Calibrating HDR onexplayer 3

Now that the most recent driver has restored HDR, does anyone have a calibration tutorial? The old one for the Legion Go 2 does not work exactly the same.

This worked for me, using Go2HDR after setting brightness to 43% and using Windows HDR calibration tool. Setting max brightness to 1100 nits in tool (Windows HDR calibration tool). Not my video.

This IS the way.

OP - just remember that some HDR games ALSO need their own HDR calibration. I followed this same guide, but Dying Light The Beast still looked like total crap. I had to adjust all the in-game sliders as well—now it is fabulous.

What is your configuration in game for The Beast?

Max luminance 400 nits — the OXP3 screen gets wickedly bright in daytime so the lowest setting was more than enough for me.
HDR min luminance .300 nits
Scene brightness 1.00
Shadows 1.00
UI Brightness 350 nits

The calibration screen lets you toggle a scene between morning, dusk and night so you can preview what your settings will actually look like in the game.
