You cant even get qualified as HDR below 400, and 400 is already ... a bit meaningless. Hollywood and TV authors content for 1000, and theres a mighty disconnect between these first few generations and what the content requires.
To make this worse, my several year old U2414Hs can reach 280 at 100%. Those are inexpensive, standard, 1080p IPS office monitors, that have rather good color consistency for being low $2xx each... and also like 5 years old.
- contravariant 6y agoI reckon contrast is more important than peak brightness. The eye is good at adjusting to brightness, and 1000 nits just seems overkill. You might need that much if the TV is surrounded by a white wall directly lit by the sun, but in normal indoor lighting conditions it just seems excessive.
- magicalhippo 6y agoEverything within reason of course, but even in a batcave the increased brightness of a proper HDR display is quite noticeable.
- contravariant 6y agoIt might be noticeable, but as someone who has trouble dialling down the brightness far enough to make them comfortable to look at, I'm not sure if I'd want it to be that bright. That might just be a personal preference though, obviously.
