HDR for TV is meaningful only if u have HDR player, HDR sources and HDR AVR as well.

HDR sources are available but are in genuine Bluray 4k HDR discs - consider the costs... and an HDR BD player

Then u need an HDR AVR too for pass thru if using home theater.

Good soft media 4K is still rare and hard to get (with good reason), let alone 4k HDR... trust me. biggrin.gif

The time will come, maybe 3-4 years from now... but for now, HDR does not come into play for most people.

Still, highest grade soft media 1080p bluray HD audio is good enough, TV delivers very well with upscaling to 2160p.

media player.. there are all kinds... do not stinge when buying one if u r into big heavy files playback - price does matter!

HDR is becoming very common now as a lot of games in PS4 and movies/series in netflix are stream in HDR and dolby vision.

i think this will be the trend for for 2018. unless you plan to change the your TV next year, its good to go for a TV which supports HDR or Dolby Vision.

However, supporting HDR/Dolby Vision doesnt really mean that you can fully enjoy the quality. Other than OLED/Quantum Dot or Laser projector, most other TV could not really give you the full HDR effect.

my brother is using UE630X and he is facing a lot of limitation with the USB port especially on the size of the supported drive.

the best way for you to test out 4k video is to use 4k bluray or stream netflix. So far the built in netflix is able to stream 4k video without any problem but the wifi is giving a lot of problem. Sometimes when its disconnected from the router, it is not able to reconnect and the router and TV needs to be reboot in order to reconnect. the rest of the laptop n mobile phone does not have this connection issue with the router so the fault should be on the TV.

One of the best TV for smart features r LG tvs. I am accessing all my videos i downloaded in my computer by file sharing and the TV is able to play BDMV files as well. if you wish to share the entire hdd drive, just install the LG file sharing software to the computer and you can select anything you wish to share to the TV from the software. Very user friendly system

probably is the faulty of the router but other devices seems to be able to connect to the router without any problem. this is the Unifi cheapo router so cant really expect much from it. since it wasn't giving any problem to mobile phone or laptop connection, my brother doesnt want to change the router.
