So, I just got my OLED and there were a lot of recommendations to check out the game in HDR on the Steam Deck OLED in different threads. But, when I turn on HDR in Cyberpunk’s settings, the image is either totally desaturated and greyed out (HDR10 PQ) or extremely too bright and oversatured (scRGB). Tested both with 50% screen brightness and tried all calibration settings to no avail (setting max nits to 1000).
Am I doing something wrong (and which calibration settings are you using?) or have people recommended Cyberpunk for the OLED without actually trying it out first?
I changed my steam deck color profile to native/srgb, and am using the sRGB HDR setting in cyberpunk, looks good? Brightness at 80-100. But to be fair, its my first HDR game. Gotta try a benchmark HDR game like ori or something.
I don’t get what you mean with “setting it to native/srgb”. There is a slider between “sRGB” on the left side and “native” on the right side. And it says it only affects SDR content, not HDR.
Oh didnt realize that, nvm then, guess were seeing the same cyberpunk. Guess I just need a good HDR reference game! And was remembering wrong, had it on native, but guess those only apply to SDR content anyway.
But to my eye it looks so much better in terms of highlights. Like when the sun shines, its SO bright, but the rest of the screen is dark, its wild! But yeah, maybe colors and blacks could be better idk?
