The HDR mode intends to improve dark scenes pictures, but due to the global dimming algoritm that Samsung implemented it is impossible to see HDR movies with dark scenes.
I have disabled all image post processing, switched all ECO modes, but it still dimming on dark scenes. Dаmn, its drives me crazy. Especially you can see that when you open setting menu over dark scene. You can see how it increases the light because the menu is white, but once you close it it decreaces it and again everythig is dark.
Going to return this tv.

NU7100 has no Local Dimming, it is part of NU8000 and up
And local dimming (redusing backlid on dark areas in vertical zones (as sams has no proper FALD implemented)) has nothing to do with global dimming (when tv by itself redusing backlid globbaly on scenes where 80% of scene is dark (stupid approach, interesting to know who invented that - to make darks scenes, where small details hard to see even more darker)

Hey there... recently purchased my 55QLED 2018 and yes drove me mad and was trying everything as you all have been trying. Stumbled upon the following setting GENERAL/accessibility/high contrast... turned this on and yes it accentuates to black and grey prominent menu displays but helps drastically with low bright screens set in dark to include stopping black out on end credits etc. Worked for me... hope it helps ciao ciao

I'm also interested. I have a Samsung nu7400 and when there are dark scenes I the black is too strong! It looks dim and it's difficult to see some particulars. It's strange because for the rest is a very good Tv

Im interested as well. It's a shame you need a technician menu to control that

I've used the solution that is on YouTube with the technical menu and now it's quite good..... Except for Amazon prime video that still seems dim and too dark...someone, who had used this ""solution"" has noticed this?
