Screen Brightness

[qnet]

Hello all.

I have a question about the Note 10+ screen. My Note's screen has a yellowish tint and doesn't get as bright as my S10+ or Oneplus 7 Pro. This is most noticeable at night.

I've turned off the bluelight filter and adaptive brightness and it still looks this way. I've took it for Samsung service at my local UbreakIfix shop. The tech ran test and said he didn't find anything wrong, but if it got worse, they could replace the screen.

I wanted to know if any of you have experienced this? Or is this by design by Samsung?

It's by screen. Some AMOLED screens are noticably yellower than others. It's a common complaint. (It shouldn't get "worse", it's just yellower.)

My Note 10+ isn't as bright as I would like either. I noticed the difference from my S10+ immediately. It just is what it is, I guess!! Whites are white here, it's just a dimmer panel I got.

I appreciate your responses. I thought it might be by design. All or most of my Samsung phones have been super bright, almost too bright. I guess I got unlucky this time.

The repair shop Samsung uses seems willing to change the screen, when they get them. I'm not sure I want to do it, and have to factory reset my phone again.

I might just live with it, unless it turns out to be an issue.

Have you tried changing the screen mode? There are also settings for changing the color balance.

Yeah, I've played with the settings but not too deeply. I've gone from Vivid to natural and back. I prefer vivid. That's about is far as I want to go. I don't mind the way the colors look, it mainly the background light.

Did you try the white balance all the way to COOL and VIVID MODE.

I actually did move the white balance a little more to cool in Vivid mode, and that helped.

As I just tried to do as you suggested (moving all the way to cool), and it changed right before my eyes. When I opened the screen mode section the screen immediately went dimmer and turned slightly yellow. When I switch it to natural it clears up and the background was more white.

This is only happening near the time when it starts to get dark outside. I'm starting to think this is by design, but still not sure. If it is by design, I don't understand the point of the bluelight filter, if they're doing it anyway.

any chance you have an f.lux type app installed or you're using the blue night mode light thing? I don't use it so I don't know what it's called, also do you have auto brightness on? wondering if any of these things might be affecting your experience.

My only question is why do you have 3 flagship phones?

No, I'm not using the blue light filter and auto brightness is off. I don't know what a f flux app is, that's something I'll have to look up.

I'm really into phones, not unlike the people who run this site, albeit on a smaller scale. I once spent a lot of time on these forums.
