I agree it is better but it's not HDR like I've seen on displays in store. I only got this TV last xmas so not sure I can justify buying a new one yet. I would love a 65" HDR setup though.

I upgraded mine to the 49UH850 a month or so ago after buying an Xbox One S. The difference with HDR is definitely worth it.

Only problem was my 1080p all in one blu-ray and reciever also needed replacing for 4k and HDR passthrough. I didn't go high end by any stretch of the imagination but it's been a full upgrade of my home entertainment system in the end.

Is it a Pro feature or updated recently to being able to record up to an hour of footage per time, instead of the regular 15 minutes at a time?

No, it came with a FW update, Pro feature is that you can record in 1080p, and stream even in 1080p 60fps.

 

[golem]

Is it noisy with other games or just UC4?

Seems pretty noisy in UC4 and TLOUR. Not so much in other games, but definitely can hear the fan going

UC4 was noisy for me too, then the game stopped installing...

Damn my first few hours with my PRO didnt go as planned...

Had backed up all my data (400GB) to my USB HDD.

Unpacked the buty and connected everything and started restore after update... first 15GB went fine then..."cant restore bla bla bla PS4 will initialize". Oh well tried once more, but after like 5gb same thing again. Literally threw my HDD out in the snow!

So I spent my night downloading everything again, luckily Im on a 100/100 line so went quite fast but still. Didnt have time to try any games.

 

[Sulaco]

So relieved that my pro is quiet - thanks be to Jaysus! Ratchet and Infamous look so clear on my 1080 TV. Jaggies are hard to spot and there is very little shimmering now.

However I am a little disappointed that the UI is stlil choppy - in particular scrolling through the horizontal tiles. Would this improve with an SSHD?

 

[Deleted member 20920]

Sign...The store I preordered from didn't have stock... What's the point of preordering then? They also don't know when the 2nd batch will come as Sony Asia didn't give them a date... I heard elsewhere of a December date for the second batch.

Ordering from Amazon US instead. The taxes will make it about 100 dollars more but I want this before FF XV arrives.

 

[Hackbert]

mhh weird, but the console got loud playing infamous. other games its quiet. i also have an LG with "ultra deep colour whatever"... i can see no big difference. a shame i did not wait another half year to upgrade. now i will wait a year or to until i upgrade.

Oh damn, you guys have snow already? Jealous.

 

[Grinchy]

Uncharted 4 with HDR and "4K" looks fucking amazing. I didn't really love the campaign, but I wish I had played it for the first time like this instead. And yes, it's the first game to make the Pro audible for me. It gets that system very warm.

 

[ScherzoPrime]

May be the Placebo effect, but though I was first kind of unimpressed by MWR's presentation difference on the Pro, I think it's beginning to grow on me. Especially scenes with heavy usage of particle effects.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

The upgrade is real.

 

[TLZ]

Literally threw my HDD out in the snow!

Are you in Iceland?

 

[Always-honest]

The upgrade is real.

So is the black crush.. jeez. what are your settings? Or is this HDR that translates way too dark on non HDR screens?

 

[jbortz78]

Hah yup, live in Stockholm/Sweden and we had a lot of snow hitting us this wednesday. Couldnt get to work

(sorry for going of topic).


Back on: Really liking the feel/build quality of the Pro and the "new" DS4. The machine itself feels much more sturdy, now Im just waiting for my vertical stand. And the DS4 also feels much sturdier, and has a better feel to the buttons.

HDR Gaming

Black Level : Low or Full ?
Dynamic Contrast : Medium Or Off ?
Smart Led : High or off ?

If i set dynamic contrast on off everything is so dark and not vibrant colours

 

[KingJ2002]

Did you do this

Go to Menu, picture and scroll down to picture options and select HDMI UDH COLOR and select the HDMI port and turn on and you have HDR glory!

Yep... I did after browsing this thread. Thanks man

 

[ASIS]

I haven't been keeping up with PS4 Pro news, but will TLG and FFXV offer enhancements with PS4P or is that still unknown?

