+1 to Vivid. Being able to work outdoors with a perfectly readable laptop has been life-changing.

Does it work on a laptop or so you mean iPad?

Mini LED Laptops like the 14 inch Macbook Pro. Peak brightness is over 1000 nits but it is locked out by default except for HDR content.

Doesn't that kill your battery though?

wouldn't it, in the long run, also lead to increased potential for screen damage?

Short answer, probably not damage but it will shorten lifetime, possibly not meaningfully. It’s still running within spec. It will ever so slightly increase the risk of premature failure as running anything closer to its limits tends to do. White LEDs dim and color shift gradually as they age so it will cause it to dim/shift faster. On a good display this is still 10s of thousands of hours of operation which is many years.
