Is this monitor Vesa HDR1000 certified? null

No. This is primarily because Samsung wants to tout 2000nits peak brightness on the spec sheet for marketing purposes but it only achieves that on HDR test slides. In actual content it does not satisfy the requirements for VESA DisplayHDR 1000 spec.

Thankfully I'm not pulling numbers out of thin air and the monitors HDR performance was determined a month ago - 830nits peak brightness in real content, 2600nits momentarily in test slides because Samsung cheats and detects test conditions temporarily boosting brightness so reviews boast big numbers: https://forum.pcmonitors.info/topic/samsung-s32bg850-odyssey-neo-g8-review-notes-from-translated-video/

No. The other answer is correct that this is because Samsung wants to invent their own labels for marketing purposes, but we have no idea what the real-world HDR capabilities of this display will be as of now. Anyone claiming that it won't be capable of meeting that certification is making an assumption.

On the VESA site of certified displays they don’t even list HDR2000 which this is. I know this is HDR2000 test though.

It averages out at 1000nits, although samsung claims 2,000 nits of peak brightness under ideal conditions, also there are so many light control zones that the quality is near that of oled
