The support for HDR, both dynamic and static, improves contrast and colour reproduction on compatible displays. For competitive or fast-paced gaming, the combination of high refresh rates and adaptive features helps reduce tearing and stutter, which can make gameplay feel more responsive. Note that the actual experience depends on the source device and display capabilities, according to the manufacturer. 🔊

Usage Recommendations

Run the cable directly between the HDMI output of the source device and the HDMI input of the TV or receiver that supports the required HDMI 2.1 features to get the best results. For setups using eARC, ensure the TV and soundbar or AV receiver both have eARC enabled in their settings. Consider routing the braided cable to avoid sharp bends, and keep firmware on consoles and TVs up to date so features like VRR and ALLM are recognised and activated. ⚙️.
