    What is HDR Plus mode on Samsung TV?
    bryon_schultz
    over 1 year ago
    HDR+ Mode will improve the picture quality even further by adjusting the color and brightness range, ensuring that SDR (Standard Dynamic Range) content will look like HDR content. It not only enhances SDR, but the HDR+ algorithm also enhances standard HDR content.
