I can hardly see my phone screen in the sunlight

I can hardly see my screen in the sunlight, Am I the only one that has this problem? If not is there a type of screen protector that can fix this?

Go into Settings, then Display and then select Brightness...then adjust accordingly. You need a bright screen when the sun is very bright. There maybe an auto option too.

This happened to me too. Second day with my phone I took it out geocaching. I couldn't see the screen unless I was under.a.shade tree! I was so bummed because the caching app is awesome.

Two days later a friend told me to try turning the brightness up. Duh, I had it on 20%!

Now I know to turn it up when I use it to cache.

lol I know how you feel I have a noob question (prior iphone4 user) what is geocahing?

It's a game. You find hidden treasures outside that people hide, using a GPS. I love it!

Put it on auto brightness. That way outside it'll set itself to 100% but inside it'll go to 25% to save power.

Hi forgetful Thanks that's what I'm going to do.

See I had mine on 100% and it was still bad. But on a fascinate it was ok. The advantage must go to the SAMOLED screen vs this one on the tb.

yeah, mine is set to 100% and it's still not as vibrant (no phone pun i swear) as other phones. i'm content with the phone, but wish the screen were brighter. doesn't seem like it pops like other phones.

Hi Brown, I hope that by putting it on 100% I can see something because I couldn't see a thing yesterday.

Don't go outside.

My Dinc was noticeably better outside than the TB.
