HDR10, cost around £700 a month or so back..

Got my Xbox One X hooked up to it, honestly the HDR gaming is a bit hit and miss. It looks stunning on Sea of thieves, but AC:Origins is a bit meh, It isn't anything to write home about.. Maybe its because i'm gaming on a 1080ti at 165hz when not couching it..

What does the monitor refresh rate have to do with visual quality? I thought it was just smoother when playing or something like that
 
Maybe im getting my wires crossed. But HDR is high dynamic range, ie the difference between black and white. Old TV standards white wasnt very white and black wasnt very black.
Now people say you need an HDR screen to see, why do you, you just need a contrast range that fits the HDR standard, or is it more a signal acceptance thing to make us all buy new tvs.
OLED for instance by default can go as black as the screen is made and as bright as they make it, so why does it also need to be HDR certified.

Because visual quality is easier to identify when you see that image 3x faster than normal

I find HDR does make things look extremly accurate in terms of colour, my TV has HDR vivid and HDR video, personally i prefer vivid as it has deeper and more vibrant colours, video feels a bit washed out but very accurate. Brightness wise i won't see a great HDR experience until i update to OLED.
 
Personally, I've found the switch from backlit LED to OLED has been more of a visual upgrade than HDR. Together, they are obviously amazing though.
