Isn't this what quantum dots are supposed to do? My new QDOLED TV is already uncomfortable at full brightness IMO.

Exactly my thoughts as well. At 1000 nits peak the OLED screens I have are already painfully bright under "ideal" viewing conditions (i.e., dim lighting), and easily visible in poor conditions (sunny day, curtains/blinds open). What on earth are they building them brighter for? Outdoor daytime viewing?

HDR I think

Partially HDR but also full field SDR brightness. They're a lot dimmer than competing LCD screens (approx 250 nits at 100% brightness).
