For their power saving features to work, OEM's will have to redesign MB and display controllers. That is going to take a while.
So I was just saying that with the first batch of 10 inch screens there will be no difference in terms of power consumption.
(eventually) all else being equal I'd go with a PQ display.

Even the first batch should bring minor improvements. For instance in situations were you would otherwise need to increase the backlight to overcome external light sources. And it would only take a firmware update to let you completely disable the backlight.
But yeah, the major improvements to battery life won't come until the hardware
and software has been optimized for these displays.
