So, of the nigh on 400 TVs supported in BBC iplayer for the Blue Planet II  HLG episodes none are from Samsung. Oh joy. 

...

Moderator edit: Original thread title was "Blue Planet 2 HLG - No Samsung". With the OP's permission, the title was changed on 12/03/2018 to accurately reflect the dominant theme of the thread as it has progressed. If the reader would like to know more about the HLG format, please check out the BBC's page and FAQ's on it here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/projects/high-dynamic-range Thank you, AntS.

An absolutely hilarious statement from Samsung/Ants. Final statement, ie you can all just shut up and ***** off now. You should have read the writing on the wall in January, this was the only outcome that was ever going to happen. You should have taken them to court over miselling and got your money back by utilising the information in the other thread and using every possible reason. They think you are mugs and to be honest they are right. TAKE THEM TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT. It will cost you £60 and you will get that back. The smart things dongle is a home run case of mis-selling. It's too late now for the world cup, the procedure will take well over a month to come to an end, but at least you will have the satifaction of hurting samsung. Their legal representation costs them a fortune in itself.

Samsung is out of my life never to return.

@amokuk   Yes, but of course the one thing most JS and KS owners will agree on is that they have great pictures and were the last in line to do 3D. Whilst not everybody cares for 3D, those that do would be reluctant to lose that facility on a newer TV. If the newer OLEDs did 3D and 4K, HLG HDR, HDR10 etc, I'd drop my JS in a heartbeat.
