    Exactly what I thought earlier today. Looked better on in 17 and better off in 18.

      It sounds like it could be an HDMI handshake issue with the TV and your PS4 Pro when you enable it within the game. After turning on HDR, try exiting the game completely and then back in.
      Yup. Literally the same TV and settings I had for 17 which looked great. I'll have to mess around with it tonight when I get home, maybe something is being screwy like you said.

        I have tried everything and I still can't get HDR Mode unlocked. I have a Vizo 55' 4K Ultra HD Smart TV. Any advice or help would be much appreciated.

          deff something wrong with your settings if this is the case.

          Non HDR will never look better than HDR if done correctly.

          Tested with on and off and off looked way worse on my set.

              OLED can struggle with HDR in Game Mode because of the ABL limitations.

                I don't know the exact tv model or type of HDMI cable you're using, but all 4k tv's don't have HDR, and not all HDMI cables can carry the bandwith required.

Now I have to find the settings for 4K, Enhanced Visuals etc. All I see is Game Resolution and the choices are Balanced, Sharper and Faster. Hmmm... No 4k, Enhanced Visuals, etc... Did they rename to the three above?

                  A good dilly dilly to you my friend. I just bought a new Samsung myself a few months ago & I couldn't find this to save my life. These steps unlocked it for me as well. It did automatically change the color tone to Warm1 when I did it & I'm debating on that. Feels a tad dark, but I'm going to play with it some more. Kind of nitpicking tho, game looks fantastic anyway.

                    People who are seeing HDR locked inside the game, you half to go to settings on the PS4 sound and screen and turn this on in order to flip in on or off within the game. If u turn HDR off under settings on PS4 sound and screen then the HDR will be locked on the game.

                        Some 4k tv's have a fake HDR... To really get the best experience you need HDR 10 with wide color gamut. The following link explains the differences pretty well.

                        Wide Color Gamut, or WCG, is a TV feature that can, in theory, make your TV look more vibrant and realistic. Here's what you should know.
