V20 display brightness?

[talon1189]

I know that there are a lot of new users that formally were used to Amoled display screens. I keep my brightness on my V20 between 65-70%. Just curious what other V20 users set there brightness level at?

Usually 50% indoors. 70% outdoors.

 

[Dimas de Leon]

About 60%

I've only had mine about 11 hrs. Early a.m. in darker rooms its at 37%. I haven't checked outdoors yet

I change lighting conditions quite a bit, so tried the auto brightness setting. I've never bothered with that in the past, but the V20 handles it quite well. It's rare that I have to fine tune it manually. If I'm using it at night or some place dark, I also have a screen filter app to dim it further than stock at zero.

is it brighter then the S7? When using my S7 on my friends drone controller to fly the Phantom 3 Pro, i find the contrast of the screen makes the low light and shadows too dark to see compared to the same video played back on a computer. makes it hard to fly the drone safely by screen alone. or getting the correct exposure for photos and videos.

Someone posted display is similar to Apple retina. In my ATT store the I noticed the iPhone 7 plus is much brighter and sharper than V20. Even the G5 looks brighter. Yes I checked and all display phones are set on max brightness. I was surprised the G5 looked brighter and how much brighter the Apple is. I'm not sure I could use the V20 in bright sunlight.

That's unfortunate a high end phone doesn't have a bright display. I need a bright display for flying my friends drone. Hows it compare to the iPhone 6+? I used to have that.

I've had the V20 from the first day and the screen is very bright outside. I use auto settings for brightness and keep it around 60%. I'm thinking anyone saying it's not bright outside either didn't use it outside or didn't have the settings right. I also use high contrast theme and the high contrast setting in Accessibility/Vision. I'm coming from a Note 7, btw.

I also feel the brightness of the V20 display is very good. I typically have mine set to auto and 50% and it's plenty bright for me.

I agree. I'm not using the high contrast setting, but (as much as it pains me to say it) the screen on my V20 is so much easier to see when I'm outside than it is on my Note 4. I have the auto brightness setting enabled on both phones, and the difference is amazing.

67% I would like to have it at 100% but battery would be bad.

 

[SupraLB]

I would go blind at 100%! This thing is super bright. I used the 100% for the outdoors the other day in direct sunlight, and it was great to actually be able to see the screen.

The colors used in menus and apps changes in many cases to orange which does really pop against the black background. I don't think that orange is any different in itself. It's just the contrast between that and the black that i think looks so good.

So after reading these comments, apparently I'm doing something wrong. When I had my Note 7, I left it on auto brightness which then learned how bright I like my screen for different ambient light settings and would adjust accordingly. With the V20, I can't adjust the brightness when it's set to auto. When I manually set it, then I can adjust accordingly, but if I set it back to auto, it goes back to whatever setting it thinks I would like...which is usually too dark for my liking. Is that normal behavior? After having the Note, this really irritates me.

These reviews on youtube about the phone display brightness being to dim in the sun light, washout, ect are comical!! These Samsung fan boys are trolling deep lol!!

Same here and haven't had any issues.

I usually keep it at about 70%. I kick it up to 100% when in my photo gallery and some apps featuring pics and videos.
