Hey,
There is a lot of confusion when it comes to HDR if i look online. I know that HDR basically extends the color range from 16 million to 1.07 billion colors in HDR.
But im kinda confused when it comes to the backlight level. Im NOT talking about the contrast, but purely about the backlight level(aka the brightness of the panel)
Is it really nessisary to have the backlight at max for HDR? I tried it and even with bias lights its not really confortable whenthe screen is going to a really white screen when for example kratos exits a cave or a game where the loading screens are all white.
Just a sidenote SDR and HDR are basically just as bright when the backlight level is the same so 25 backlight for SDR is about the same as 25 backlight with HDR(maybe even a tad brighter with hdr at 25)
Edit: ive got a QLED tv from samsung, the q70r
