September 12, 2024

If you’ve ever been in the market for a new TV set, you’ve probably come across terms like HDR, HDR10, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision. But what do these acronyms stand for, and what’s the difference between them? In this article, we’ll go into details about these HDR technologies to help you make an informed choice!

What is HDR?

The term HDR, or High Dynamic Range, refers to a display technology that offers a wider range of brightness and color than traditional display technology. This technology enables brighter images, deeper blacks and greater color palette to be displayed, delivering a more realistic and immersive visual experience.

HDR10

HDR10 is one of the first stage of HDR standards available on the market. This term means that videos have been encoded on 10 bits to define more precise and varied brightness and color levels. Although widely adopted, HDR10 presents certain limitations in terms of flexibility and precision, as the processing does not change according to the needs of the video. In other words, a very bright scene will have the same treatment as a night scene, for example.

HDR10+

HDR10+ is an evolution of the HDR10 standard, developed by Samsung and adopted by other manufacturers. Unlike HDR10, HDR10+ uses dynamic processing to adjust brightness and color levels on a scene-by-scene or even frame-by-frame basis. This approach offers greater precision and a richer, more detailed visual experience.

Dolby vision

Dolby Vision is another HDR technology that also uses dynamic processing. Developed by Dolby Laboratories, this technology delivers exceptional image quality, with more vivid colors, sharper details, and enhanced contrast. What’s more, Dolby Vision is compatible with a wider range of TV sets and content, making it a popular choice among movie buffs and home theater enthusiasts.

In short, HDR, HDR10, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision are all HDR technologies designed to enhance the picture quality of your TV.  Each of these has its own advantages and limitations, so it’s important to choose the one that best suits your needs and budget!
