> a peak brightness of 2 million nits.

This seems crazy to me. 1000 nits is about the brightest most HDR monitors will go (basically the light of a thousand candles on a square meter) would’t a nits measurement in the millions be dangerous levels of light?

I think it is so that it can be seen in bright daylight. The amount of the light that would make it to the eye would be a lot less than that.

I'm guessing that is the brightness of the display chip which is only 2.4mm x 2.02mm, not the brightness at the projected size
