Windows Central Question
Hi everyone,
I'm going crazy. One and a half months ago I bought, for the black friday deals, the combo Philips Momentum 43" 436M6VBPAB and a Xbox One X. I'm struggling with the HDR mode on this monitor, and Philips' assistance is evading my emails and requests.
In short, whenever I run a game on the Xbox One X that is HDR enhanced, the monitor goes into HDR mode correctly but the colors in this mode look really washed out, everything seems greyish and black do not generally match. I know there's a problem because in SDR mode everything looks 1000x better.
Browsing the web (Reddit, mostly) it seems a problem of HDMI black mismatch. The problem is that I do not have any settings related to that on the Philips monitor! I can only change "color depth" on the Xbox settings, and both "Limited (Recommended)" and "PC-RGB" do not solve the problem: HDR looks extremely grey/desaturated.
I know Windows Central reviewed this monitor recently and I hope to get some assistance from anyone, because the Philips customer support behaviour is really outrageous.
