Can The APPLE TV 4K 2022 Save My SAMSUNG TV?

The New Apple TV has one new feature that allows you to get more out of your Samsung TV!

[@americanpaisareturns9051]

I got a 2015 Apple TV HD on my 2010 Samsung LED TV. They’re both still going strong and showing amazing displays.

[@OctZ2001]

UPDATE. 12/20/2022 I picked up the new Apple TV 4K 2022 with Hdr10+. YES IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE to my Samsung QN90A picture quality. The details pop more and the colors are in tune. I also have a roku4 ultra and it supports Hdr10+ but it doesn’t produce the same results. Head scratcher for sure. The sound on my older 5.1 soundbar even sounds a lot better with the Apple TV. Super happy I bought it. So if you are on the fence GET THE NEW APPLE 4K 2022!!!

[@Slip_The_Jab]

Thanks man, you input is greatly appreciated 😎💯

[@shaazsphotohub]

can you share more examples - which apps / what content? 2021 Apple TV 4K and a Samsung QN90A is my current set up - thanks for the help!

[@playafly131]

@@shaazsphotohub apparently everything should be able to display HDR10+ if you have latest ATV All content weather streaming or purchased movies Amazon Prime is already HDR10+

[@rg975]

I have an LG C1 and an S95B. I actually do not like the look of DV and turn it off on my LG. The image doesn’t pop and while it might be “accurate” I literally don’t care as long as highlights and blacks aren’t crushed. With DV the image just looks washed out all the time, muted of all colors. But standard HDR to my eyes looks better on the C1 when I calibrate it myself. I would love to see more HDR10+ content, I think DV is a walled garden technology that isn’t a set it and forget it solution.

[@georgefilipou1723]

You are the first one that mentioned Netflix. Bravo For that

[@Scion142]

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe that HDR 10+ content (mostly from Amazon Prime) can now be watched on later model Samsung sets streamed from the 4K Apple TV. This was enabled through software update to the ATV. You don’t need to purchase the new 2022 ATV model to have this enabled on your Samsung set.

[@jbs256]

Then I’d feel like a double fool. I’ve never seen that verified. But with my Denon issue, I wouldn’t have known.

[@manuelpaz6716]

That's true not necessary to buy a new Apple tv box when u can get the same HDR 10+ on the app 🍎 but thanks to this companie HDR 10 + format It will be more popular😎

[@zack.123.]

I just pulled the trigger on the amsung S95B. Question - does the Apple TV app inside Samsung's Tizen OS support hdr10+ playbacks?

[@jordanqclark]

Congratulations on your OLED SAMSUNG TV! From what I found it looks like Apple will be adding HDR10+ to the app. Here is a quote I found, “The Apple TV app for smart TVs will finally be able to play content in HDR10+. Apple is rolling out an update to its Apple TV app for smart TVs and other devices, bringing high-quality video support for Apple TV+ content as well as for iTunes movies.”

[@zack.123.]

@@jordanqclarkInteresting indeed. Thank you very much for the info and for looking into it.

[@preetpal.narwal]

I have tried Apple tv shows and movies, all are now supporting HDR 10+. Amazon prime 4k HDR content is primarily in HDR10+. Hopefully Netflix will also support it in future.

[@manuelpaz6716]

There are only 3 big ones left that don't use HDR 10 + Netflix/Hbo/Disney The fact that samsung is No.📺The fact that Samsung is the No. in sales of 📺Could influence, I hope

[@jbs256]

Hi Jordan. I have a 2019 Q80R, 65”. I was excited to see the support for HDR10+ and got the ATV to replace my 2021 model. The first thing I discovered was my Denon X4400H doesn’t pass the HDR10+ signal through even though it apparently does for DV. Sigh, I talked with Denon Support but my hope for a firmware update is small. I doubt I’m the only one with this combo so, there’s a small hope. What I also learned when I direct connected the ATV to my TV was where to confirm what the TV was seeing. Go to the smart menu/settings and look at the marker with your current picture settings. The label will say HDR10+ if it is or HDR if that. With this knowledge I found that many Apple movies and shows labeled as Dolby Vision were also HDR10+ but not properly labeled in the info screen. I don’t use ARC , Harmony remote, so I’m in a pickle. So close but so far.

[@joseluislopes3956]

Doubtful the X4400H will get HDR 10+ support. If it were in Denon's interest/possibility, they would've release the firmware update with the release of the updated 2020/2021 X4700H and X4800H (even the 2018 X4500H didn't get HDR10+ support)

[@mohamedbhamani6555]

I'm in the same position with q9fn and x4400h. So frustrating as have to choose between hdr10+ or Atmos but can't have both

[@jbs256]

@@mohamedbhamani6555 thank you for posting. I couldn’t believe I was the only one with an AppleTV and late model Samsung TV. I did call Denon and register a complaint. It was only recently that I learned where to look to see on the TV to see if HDR10+ was active. I didn’t realize a Blu-ray I was playing that has 10+ was being stripped of it by the Denon. HDR works of course so I didn’t know I’d was failing. Now I checked that to and sure enough the Denon was stripping it. How can it pass DV and not 10+ that had to take some skill. Please call Denon support and complain. 🙏

[@mohamedbhamani6555]

@@jbs256 completely agree. I will definitely contact them and see how we get along. I did briefly flirt with the idea of using a device such as HD Fury to split the signal and send audio to avr and video directly to TV, but we shouldn't have to really figure out such workarounds.

[@pinkusagar]

Its high time all TV brands should start supporting all HDR formats even though it isnt necessary if your TV is bright enough like 1200+ nits peak brightness at least.

