Actually 4K is not that wow effect like old time switch from 480p to 1080p but still pretty confirmed 4K is sharpen and clear.

HDR wise either you like it or dislike it, HDR never looks natural since long ago (start from photo in HDR format). It is more vibrancy and make dark area much clear and bright, in short - it is more unnatural.

It is not that easier to calibrate both same especially TV vs Monitor. TV had a lot enhancement to the image where Monitor is much actual looks on it.

I can't calibrate both same also, my TV is more towards cool (slight blueish) than monitor warm (slight yellowish) and this is what I want also, so it is very ok to me.

yesterday tested civil war, even though it doesnt state HDR, it was playing in HDR mode in settings

seriously cannot make it, dunno is it netflix HDR or samsung auto HDR-ed it

maybe HDR more suitable for games

Civil war is not in HDR. Check ur Sammy settings. U must be simulating HDR. Civil war is only 1080p.

ya, thats what i wrote

somehow my sammy was running on HDR mode, not nice

TV can force display everything in HDR like output. At least my Panasonic TV can but this is totally wrong.

You need to check back what had you done in your TV setting.

Ya, i did some settings, but i remember picking auto HDR when available

Hence it did not hinder with my normal setting when i was on the PS4 yesterday, std, non HDR

just subscribed recently, understand there are still blocked content in malaysia compare to usa... anyone using VPN to by pass them here? please recommend me a good local vpn and how to setup on the smart tv to get all the netflix content.

i dont think its blocked content, just diff content

seriously, local content also not enough time to watch for me hahahahah

Hey guys, Arrested development new season not yet on msian netflix?
It only shows up when i turned on us vpn

Sometimes it has nothing to do with your TV or eyes, but the transfer copy/mastering isn't well done for the UHD.
There are a number of UHD which is not even native 4K but upscaled, though that is not to say they still don't look good but just food for thought

You can check various sites like realorfake4k, ultrahd.highdefdigest, etc.
I only buy the ones I’m interested in after determining the source and reading reviews.

What i read, netflix 4k is only 15mbps bit rate.

They require 25mbps to more than cover, or course.

A true bluray 4k will be at least 60gb for 2hrs which works out to be 67mbps.

Allowing for the poorer audio, the diff is is still obvious to the eye.

To really enjoy a 4k blockbuster, gotta watch bd, bdmv or bd iso.

I still buy blu-ray but more digital copy welcome for me. I don't see big different actually. Probably due to different codec and compression but not means it is not good.

I can't said it is same quality as BD but after compare and it is very close to my acceptable level and I enjoy it. The importance is enjoyment or not.

Exactly.... No online streaming service as yet can serve up pure unadulterated 4K SDR/HDR. Not even YouTube which serves up the highest bitrate videos.. Matter of fact, many folks TVs out there are all running pseudo 4K video and not the real thing. It's no wonder some are unable to notice the very visible differences in PQ. To truly enjoy it as intended, all levels of AV equipment must be up to standard, down to versions of HDMI ports and cables.. Else..meh!

what's nice at netflix now?

netflix msia might carry more than enough content, but if you're always after the newer movie/series that's doesn't belong to netflix original, get a VPN.

you may check the full movie/series list from the link below, they are not up-to-date but should give you an idea. most non netflix original series in netflix msia is a season behind netflix us.
