Adaptive Brightness

[Tek720]

New Pixel 3 and the adaptive brightness does not seem to be learning. It turns the screen to about 67 percent brightness in light that needs 50 percent. I turn it down and then the next time it adapts it goes back up.

The menu says it learns when you adjust, but how long does that take? I feel like I turned it down about 15 times today.

Am I missing something?

Never worked well for me on the Pixel 2. I thought I was the only one.

I absolutely love the feature! Yes, you do need to teach it in different lighting environments, but it gets it perfect after a few days of " teachings"

I have it on and works better. It was awful first couple days though

This feature works really well for me. This is the best display I've had in a phone. It feels like it is right on top, it just pops.

 

[Jeremiah Bonds]

Fine I'll try again.

My screen is flickering like crazy hahaha

Seems to be getting better, but needs to learn faster.

It took almost a month for mine to learn on the Pixel 2. At that point is when it really seemed better. Finally going to the lowest setting at night and being brighter watching videos and stuff.

Agree. Learn faster.

I'm using mine without a noticable issue

Mine is starting to learn on day 3.. It's much more work than I thought it would be but I guess it'll be worth it. I never put in the work on my Pixel 2.

from what I read is usually about a week you won't have to tweak it that much .

Hang with it, JB! Takes a few days, for me it was about 4-6. I adusted mine a lot the first couple of days, less the next couple of days (but still fine tuned it). Around the 5th day, it didn't need me any more.

 

[Jeremiah Bonds]

Will do. Thanks

I've heard bad things about adaptive brightness.. is it a true battery drainer?

Funny, I don't think there was any learning at all on my S8, it just always seemed about perfect. I rarely ever had to touch screen brightness and now a year later I never do. It just works... uh oh lol.

I hadn't heard that about the adaptive brightness feature... though I have heard that about the adaptive battery feature, especially on the Pixel 2 series. Pixel 3, I haven't read as much on the topic.

Even LG 'auto brightness' was good. But I think, with adaptive brightness.. they made it so it'll change per person . Not based on the sensors, but based on the users wants and needs. Which to me, is pretty stinking cool.

Agreed.... If it works.
