hdr is absolutely useless without oled and in future micro led it needs 600-2000 nits to show the color range dont let xiaomi bamboozle. but you still untung on the high refresh rate.
personally a resolution guy i mean misses av also 60fps max so i managed get a 4k monitor for 760

many people don't understand what proper HDR actually means. this is because marketing by these brands has been very deceitful to avg people
HDR means:
- high peak brightness. high end OLED TVs now hit >1500 nits at 2% and 10% window. mid-end OLED TVs also easily >1000 nits around that window percentage.
- high contrast ratio. this means when black, it is true black. ur RM300 IPS display has a backlight that is not true black, resulting in near shit contrast ratio (black becomes dim grey). when they rate 1500:1, it's usually rated in the most optimal brightness at 0%-10% brightness to reach that figure (because IPS backlight will be much dimmer). when set >20% brightness, it's where its shittiness happens (usually drops down to 1000:1 or lower).
- high DCI-P3 & rec.2020 color gamut coverage (much wider than sRGB). true HDR display covers >95% DCI-P3 and >75% rec.2020
- 10-bit color depth or more. msi pro mp251 e2 is only 8-bit (6-bit + FRC some more)
most important ones are high peak brightness and high contrast ratio. any1 of these missing, means instant fake HDR. many HDR400 IPS monitors are fake HDR as well. usually they put "HDR ready", because it only means it can receive HDR input, but it will fail to produce real HDR output
to get true HDR, get OLED TVs, OLED monitors or mini-LED TVs with FALD. mini-LED monitors in malaysia market is kong
