We take these measuements using the best settings for watching a movie. Cineam mode is generally the one we use. Wherever possible, we set the white levels at 150 to 170 cd/ cd/m², although, obviously, we measure the maximum brightness of white separately.
It is identical in terms of spec, panel and electronics. Only the brightness can vary very slightly, modifying the contrast. According to our tests, and the manufacturers we have asked, the results of one size can easily be extrapolated to identical models of different sizes.
