How to identify HDR and non-HDR photos in iPhone 12 Pro Max

Hi, I am using iPhone 12 Pro Max having 15.1 iOS. I am unable to differentiate between HDR and non-HDR photos. HDR icon is only appearing with photos taken by my previous iPhone X.

Is there any way to identify between them?

Why can I not import my HDR photos from my iphone 13 to my PC? I use an iphone 13 and mostly shoot Live photos - with the View Full HDR setting ON in the Photos settings When I review the shots - especially outdoor landscapes, I can see the HDR effects clearly on the images as I review them. If there was a wide range of brights and shadows in the image, the HDR image will "pop" with details in the bright areas and the dark areas. Kind of a glow... It typically improves the dramatic effect of the shot. But when I try to move or copy those shots off the phone to my pc...the images do not show the HDR effect, only an "averaged" exposure...as if there was no HDR turned on... I cannot seem to copy the improved HDR version... Anyone have any reason what I ma doing wrong - or why this is happening?

Metadata does not show that it is HDR or not.

Thanx SravanKra for your reply but my question is related to HDR photos, not related to videos.
