XE9005 HDR quality

Has anybody got a fix for crap quality hdr streaming content on the xe9005 & xe8004 TVs? Software version is pkg6.6545 which is said to be android 8. All streaming content besides from you tube is darker then normal TV but hdr even more so and dull as mud! Netflix is ok only in 4k ultra and Prime unwatchable. Has anyone got advice on this or is it that Sony 4k is non existent.

XE90 and XE80 tv model are completely different (one being VA and FALD while the other is IPS and edge LED) so you should see a different result (also because XE90 is far more bright).

If you have problem with specific streaming service (i.e. Netflix) you should be sure of the quality delivered rather than complain with the TVs. Bear in mind also that most streaming services are still affected by post-covid reduced bistream

PS: be aware that 6.545 is not the latest firmware https://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/support/lcd-tvs-android-xe90xx_x90xxe-series/kd-55xe9005/download...
