The Sony X95K has incredible HDR peak brightness. It really makes highlights pop for a satisfying HDR experience. The EOTF also tracks the target PQ curve perfectly, which means that it displays scenes at their correct brightness. There's a smooth roll-off for content mastered below 4000 nits, so you don't lose details in bright scenes with most content.
These measurements are in the 'Custom' HDR Picture Mode with the Brightness at its max, Contrast at '90', Color Temperature set to 'Expert 2', Auto Local Dimming and Peak Luminance on 'High', and HDR Tone Mapping on 'Gradation Preferred'. Setting Auto Local Dimming to 'Medium' results in a slightly dimmer image, but it isn't enough to be noticeable.
If you find the image too dim, use the same settings but adjust Contrast to its max, Gamma to its max, HDR Tone Mapping to 'Brightness Preferred', and Advanced Contrast Enhancer to 'High'. This results in a noticeably brighter image, as you can see in this EOTF, but it doesn't change the peak luminosity.
