    HDR makes games look washed out on Xbox Series X


    I have an HDR TV (TCL 49S403) and have HDR10 enabled on my Xbox, and it works, but all colors in games look washed out to a degree. I used the HDR Game Calibration app but same results.

    So what do I do after it’s reset and setup again?

    I got it to work again, but it looks the same. I have noted that it is more typically blue colors that appear washed out, whereas red appears normal.

    Thank you for that. To isolate the issue, I would appreciate it if you can try a different TV or HDMI cable that also supports HDR because if that still didn't work you may need to get your console repaired.

    Thank you for that and if that's the case, if possible please ask a family member or a friend nearby then check it on their TV just to check if it's the console itself.
