That said HDR is one of the flagship features, which the high end TV models boast of, it seems like a new concept – HDR Pro – is going to change the way we watch Television. You badly want to watch high quality content, but can’t spend much on it. Then, it is in such a condition, which you would love ‘HDR Pro’ technology. Definitely not as good HDR10 or Dolby, HDR Pro still edges out the normal visual experience, which you are used to.
Into the technical details, an HDR10 would have a 10 bit panel and would be capable of producing 1000 nits brightness. Only TV sets with HDR10 technology, delivers HDR output. That said, for reproducing HDR content on the screen, a TV set needs to read an HDR inputs. It is in this scenario, which HDR Pro plays its part. HDR Pro is a technology, which enables TV sets to play HDR content, out from SDR content. This technology helps TV sets delivering better quality content out from non HDR inputs. However, it must be said here that the content at any day might not touch the visual grandness of a TV set, which supports HDR10.
Well, now comes the ‘Dolby Vision’. When you compare Dolby Vision, with that of HDR10, then the major difference, which you would spot is in terms of the colour depth. Not supported in most TV sets, Dolby Vision, though produces more colours than that of an HDR10 output. The major difference which Dolby Vision produces is because it has a 12 bit panel and produces a huge 68 billion colours. If you lives in India and want to find Dolby Vision content, then not many options are there for you, except the likes of Sony’s Bravia A1 and LG’s Signature series TVs.
For budget customers, the best option is to go with a brand like TCL. TCL, which is essentially an Android TV is consisted with HDR Pro technology. It means, you can watch better quality images through TCL, than with your normal TV sets.
