4K Ultra HD releases not offering the quality of what the format is capable of

Even that which is graded on a 1,000 nit sony OLED isn't perfectly replicated on home TVs due to ABL and dimming.

This doesn't even account for atrocious tone mapping on lower end units that makes HDR images look like dim trash.

A few years down the line I suspect we will be seeing the same content look vastly different.

This is disappointing, and something I've actually heard about with regard to LG's OLEDs -- do some 4K titles actually come across as being dim on certain TVs?

I hope this doesn't happen with my new Samsung 8 Series...
