In practice, this mode basically turns off the TV's processing, like motion smoothing and image sharpening. Personally, I do not use any sort of motion smoothing feature, which is why I found the CX's new Filmmaker Mode to be very handy.Īs its name suggests, this picture mode - created by the UHD Alliance industry body - gives viewers the cinematic experience as intended by the director. When I tested it, the feature darkens the visuals, especially at High setting. The CX also has a black frame insertion feature, dubbed Oled Motion Pro, that adds black frames between normal frames to create the illusion of smoother motion, especially for fast-moving content like sports.

This works well - for instance, upscaled 720p content looks suitably sharp to my eyes and could pass off as 1,080p content. To be fair, the CX does have a newer processor that is said to improve the TV's ability to upscale lower-resolution content to its native 4K resolution. This is good news for C9 owners but makes the CX a less compelling upgrade. The CX also comes with a HGiG mode - created by the HDR Gaming Interest Group industry body - that recommends how the high dynamic range (HDR) effect, which produces more lifelike and realistic visuals, are implemented in games.įor video content, HDR formats like Dolby Vision and HDR10 are supported but not the Samsung-led HDR10+ format.īoth G-Sync and HGiG are also available for the C9 with a firmware update.

PC gamers, though, can enjoy a smooth gaming experience, thanks to the CX's support for Nvidia's G-Sync technology, which works with compatible Nvidia's graphics cards, to reduce stuttering by synchronising the frame rates in a game with the CX's 120Hz refresh rate. Compared with HDMI 2.0, the newer 2.1 standard enables higher resolutions and frame rates, as well as variable refresh rates and an automatic low-latency mode for lag-free gaming.īut there are practically no HDMI 2.1 source devices available, at least not till the end of the year when the next-generation game consoles from Microsoft and Sony are expected to launch. Like the C9, the new model has four HDMI 2.1 ports.
