Superb low brightness in night time

Blind at daytime...
Super dim when set to slowest

Half of display have another level of brightness at minimum.

Very satisfied. But of course, there is always room for improvement.

I am on custom ROM, RR-mido. I think the brightness should still be able to further reduce. I mean night mode is there. But still

Personally, I use Lux auto for my auto brightness
My settings
Day
1 = 4%
56 = 15%
375 = 30%
5000 = 100%
Night
1 = -25%
1000 = 30%

Outdoor visibility (max brightness)

Rate this thread to express how well you can see the Huawei Mate 9's display outdoors. In case you've been playing Minecraft for 18 months straight, you might not known how to get outside anymore. Well, find the door and walk through it. A higher rating indicates that it has very high maximum brightness and thus fantastic outdoor visibility in direct sunlight.

Very good screen brightness no problem here in Greece sunlight
Someone know if it's better than V20 in outdoor visibility?
That's one of my main problems with the V20.

No problem in sunnydays. But I have only one. When me someone calling, display is on very little brightness and I don't see why me calling. I don't know why? Mobile is lock.

Minimum brightness

You don't want to give your significant other yet another reason to yell at you while you're reading XDA in bed. Rate this thread to express what you think of the Huawei P8's display minimum dimness. A higher rating indicates that the display can get extremely dim, ideal for reading in very dark environments.

You are right:good:, the minimum display dimmness on P8 is much to high.
I tried to change this in framework-res.apk with the value
of "config_screenBrightnessSettingMinimum". Now the Dumpsys of Power Manager shows mScreenBrightnessSettingMinimum=1 but the display does not dim under 5.
How can we Fix this ????
Please Help

I'm trying to do something similar on the Google Pixel, and running into the same problem: Setting config_screenBrightnessSettingMinimum to 1 does not change the actual minimum screen brightness.
Did you ever solve this one?

The brightness is fine. It's not as good as the galaxy s8 but def better than HTC10 or honor 8\ p9. I watched basketball on it the other day and it was great.
light can be set to very dimmed but the color contrast is still vivd. Good!
I have the Pixel 2 and the Essential. I think the Essential gets brighter. Very satisfied on that front.
This phone is more bright then most people think because some people don't turn off the adaptive screen option when they want to maximize the brightness. It makes a huge different without that option.

True. Having this feature turned on by default should be punished to life in prison.
I mean you make the screen the highlight of the phone, and then nerf is by default??? WTF
It's ok, but not excellent.
I rate it approximately equal to most other devices in full sunlight outdoors. You will want to shade it with your body but, having done so, it's acceptable.

Apart from what I saw in video reviews the odor visibility is surprisingly good. I live where we have sun most of the day and temperatures are high (30c+) and I still can operate the phone even in direct sun light.
Is it really that bad outdoors as people say?

Not at all..
Trust me contrast ratio makes up for it and is not half bad.
I can totally see it in bright days with the Sun shining to it's glory.

Yeah Pie the brightness is very dim compared to Oreo
After the Pie update the Brightness its not bright anymore
Same here. To get the 30% brightness I had on Oreo, I have to go for 70% brightness on Pie. It feels awful
Adaptive brightness
I expected with the release of pie the auto brightness to be fixed . It is better than before but man not useful at all. Mostly keeps dimming the screen and makes it difficult to see. Also when i use slider and increase it, dims again after few seconds. What is the use of adaptive brightness then if it can`t understand my needs.

If you have polarised sun glasses and you want to use navigation with your phone... it is not possible. You cannot see the phone display with polarised sunglases!

Most Samsungs over the last few years have been up over 800 lumens for me, but this doesn't quite reach 600. It surprises me as it seems very bright. Does anyone else measure the lumens?
Is it brighter than note 8?
Not as bright as my N8. The auto brightness is broken, I think.
My autobrightness works well on my note 9. I don't see much difference in max brightness when in auto mode outside between the Note 9 and note 8 though. When not using autobrightness, having both phones at max, the Note 9 is slightly brighter and slightly whiter IMO.
FWIW, displaymate has rated the Note 9 brightest, most accurate, best display ever. Just like they did with the Note 8 last year, S9 this spring.... Sammy always makes the best displays, and currently the Note 9 has the best display available on any phone.

Nope. I think it's a software bug, when toggling between camera and phone sometimes the phone brightness will be brighter than before.

I think when its in manual mode, you dont get access to the full range of brightness, only after putting it into autobrightness mode. Perhaps Samsungs way of not letting the phone get too hot and igniting like the Note 7?

Its normal, all phone manufacturers do that.
This is because an automatic brightness will be able to increase brightness if it is needed for a short time (like when you are outside in the sun and use it for a few minutes) but it wears out the battery and screen so it needs to cut back after a little while. when you are on manual, the phone cannot regulate so the maximum they can allow has to be a safe level. Most phones also dim brightness when you play a graphics heavy game since temperature is death for your battery. its like thermothrottling for CPU. Totally normal and necessary. otherwise people would complain why their battery capacity is down to 70% after 6 months.
Good visibility but i prefer to have the full control of the max brightness without auto mode
