Does anyone really care about HDR, that much? You're gonna tell me all of a sudden 1080p looks like shit. And I'm gonna be blown away with HDR. The example picture basically looks like someone just lowered the contrast, in the SDR one. This is basically like them just adding another speaker in surround sound setups. IF HDR was sooo important. Why wasn't it done when HDMI was first mapped out. The article even says "much closer to real life". So is there gonna be another upgrade to HDR in 20 years? UHDR?


This new HDR standard is said to cover at least 93% of DCI P3, or about 50% of the human color vision, up from 35%.

Woooo numbers. Still don't care about HDR. Especially that there's still upgrades needed. To reach 100%. All the comparison shots just look like someone set the contrast down. Because I know my 2009 LCD doesn't actually look like the SDR image, they show. The simulation images are pretty worthless. The same problem when someone is trying to convey 3D or VR. I'm still gonna say it's basically the equvalent to adding more speakers.
