Brightness is the new spec to chase for monitors so they can better support HDR content. Companies think HDR will be the new selling point to get people to buy a new TV/monitor. It can make for a noticeably better image, but I don’t know if it’s compelling enough for the average consumer, especially if they already have a 4K TV. And, of course, a lot of existing video content hasn’t been shot for HDR.
