Dolby vision appears to really be meant for 12 bit displays but no consumer TVs are 12 bit, only 10.

Samsung seems to be getting showered with praises for its cheap and high quality tvs...that don't have Dolby vision.

So who here has had a TV with Dolby vision then bought a set that doesn't support it?

I'd say the practical benefit is that if your TV has Dolby Vision support, the inputs support closer to the 48GBPS max for HDMI 2.1, so you're able to support stuff like VRR, 4K/120, etc. Even though the average person probably won't have a 12-bit TV for a while, Dolby Vision does have a bit of a wider color range. But, in all honesty, unless you've got two TVs right next to each other somehow running the same content with one in DV, and the other in HDR10, you probably wouldn't notice a difference. And even then, it probably isn't enough to swear by one or the other.