[@Slip_The_Jab]

Just bought a 65QN90B and with everything I’ve been hearing about Samsung firmware updates I’m keeping it fully off line. Going to grab this latest Apple TV and see how it works out.

I don’t like making negative comments but listening to this man talk it’s extremely hard. With his monotone voice, it’s comparable to watching paint dry……!

[@emmanuelcrisostomo12]

Any update on this?

[@nancybrown9706]

Buy the dam box It is by far the best this year when it comes to upgrading that device.

[@yashargarrett1789]

Can you use wireless DEX on apple tv 4k?? I mean with no issues and lag?

[@pwnzstar]

I think Netflix will never support HDR10+, they have a Dolby partnership, so only Dolby Vison no HDR10+

[@andreaswegerich6682]

Well done video. Keep going, I hope your channel will succeed! ❤

[@jordanqclark]

Thank you Andreas for the kind words of encouragement. Hope you enjoy the next video!

[@Guyana602309]

Will the native Amazon apps on the tv still play hdr10+ or do you need a Apple TV to connect

[@xJI00]

The ATV still doesn’t pass Atmos so your still not getting the most of your media regardless of their support for HDR10+

[@PickemMMA]

I’m so glad I went with the LG C1. It’s just perfect for me so far. The tv speakers were not the best so I upgraded to a Bose smart soundbar 600 with bass module 500! And it’s perfect for me.

[@turbojobo]

I was planning on getting the c1 but samsung qd-oled was a total game changer

[@jbs256]

I had an older RPTV burn in so I never would buy an OLED. It’s looking like some current OLEDs are claiming to have that issue solved, including the new Samsung.

[@Memo_323]

C1 is a great tv. I also went with the QD oled from Samsung. It has the perfect contrast of the c1 with the vivid colors and brightness of a high end LED

[@PickemMMA]

@@Memo_323 i also added the bose surround 700 speakers and it really takes it to the next level sound wise for every content esp dolby atmos 5.1

[@turbojobo]

Also Apple app on your samsung now streams on hdr10+ so you dont need appletv to play content

[@jbs256]

Yes if you haven’t invested in a traditional AVR driven home theatre.

[@jimmywkwan1]

Great video. I’m also waiting to see if I should upgrade my Samsung TV. Keep us posted. Thanks

[@jpaart8342]

Samsung s95b do you need to enable auto intelligence to activate hdr10+ if not it only plays hdr is this correct?

[@dekkan53]

hdr was too dark for me so i set 4k sdr RGB low so i can turn on black level on samsung tv also match content off on apple tv. so much better than using hdr for me.

[@georgefilipou1723]

Hello can you please test if HDR 10+ works with Netflix? for example love death and robots I have a Samsung TV and I’m thinking of buying one Apple TV 4K. because you have a Samsung TV if Do a comparison with an older Apple TV 4K love death and robots please thank you

[@jordanqclark]

Great question, currently on Netflix's website they list that they only support Dolby Vision and HDR10. Unfortunately no HDR10+

@@jordanqclark thx Clark I imagined that it would be like that thanks a lot

so after a week with Apple Tv box.. im disapointed.. it kinda isnt worth if you have already SmartTV.. even screen mirror 4k vids have worse resolution than standard sony reciever.. im really bummed by that..

Which Samsung TV do you have?

2021 Apple TV 4K and a Samsung QN90A should I switch to the 2022??!

[@jordanqclark]

Great question, I would probably wait a little longer and see if more content comes out in HDR10+ or if a newer Apple TV has a new feature that adds more value.

Apple TV SAVE my samsung tv and by far now I can watch almost all my itunes catalog in HDR 10+ / also Hulu, prime video, Plex in HDR10 +😎🎥

[@SeanHuaman]

I have a samsung tv it is 4k but its not giving me the full 4k that it offers would getting and apple tv box help my problem?

[@jordanqclark]

Great question, it could be a number of factors why your tv is not receiving a 4K read out. Some things to check are, is the the cable HDMI 2.1, watching tv on cable and satellite traditionally do not support full 4K, and internet speed not enough bandwidth for 4K, etc. But yes you should be able to get 4K with the Apple TV if you have an HDMI 2.1 connection and enough internet bandwidth to support 4k. Hope this helps

[@SeanHuaman]

@@jordanqclark so i dont connect my tv to anything its just power cord thats all. No hdmi no cable box nothing. and when i watch live sports its like 720p would it be better if i got a apple tv box or would it still do the same? because i know the apple tv has ethernet would that improve the quality of it more then me using my tv provided built in software

[@eDDy1817]

Dude where did you get your info? Nearly every 4k movie standard is hdr or hdr10+. It’s more widely available then Dolby vision, and to top it off most people wouldn’t even notice the difference when steaming since you wouldn’t get full pass through through internet. Plus most would’nt even know how to calibrate their tv to get accurate pictures. Just something to ponder on.

[@playafly131]

While I agree you are right most can not tell the difference in DV being shown on Samsung TVs in HDR10+ (in fact most high end TVs still mess up DV) You are wrong about the number of content. Only Amazon Prime is HDR10+ virtually everything else is DV right now

[@ibsn87]

I’ve been looking at buying this tv. But every review confirms my fears. EVERY Samsung device I’ve ever owned has horrible and clunky interfaces. They drop support quite early on. Their software is shit. But people always brag about their technology being the best. Hardware is nothing without software. I think I need to reconsider.

[@OctZ2001]

The fact that it’s the number 1 brand for TVs and we have to play a waiting game for Hdr10+ is BS. I wish I understood what I was buying when I got by QN90A 😡 Big FAIL on Samsungs part. There is barely any HDR10+ content available or content being made using HDR10+. DV is the new standard and it is Readily available.
