Grayscale, color fidelity, saturation and gamut to factory settings
Before we get to the topic of HDR, let’s take a look at the SDR and color performance of the Samsung Odyssey OLED G8. How could it be otherwise, this will not match the sRGB color space with the default settings. But at least Samsung has also included an sRGB emulation mode – somewhat hidden – in the OSD.
Color space coverage
No, I didn’t copy the values from the MSI MEG342C. I measure almost the same, but you can see in detail that the white point of the OLED G8 is a little more green.
Gray Scale, Saturation, ColorChecker @ Default Setting
Unfortunately, good DeltaE values are not possible without appropriate color space clamping. If skin colors are particularly important to you, you should use the sRGB mode for content on the Internet (web, YouTube, etc.).
Gray Scale, Saturation, ColorChecker @ sRGB (OSD Color Space Auto)
Samsung is doing everything right here, no advertising for Delta Error. No, you simply give the customer what is necessary and that’s it. The sRGB mode is also not locked in the OSD. You can really let off steam with the monitor. That’s the advantage of the TV processor. And, as we already know, you don’t need a colorimeter. An appropriately supported smartphone built in 2019 or later is enough to perform a calibration. I will look at this topic in a separate article, otherwise it would go beyond the scope of this article.
