Has this been pushed to the X80? If so then I hope TV stations start using it to broadcast with too.
Yup. I'm using the X80D! It came with the latest update and you can switch between it and HDR10 at will.

Nice! But will it still be a good investment at the end of the year do you think or are there any up and coming ones which could supplant it?

Preliminary results on AVSFORUMS from the TCL P Series seems to indicate this TV will be dethroned as the mid-range HDR TV.
Been playing with HLG HDR and it actually can make some games look way better. It correctly deals with skies and makes it so you can see through windows while indoors. It even helps bring out some detail lost in bright highlights. I recommend booting up Assassin's Creed Unity to see what I mean.
Just messing around, and I super know that it isn't correct or "right". I just think it's really interesting as it helps paint a picture of what HDR can do for whatever you try it on.
Edit: Seriously. I just tried GTA V and HLG makes the clouds look nice and the stained glass windows of Michael's front door actually visible. Y'all should give it a look.
In this coming to Europe?
Control the TV remotely from your PlayStation 4, or from an app on your phone/other mobile device.
Turning HDR on without it actually being HDR just oversaturates the image and reflects inaccurate colors. You may end up liking it, but it would be similar to changing color to like 85, changing tints and black levels, liv color to high etc. Some things may look 'better', but a lot looks worse. Some 4K demos on YouTube have faux HDR applied before they uploaded the image and I can easily tell.

Yup. It's just that HLG HDR is nothing like HDR10 in that it doesn't over-saturate colors (it actually slightly mutes some) or have any harsh changes in the picture that you get when trying to force HDR10. All it attempts to do is display highlights and shadows correctly, which in all games I've tried, does very well at. I have yet to find one real disadvantage to not using HLG HDR besides the slightly less-colorful oranges/reds (might also be because of my adv. temp calibration). I'm a real stickler for getting the most accurate picture possible, but I really like what messing with HLG gets and I plan on playing everything with it enabled from here on out.
If you're willing to go I to the $300 range this is what I use, and it has fantastic fake surround sound. You can get it refurbished with warranty.Loving this tv but want a bit more sound without spending a fortune. Anyone have any recommendations for around $200? Wondering if there's some cheap addition that works well with this model, Sony's offerings all seem to exceed my budget.
Currently playing life is strange with HLG, night and day difference for the backgrounds and clouds. Really cool how it's just one setting so you can turn it off with ease from the action menu.
This is the TV that keeps on giving

I would go with this Vizio Soundbar SB3821-C6. One of the best at it's low price. Or check out the other ones https://www.vizio.com/audio/home-theater.html.
So is HLG like faux-HDR for non-HDR content? It's my first time hearing of it.
No. HLG is a codec [metadata package] that broadcasters will use for HDR TV streams.
Any UK gaffers with this TV got it wall mounted? Which wall mount did you use? I'm redecorating the living room and looking to wall mount it and I'm looking for recommendations of a wall mount.
just the bar and sub. it's pretty remarkable what it can do with just that though.Thank you, I appreciate it. Do you have rear speakers alongside the Yamaha sound bar or just that setup?
Tried it out myself thanks to you. Man I'm really liking what I see on certain games. Also basically got to try it on all my games thru my screenshot gallery, most games benefited from it imo. Might just stick to it myself going forward.Ayeee, glad someone tried it out
It's currently £599 on Amazon.

Price seems to bounce around, I got mine for £521 in December from Tesco Direct (they no longer stock it though apparently).
This TV is 50hz right? But truly how much does this matter? Asking for a friend here that wants a 4K TV in time for Scorpio.
So be honest people: Do you think this will be the best Bang-For-Buck 43-Inch 4K TV in the UK by the time Scorpio rolls around or should I wait to see what else comes?
The price tag is looking like £630-ish so far and I'm willing to cap out at £650 or £700.
Nah, the be elephant in the room is that it's not really an HDR set, it' can accept an HDR signal, but there will be no benefit over feeding it an SDR signal, especially from a game console.
The older Samsung prices are dropping now, I saw a 49inch Samsung KS9000 in John Lewis for under 1k, so the 43inch models must be even lower. That range is UHD Premium certified and have local dimming.
Should be input 2 and 3. Make sure to go into settings external inputs, HDMI signal format change this to enhance 4K hdmi signal formatJust bought a 49" set for my PS4 Pro, I read though that some of the HDMI inputs are better for 4K/HDR than others? Anyone remember which inputs these are?
Anyone having an sound sync issues with this TV? The audio on mine isn't matching up with the picture, it's especially noticeable when using the Youtube App on the xbox, but I'm seeing it generally too.

Question for you guys.
I am moving from the US to EU. Should i move this TV with me? or upgrade and get another set when i get to my destination? I noticed there was a difference in outlets and read that they might have different electric output that might not match. So just wanted a quick opinion before i got into looking into the whole thing. If i do get rid of it i would probably try to upgrade to a bigger set.
I used this power converter when I bought a Pal ps3 and it works like a charm. I'm pretty sure the European power adapter that's included will solve your problem.

best reccomended settings for XB1 4k playback?
for ps4 just have everything on auto?
The Sony X800E and Samsung MU6300 (2017 versions of the X800D and KU6300) got worse reviews then the 2016 counterparts so for the remainder of this year the 2016 models are still the best TV in the 40" range it looks like.
