Under display settings, there’s an option to customize the color vibrancy on the Deck OLED, with a slider ranging from “sRGB” to “Native”, set to the middle by default.
From what I understand, sRGB is the “most accurate” color setting, while “Native” takes advantage of the screen’s ability to display colors outside of the sRGB range, resulting in that “pop” in vibrancy.
My question is, what settings are you all using? Are you sticking with the default, toning down the colors a bit, or turning them up to max?
Haven’t received mine yet but I imagine I’ll do the same as I do with TVs, which is turning off any image “enhancements” to get the picture as close as possible to its unmodified state.
I expect this to be more necessary than is typical for a device with an OLED panel, since a lot of content is already oversaturated so it looks good on commodity LCDs with crappy color reproduction, which could result in blown-out colors when adding a saturation boost on top of the already strong color capabilities of OLED.
Bringing it closer to native really makes things pop so I put it around 85% with a 7500k color temp… I prefer cooler displays
Thought it was only me
That’s more for the LCD model, honestly. I’d just leave it on the defaults.
The OLED defaults to a slightly oversaturated picture which is why I’m asking
Put it in srgb mode, all the way to the left. Sdr is made for srgb displays, so you need to clamp a dci-p3 display like the sd oled screen to srgb for accurate sdr colours.
Anything else is objectively inaccurate and will give you a “boosted” vivid mode image.
