Hi there

 

Unfortuantely there will be no update for 2014 4K TVs.  I dont think they are capable of HDR anyhow. 

 

Sorry this is not the answer you are hoping for.

 

Cheers

I understand that your not happy, but at the time of your TV the HDR specification has not even been ratified (agreed on).  Also it takes time for Sony to plan/engineer/manufacture TVs - HDR has only started in the last 12 months.

 

Also, at the end of the day, there is still a lack of content for HDR - just like early 4K adopters, it takes time.  Give it another year or so, and HDR will become quite standard in 4K TVs and hence the price should start dropping a bit.
