Samsung has started rolling out a new firmware update for its 2016 SUHD TVs with Quantum dot display. The update enhances High Dynamic Range (HDR) quality, even if the source isn’t in HDR format.
Samsung has been marketing its latest SUHD TVs to boast HDR that drastically improves the picture quality complemented with the Quantum dot display panel. With HDR+, the TV will now be able to upgrade standard content to HDR-like quality, thus adjusting the darker content scenes to make it brighter and brighter objects to increase the contrast ratio.
There’s also an Expert Mode (accessible from Picture – Special viewing) where it allows the users customise HDR effects to suit their preference by calibrating brightness, contrast ratio and gradation.
Samsung says all 2016 SUHD TVs will get the update automatically and will roll out the update to rest of the HDR-compatible 2016 UHD TVs models by September.
