Planning to dual-boot with Windows either Debian or Mint on my OLED laptop. Are the tools that I have on Windows really useful? (pixel refresh, pixel shifting)

Do OLED panels typically have more than 8 bit per color brightness levels? I always thought hdr was more of a preprocessing step to prevent clipping unrelated to display tech.
HDR means High Dynamic Range. The range of values on an SDR display (Standard Dynamic Range) is 16-235 but the range of values on an HDR display is 0-255, that means that the color “black” on an HDR display is actually black and not “dark-gray”.
This is dumbed-down because I don’t know the more technical stuff.
Also it has nothing to do to “color saturation” (wrongly called “vividness”). That’s a dumb marketing thing since you can do the same using every display in this world.
That’s tone mapping, HDR is actually having more than 8 bits and often also more colorful colours than normal. I think 10 bits are common.
