Sony is starting to master more movies at this higher brightness level and believes the industry will follow.

Were now seeing peak brightness levels of over 2,000 nits on mini-LED TVs such as the newSamsung QN90D.

Well have to wait until we can test the Bravia 9 to determine its actual peak brightness.
