HDR for TV is meaningful only if u have HDR player, HDR sources and HDR AVR as well.
HDR sources are available but are in genuine Bluray 4k HDR discs - consider the costs... and an HDR BD player
Then u need an HDR AVR too for pass thru if using home theater.
Good soft media 4K is still rare and hard to get (with good reason), let alone 4k HDR... trust me.
The time will come, maybe 3-4 years from now... but for now, HDR does not come into play for most people.
Still, highest grade soft media 1080p bluray HD audio is good enough, TV delivers very well with upscaling to 2160p.
media player.. there are all kinds... do not stinge when buying one if u r into big heavy files playback - price does matter!
HDR is becoming very common now as a lot of games in PS4 and movies/series in netflix are stream in HDR and dolby vision.HDR sources are available but are in genuine Bluray 4k HDR discs - consider the costs... and an HDR BD player

i think this will be the trend for for 2018. unless you plan to change the your TV next year, its good to go for a TV which supports HDR or Dolby Vision.
However, supporting HDR/Dolby Vision doesnt really mean that you can fully enjoy the quality. Other than OLED/Quantum Dot or Laser projector, most other TV could not really give you the full HDR effect.
