Screen brightness

**carracerz14** · 05-12-2012, 04:18 PM

What do you guys keep your brightness at? I currently have mine on auto, I get about 14-16 hours of battery life with 4-5 hours of screen on time. I am a heavy user lol. What about you guys?

I do auto and have my battery last over a day if I decide not to charge. I charge every night though as you never know when you'll need the power. I like my screen bright when outside but dim inside so I can't settle on an exact percentage.

I keep mine at the minimum, with it going to full brightness outside. I think its pretty bright on low. It is as bright as my old LG Ally was at full brightness.

do you manually change it everytime you go outside?

75%. Doesn't really drain battery set that high. Still get 2 days between charges.

Mine's on Auto. I went 2d12h10m to drop to 10%.

I don't think I could go that long. My screen time is usually around 4-5 hours within a 8-10 hour period and my phone is at 25 by 16 hours. I could go forever if I wasn't looking at my phone so much

I keep mine on auto. Battery life ranges based on how much I actually use the phone. Never have to worry about the battery unless I run WiFi Hotspot...and then I have it plugged in. Running Hotspot still gives me a good amount of usage (8-10 hours depending on if I use the phone while I'm doing it).

I use an app called My Profiles to control different situations. It switches brightness to 25% at work, 50% at home and Auto in car mode. Today I made it over 12hrs with 50% battery left. Thats on 4G with moderate use and a live wallpaper. Not too shabby:-)

Yes I do. A little bit if a hassle but it's not that big of a deal to me.

i keep it off.

I keep my brightness level on auto. Works out well.

**carracerz14** · 05-13-2012, 02:19 AM

Yeah auto is definitely nice, its awesome to have a phone that can actually last all day with 4g on+ auto brightness. I just wish the change was a little more smooth like it was on my nexus. Hopefully when ics comes out that will be fixed
