Here's why you should avoid Vivid mode, even on the best OLED TVs
- Using Filmmaker or Movie picture mode during TV testing generally provides accurate colors, contrast, and textures, preferred over other picture modes.
- Some TVs have a good Standard mode suitable for daytime viewing or colorful content, but picture mode choice is subjective.
- TechRadar discourages the use of Vivid modes due to oversaturated colors, overly sharp textures, and excessively high brightness levels.
- Vivid modes, including Dolby Vision Vivid, typically lead to inaccuracies and unnatural appearance in colors and textures.
- Comparing Dolby Vision modes on LG G5 OLED TV and Panasonic MZ1500, Filmmaker Mode displayed natural colors and accurate textures with good contrast.
- Dolby Vision Cinema offered brighter tones while maintaining natural textures and contrast, closely following Filmmaker Mode in performance.
- Dolby Vision Standard mode increased brightness with cooler tones, approaching the border between accuracy and oversaturation in colors and textures.
- Dolby Vision Vivid mode demonstrated a significant brightness boost but sacrificed accuracy, leading to oversaturation, loss of detail, and unnatural textures.
- Even on elite OLED TVs like the LG G5, the Vivid mode is advised against in favor of modes like Cinema or Standard for adequate brightness without compromising accuracy.
- For natural and accurate representation, avoiding Vivid modes is recommended to maintain the integrity of colors, textures, and overall viewing experience.
