Screen Brightness - Huawei Mate 10 Guides, News, & Discussion

Recently bought mate 10. Compare to my current mate 9, I noticed the mate 10 screen brightness isn't as bright as the mate 9. Wonder why manufacturer decrease the maximum brightness of newer phone.

Max brightness is reached only when in auto mode+sunlight. Check the gsmareana review. Otherwise indoors the brightness is lower and cannot be manually toggled to reach the max brightness the display is capable off. Personally the brightness is more than enough for me in real usage. I use auto brightness and toggle it to about 50% brightness.

Always force video enhancer

Many reviewers say that they can't get the 1200 nits advertised brightness. I'm fairly certain that the note 8's display is limited by power consumption limits for whatever reason. However if you use any app that supports the video enhancer the display looks to me to be 2x the brightness. I assume samsung did this to increase the battery life. I want to know if there is a way to always run the screen in its maximum brightness mode? Maybe we could develop an app that always runs the display in its maximum brightness.
I would like to force the phone to use video enhancer in all apps including the full ui.the demo units in the store are somehow overiding the screen max brightness and they stay on the full 1200 nits the entire time.ive comapred retail note 8s with auto brighness turned off and set to optimised and the brightness on full.the demo units are brighter on max brightness than retail units.its like the demo units are somehow forcing the screens to full brightness potential but all the time and thatswithout auto turned on.and to get that type of brightness on the retail units you can use video enhance but that only works for yt and another app i cant remeber.
But the demo note 8 phones are brighter than retail handsets on full brighness
I think this would be bad for the screen with time, not to speak about batt wear

"Auto" Brightness

Loving the Mi 8, especially after the 10.1.1 update, however the "auto" brightness Useless. Virtually every time you unlock the phone in low(ish) light its reset to a very low setting. I've had phones from many manufacturers over the last few years and they all seem to have managed to string together a half decent auto-brightness offering.
Does anyone know of this is something they're working on?
I have the same issue
I love everything about the new update but that issue made me hate the update. Anyone with a fix? Appreciate it.
Not sure if the same brightness bug is impacting AOD too, which reacts to light levels but so aggressively at night that it actually turns off.
Auto Brightness on MIUI has always been dodgy as ****. There's workarounds - check out Velis auto brightness - but they're an additional battery drain since the app is constantly running.
I felt like it's not that bad on the MI 8 though.
Cheers
Just giving Lux Lite Dash a go and seems to be doing the trick. You can manually adjust when needed but then commit to memory for the next time a specific lux is reached. I guess over time, like most phones, it will then be customised how you like it.
Will see what battery life is like though...
So far so good. Battery seems to be at the same level with Lux Lite Dash running.
Lux Lite had issues in the end. The max brightness was lower than that of the phone. Switched to Velis which seems to have an option to allow the phones auto (and max brightness) to kick in when there's bright sunlight.

Moto X4 Pie update made my screen dimmer, is this normal?

I just updated my Prime edition of the X4 to pie finally and was wondering if anyone else's brightness has been affected? I was running about 65% on Oreo but on Pie I have to set to 85% now for it to be as bright as I did before. I have adaptive brightness disabled. Just wondering if this is normal, thanks!
yes
i do set brightness at 0 in normal use
but in some outdoor/bright light cases 25 or 50% used to do the job on oreo
now in pie, i have to keep it at 50 or 75% in same conditions to achieve same level of brightness
but 100% brightness in both oreo and pie appears to be the same
Hello.
I think it's because the brightness slider in pie now uses a logarithmic algorithm as compared to oreo one which used a linear scale.
Here are some discussions about it-

Max brightness S10 lower than S8?

I just bought a 3m old S10 and unfortunately the auto max brightness is a bit lower in direct sunlight than my 1y old S8, while according to reviews it should be significantly higher.
I can still read the screen outdoors in the sun, but with sunglasses on it is a bit more difficult than my S8. It certainly does not look as "eye melting" bright as some reviews mentioned.
Both have everything set up correctly to allow for auto max brightness outdoors (Adaptive brigtness on, Vivid mode).
Now I am wondering if this an isolated issue with my device.
Has anyone else noticed this in comparison with a S8 or S9?

Question Mi 11 low screen brightness

Hi all. Sorry for my bad english.
I buy xiaomi mi 11 in my country.
But this screen brigthnes not high.
I turn of auto brightness, no any intelligent mode.
But on full screen brightness level, my old phone htc u11 and my wife phone s9+(exynos) more brighter than mi 11.
Why? Everyone in youtube, every web site say/write this phone typcal 700 nit, peek 1500 nits"
.
I can't compare with the models you refer, however, comparing to my old Oneplus 5 and my company Samsung A42, the Mi 11 does a good job.
peak (highest) brightness is only reached in Auto brightness mode and when under strong light
