I got my first OLED monitor a few days ago, and was excited to try HDR out.
I have no idea what HDR is really supposed to look like, but Windows’ version or implementation of HDR is garbage. My icons on just my taskbar looked so incredibly washed out I worried I made a mistake getting the monitor itself.
Turned off HDR and noticed colors popping again. The hell is so special about HDR..? lol
I’ve never seen it look better than without on any device—and I’ve tried it on many. I, too, am bewildered by this technology.
