Says the 144hz panel is likely 250 nits and 70% sRGB: https://www.ultrabookre
Review of this model: https://www.pcworld.com/article/1...mance.html
"The 1080p is sufficient, however, for this size of panel, leaving the lackluster brightness as the display's biggest flaw. It's a rather dim display with dull colors that is best suited for gaming in a basement or other dark environment. In my office that receives some natural light, I had the display brightness set to its max at all times and often tapped the brightness-up button in a feeble attempt to increase it further."
144hz 1080p displays tend to be cheap/poor in all ways this year... unless there are manufacturer specs or reviews saying otherwise.
You should wait for the 5000s.

This is a good point. I was going based on the original post, but it's possible they're posting incorrect information. I'll edit my response. Good catch.
