HDR10 supports up to 4,000 nits peak brightness, with a current 1,000 nit peak brightness target, 10-bit color depth and capable of displaying everything in the Rec.2020 color space. Dolby Vision, on the other hand, supports up to 10,000 nits peak brightness, with a current 4,000 nit peak brightness target, 12-bit color depth and capable of displaying everything in the Rec.2020 color space.

I hope the HDR formats war is over by the end of 2018 and we can clearly see who is the format winner to buy a 4K TV with it AND HDMI 2.1 (to get 4K HDR 4:4:4)...

Does the brightness matter at such high values? 1000 nits is enough to blind the shit out of you. Isn't a peak of 1000 enough to create enough contrast for the image regardless of how bright the rest needs to be (because it can't go past a certain point while being tolerable for human vision)?

You have a point but the problem is there are too much HDR TV's and monitor right now who can only do 400-800 nits been 1000 a theorical peak number on the standard sheet.

Nothing can max the HDR10 spec yet, the hardware doesnt exist in consumer land and wont for a long time. By the time it matters they will have drafted a new spec. Also 12bits per colour will require higher than 32bits total which is the current standard.

Do not forget, even if Dolby Vision is offered on the disk, HDR10 is required to still be supported to remain in spec. All the difference is that Dolby and HDR10+ offers the ability for the contrast to vary frame by frame instead of the static value that plain HDR10 provides.
