Has anyone tried if games have these same problems too or are these problems Limited to video playback only?
I've been told it's a software issue by Samsung staff via Chat on the Samsung Members app.
I had screenshots of the chat on the Samsung Community EU, I'll try link URL below. Initially I noticed that HDR playback wasn't working via the native video player and YouTube. But also later added on the black crush thing. I think the screenshot are on the 3rd page of the topic. Also have examples of HDR playback issue on the first page via a link.

Please the the link above for comparison photos, S8 on top and S9+ below.
Some are of the native video player showing Rise of the Tomb raider, Forza Horizon 3 4K HDR clips.
YouTube, both 1080p HDR with details in the photos of the different videos.

Maybe that was quick and easy to fix but the rest is taking more time? Hopefully they are working on it.So instead of fixing the couple banding present everywhere, they change the home screen wallpaper. That's literally it in the patch notes.

You may want to return your handsets...
This was in response to me emailing them links to this topic where some have stated a replacement has fixed the problem.
I've now replied asking whether I can be confident that should I go through with a replacement, the new handset would not have the fault.
