I bought a Philips 58PUS8105 from Argos last week (£480) to replace my 55PUS6704 (which got knocked over and screen smashed) and the picture quality on the new 58PUS8105 is absolutely awful.
I thought they'd have the same panel or whatever, but the old 55" beats the 58" in picture quality hands down.
Colours are washed out, screen is too bright. I've changed all of the settings on 8-bit Sky Q content loads of times to try and make it better, turned off dynamic contrast, turned it up full, changed colours manually, changed video contrast, reset everything, started again, updated it to the latest software and all sorts but the picture quality is just awful. I've turned off the various modes, put it into monitor mode, game mode, turned off all of the motion compensation and all sorts but I can't make it nice like the old one.
Awful awful awful. I've contacted Argos who say that if I can't get this sorted by day 30 then I can return it for a refund/exchange.
I'm clutching at straws but I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas of what settings to use for non-HDR 4k content. Once I've sorted that I'll try to do the same with Dolby Vision/HDR content.
Help!
