I recently noticed that red colour is not red anymore when I turn on the X-Reality Engine, while playing some 4K content, sometimes FHD content too, the problem is slightly noticeable with blue and green, but not like the red, I tried to turn off X-Reality and the colour reproduction returned to normal, so i took some screenshots to both On and off conditions, you can check it for yourselfs and see what I mean.
Triluminos (standard) is On, on both Sides

and by x reality you mean turning on "video image enhancement" in display settings?
If you're talking about Color gamut profiles, anything apart from Professional mode screwes up the colors, the Super-Vivid mode is dreadful, it's like colors scream at you and the image looses all detail.
If you're talking about Video Enhancement, it shouldn't really affect the colors that much, as far as I've noticed it mostly sharpens the image and adjusts the contrast to make the shadows darker and lit areas brighter. It does work nice, but I still keep it off because it does make the image look a bit unnatural.
The bottom images look much nicer to me that the top. It seems like the X-Reality tries to rebalance the gamut to look more natural, after it was oversaturated by Triluminos profile.
I'd recommend switching to Pro gamut mode and Video Enhancement off, it produces most natural color. If you do need a bit more contrast and sharpnes, turn on Video enhancement, but for natural color leave the gamut on Pro. Triluminos ruins the colors.
The top images are over-saturated and lacking some detail. You might have gotten used to that kind of color gamut, but it doesn't look natural.
Dude never use any color mode except professional (sRGB)mode it show you the natural colors which you can't see like that on Samsung phones(one of reasons I hate Samsung) on you don't need to turn on xreality for a 4k video.

Ok, thanks for the advice, i always use my phone on sRGB mode, and X-Reality on, because like you said it gives the most realistic colours above all. But the Triluminos technology is gorgeous when you switch to it try turning off video enhancement (X-Reality) and you'll see how beautiful it is, as far as I know, Triluminos technology don't oversaturate the image, it just gives you more colour range, and boosts the sRGB colour gamut to 136%, unlike Super Vivid Mode, (Bravia Engine 3).
But what I'm trying to say is, when I turn on both Triluminos and X-Reality at the same time, the X-Reality screws up the colours especially the Red, try that for yourself and you will see. This issue doesn't happen with Professional mode.

I agree, Samsung phone produce oversaturated colours it looks so cartoonnish, but as far as I know Triluminos technology doesn't saturate the image at all, it just gives you more colour range, up to 136% of sRGB, all you need to do is just use this feature without video enhancement mode on (X-Reality) because it screws up the colours, this doesn't happen with Professional mode.
For me I use sRGB mode all the time with X-Reality on.
Check those screenshots, but this time on Full HD video, you can clearly see the X-Reality Engine adjusts the colours well, unlike the 4K video.

Just wondering if there's an app or a way to adjust screen settings like a TV? I've gotten used to the nice black levels of my galaxy s3 amoled screen and the Asus just doesn't look as good. Adjusting contrast and color saturation would be great!
I think there are some apps for color saturation adjustments but nothing for changing the contrast.
just notice that there are three options in the screen mode settings - dynamic, standard and movie.
dynamic seems a bit brighter for me. but will that drain more bettery?
anyway just to inform those who nvr notice this take a look at it :cyclops:

I prefer the Standard mode. Battery consumption however is not dependant on the color settings, therefore select the mode that suits best to you, and live happy!
I find dynamic to give me the best look. It's more than just increasing the brightness. I think it changes the clolor scheme or saturation slightly. Just look at settings icons to the left of it as you switch through different modes. Going from standard to dynamic gives it a very noticeable difference in the color of icon. Seems like its brighter along with color being more pronounced or saturated. Movie mode is like dynamic except seems a little Darker. Dynamic mode seems to allow you to see small details better.
As much as I love this phone, i have to say that I hate the camera which produces ugly over saturated pictures.
I even tried other camera apps including google camera, still the same result.
Is there a fix for this?
The phone does have a image editor where you can adjust color saturation and other color settings. The inconvenience is that you can do this after you take the picture.
Go to professional mode and under white balance (wb) choose the light bulb or some other cooler balance.

Thanks
Just a heads up to everyone who has an S10e The color saturation of the screen even when Vivid is enabled doesn't display the saturation correctly... To fix this "enable blue light filter" and set it at the lowest possible then go back and look at a picture, you will see how it is no longer washed out.
You can see the correct color saturation with "blue light filter" off while in the recent apps screen but once you return to the image it washes out. I figured out applying "blue light filter" corrects it for now!
I hope this helps!!!
I assume they are going to fix this in a future update. Cheers! ?

many thanks! wondered why it was looking washed out.

Seleting vivid to me doesn't do what it should be doing.
I have found that applying "blue light filter" and setting it's effect to minimum fixes the color saturation and reverses the washed out look on images. Another way is to go into visibility enhancements -> color adjustment -> then either apply a filter there like "Tritan" or "personalize color" and follow the steps. To me I cannot see any difference between the above steps or just simply applying "blue light filter" set to minimum. To me both look to correct the color saturation about the same.

Hey is this happening after the latest update or its happening right out of the box
Out of the box. Having it too
We should write to Samsung about this so they could release an update guys !
Good catch!
Now I know the reason why my Motorola Z3 Play displays beautiful colors when browsing my pictures and the S10e looks dull.
I thought Motorola's AMOLED display is oversaturated. It turns out that there is a bug in the display of the S10e.
Thanks for this. I just applied blue light filter and now it's fixed.
I don't notice a huge difference
Can someone tell me how to see how Natural & Vivid are washed out?
It makes quite a bit of difference on natural. By default white looks kind of yellowish. By enabling the blue light filter on minimal it looks like theres actually more blue added to the color balance. Like the default has a blue light filter applied that's stronger and it gets unset by the filter.
May be that it's by design though. They did make a point that the s10's displays have 30% or so less blue light because it's better for health.
Before I had the screen set to vivid, temp centered and then the green slider all the way to the left and the red slider almost all the way to the left. And the blue slider all the way to the right. This seems like a much better color balance than the default as well. Offcourse you do get the oversatured old style 'Samsung' colors this way. It makes the whites seem a lot whiter.
I also noticed this when I compared the displays of my S8 side by side my new S10e. I used the same content and the colour saturation on the s10e was noticeably duller. The blue light filter trick on lowest seems to have resolved it for me also.
I'll have to tinker with the vivid colour channel settings for fun to see if that does the same.
Good catch
have you Tried using the use sRGB option in developer options?
Does anyone notice that the dark colors especially grey get significantly brighter when using 90hz compared to 60 hz. It's very annoying and can be seen when using the dark mode on WhatsApp or the dark mode of the phone and pulling down the notification shade. The greys become way too bright and the display seems washed out:crying:
Grey looks normal to me, Oxygen 11 has more grey element which i personally like
