PSVR / HDR question.

Hello all,

I'm looking to go into to town tomorrow and pick up a PSVR Mega Bundle, It comes with the v2 headset that allows a HDR signal to pass through.

I do have a HDR TV but I do not find the HDR all that good so I have it switched off. I also noticed I can buy a v1 headset a lot cheaper, with HDR turned off on my tv will the signal still go through or am I limited to only buying the v2 headset because of my tv.

Many thanks.

nah, I have a v1 with my LG OLED. When I want to use HDR on the PS4 just use a female-female HDMI coupler to join both of the cables that go into the processing box thing.

But if I just have HDR switched off all the time I shoudlnt need the extra cable? it'll work as normal?

Ahhh, perfect, I just wont enable HDR on the ps4, so in that case i'll buy the v1 and save £100
