I recently bought a Samsung 55" MU6300 for Prime Day and I am loving it! It fully supports a resolution up to 2160p RGB and HDR on my PS4 Pro. The one thing I've noticed is that the Netflix and YouTube apps on the Pro support 4K but not HDR, unlike the apps on the TV which support both 4K and HDR.
For example, in the Netflix app on the Pro it will list a tittle like, say, Marvel's Luke Cage as "Ultra HD 4K" and on the TV's native app as "HDR" (it bothers me a little by the way that I cannot confirm resolution on the TV's Netflix app like you can on the Pro by hitting the "Options" to see what resolution the image is currently streaming at). On YouTube, a 4K HDR video will display both those terms while the video is on screen on the TV app, but would just list the "4K" term on the Pro.
It sucks that the Pro doesn't seem to support HDR on video streaming apps. I hope Sony and the app developers take action soon because if not those apps will never offer the full capabilities that your TV and the videos they provide showcase. The best option in my living room for Netflix and YouTube is my Samsung TV due to them fully supporting 4K and HDR.
I love playing games in HDR on my Pro so I hope that extends to video apps soon.