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Made a thread about down/upload speeds, please post yours in there

This is how I have it on my TV and it is the ebst combination IMO.

 

[TP-DK]

My Pro has this constant noise when I'm in the menu or in sleep mode even though I have no games playing. Anyone else with this issue?

 

[d9b]

Is there HDR for The Rise of The Tomb Raider? I can't see it in the options.
Anyone?

I don't think it supports HDR

 

[Lord Error]

What resolution is Infamous actually running, in 4K mode?

There's no HDR in it.

 

[guitarguy316]

Did anyone with a 4K OLED have any issues getting a picture of was it just plug and play? I'm wondering if my system is defective. getting a black screen with sound and if I look at the signal infor it says 2160p.

There's a fix for it. Have to use safe mode.

 

[Phear]

Got mine, its not super silent, but the noise level is below release ps4.

Everything feels a bit snappier. But it might be a placebo. Downloading Uncharted 4 right now..

 

[DKHF]

They will both offer enhancements with PS4P. FFXV's were just announced recently (see here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1311534)

 

[Frillen]

Do I deactivate my PSN on my original PS4, before I start the transfer? In what order should I do things when I do the transfer?

 

[Matush]

Transfering from my old PS4 to Pro, 200GB takes 6 hours? Jesus.

 

[Wallach]

Transfering from my old PS4 to Pro, 200GB takes 6 hours? Jesus.

Really? It only took like 70 minutes to do ~330GB on my end.

 

[Black Republican]

does the Infamous games have a separate 4K mode (similar to tomb raider) you have to select from or is it automatically applied if you have a 4k tv?

 

[Always-honest]

what? No man. That shouldn't take longer than an hour.

 

[Matush]

Not sure why it's taking that long (through LAN), faulty cable?

My TV has an HDR mode that apparently doesn't translate into screenshots. Just tested it to be sure. Hmm.

Ah right. Well, good for you man ;P

 

[SeanR1221]

OMG this is maddening.

After hours of attempting to backup last night, I wake up and its finished.

I put my 2TB into the pro and now it won't recognize the firmware update I put on my external HDD.

Yes its in a folder labeled UPDATE inside a PS4 folder.

WTF.

 

[HeelPower]

I strongly recommend Rise of the Tomb Raider.

The game is visually mindblowing.wew!

 

[Eggbok]

noob question, if I play in 1080p is everything automatically downsampled/ supersampled?

 

[c00l3ru]

Uncharted 4 with HDR and "4K" looks fucking amazing. I didn't really love the campaign, but I wish I had played it for the first time like this instead. And yes, it's the first game to make the Pro audible for me. It gets that system very warm.

Yes. Played UC4 a lot yesterday. Amazing and the thing is it's only 1440p. We know ND can do better and apparently there working on another patch. So can't wait to see what's in store for all of us😀

 

[lowrider007]

I've also noticed that the fan can be quite audible at times, although it's not quite reaching regular PS4 TLOU noise levels, it does seem to be at a higher pitch which is a little annoying.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

Ah right. Well, good for you man ;P

I'm actually upset now that I realize only I can see how beautiful my games really are :/

 

[Always-honest]

noob question, if I play in 1080p is everything automatically downsampled/ supersampled?

Yes. Unless there are other options to choose from like the two extra native 1080P options in Tombraider. But the 4K mode in that game also automatically downscales to 1080P on your 1080P screen. Looking much cleaner.

 

[Kogepan]

Just had time to load TLOU and UC4. HDR looks crazy good on my Vizio M-Series 65 incher. Totally worth the upgrade if you have this TV.

Did you download the firmware update or the full PS4 install? You have to download the full install.

https://www.playstation.com/en-us/support/system-updates/ps4/#newinstallation

It's on that page.

 

[SeanR1221]

That's probably it 😭 I'm starting to remember this from when I initially installed this 2tb drive.

Where can I find the full install?

I could be wrong but I've seen multiple HDR shots in this thread now and all have serious black crush. I think screenshots in HDR might be broken on the PS4 Pro right now. Similar issue XB1S had (although that was making everything look washed out) but I believe they've solved now.
