Brightness Management: What's the best way?

I don't know if anyone else feels this way, but I tend to think that the auto brightness setting on stock lollipop is WAY too bright, and, while of course it shows off the screen, it wastes battery life.
I can turn on power saving mode to try and dim the screen to some extent. I've also given Lux a try, but it didn't really seem to do much...
Does anyone have an idea for auto brightness which works similarly to how CM12.1 does it on this phone? Where you can set how bright you want it to be, but it still compensates for ambient light?
Thanks!

I like screen filter. It's very simple and you can pick which percentage you want. I've gotten it lower than stock. I'd recommend giving it a try. Couldn't hurt.
Not sure about the ambient light bit, last time I used it was on my note 2. It may be available.

There's a setting for ambient light too.

Max out screen brightness

There are some occasions where my screen just isn't bright enough. I turn off auto and set to max. However, when I expose the light sensor to direct sunlight it brightens further. Is there any way to make the screen that bright all the time?

Hi ,
As far as i can remember ,there's a good reason
Samsung"configured" it that way .(you described)
Think in terms of"screen burn in " (Damage to your screen etc )
Not good for your device.
Good luck

If your display is set to Adaptive Mode, your screen will change the screen tone (including white) based on your surroundings, just like the True Tone feature on the iPhone X.

Well, I have A6 plus, but I don't have experienced like what you wrote. I can only making it manual in Adaptive Mode. Do I need switch on/off something to work it automatically?

Well, the screen tone changing is barely noticeable unless you compare when you go from one place to another. I have my screen mode on Adaptive Mode and the full screen color balance is on the middle.

Thank you. Also what I don't understand, if I'm using other screen mode like Adaptive, and when I switch on the Blue light filter, it switches back to Adaptive mode with that tiring vivid colour. Why it's just don't apply the Blue light filter in the applied Screen mode? Meh...

Contrast settings and manual brightness issues

The first issue regarding contrast settings is that on 10.2.28 at least, if I set the phone to "standard contrast", sometimes upon waking it, it forgets that setting and looks exactly as if set on "automatic contrast", even though standard is still checked. Just confirmed this as my screen looked rather blue, changed to "automatic" and it remained identical, then I changed it back to standard and it finally got the desired white balance.The point of "standard contrast" is that it should be CONSTANT, not ever changing... I've got the phone 4 days ago (enjoying it overall) and I've got to ask if this has been an ongoing issue or is it new in 10.2.28?
The second issue is that with auto brightness OFF, the phone still bumps to max manual brightness when the sun shines directly on the sensor. It's not as annoying as the first issue but I'd rather it would not do that. This is how the mi 9 behaved since release or just a new bug?
Ultimately, can you guys point me to the most effective way of reporting bugs to xiaomi?

I'm on the same rom version... I don't have any issues with contrast changing like you said but I'm on increased contrast at all times... There's no way of disabling the screen boosting brightness in sun light regardless of auto brightness settings... It's sunlight 2.0 mode and actually boosts the brightness higher then the max on the brightness slider.

Question Mi 11 Pro - brightness issue

Hi. I am sorry if I put this in the wrong section but I couldn´t find where to. I have the device for more than a year now and it is awesome. However, I have problem with display brightness. When I am outdoors on a beautifull bright sun, the dispaly is at its max for a few minutes than it gets dimmer and there is no way to get it brighter. Auto mode or manual with sunlight mode on, it is the same. Is there a way to fix that or is it just the way it is?
