I find it quite complicated myself. For example here is an answer someone gave to "is this TV HDR".

" It has HDR Premium - not HDR1000 like some of the upper tier models. This set CAN display HDR content, however it does not meet the HDR10 industry standard so it is much better than a set without any HDR, but not quite as good as sets that are HDR10 compliant."

So it is better than a regular TV - but not a true HDR TV.

I would also like to see the "cheapest" true HDR tv. All the ones I've seen have been quite expensive. I'm not sure if I am just looking in the wrong places, or if "true HDR" is really this expensive so far.

Yea I don't get it... Like is this an HDR tv?

It even has a link to their youtube video explaining the difference between HDR and non HDR. TV companies man... Da faq

Sort of (HDR is still a moving target)

That tv does support wide color gamut, however it does not qualify for the UHD premium logo

Certifies a 10 bit panel, >= 90% of DCI P3 color, and 0.05 to 1000 nits brightness (or 0.0005 to 540 for OLED)

The x800d can display enough of DCI P3, but peaks at 375 nits and only has an 8 bit panel.

The Sony x930d meets the specifications, as well as Samsung KS8000 to KS9500 series

Most tvs are only HDR ready, it's HD ready all over again.
