Not great. LCD has trouble with very low brightness

I've never seen an IPS display brightness get as low as this. Phone arena measured it at 2 nits.
Not many people need their screen to get that low but for those who do, it's there.

Screen can get really dim on manual setting
For me, the lowest brightness setting was never needed, but if there are users that want to take advantage of this then it is there.

Anyone have issues with the adaptive brightness feature lowering the screen brightness way too low? In a room where the light source is in front of me (behind the phone since it's pointing at me) the phone screen will dim and make it impossible to read. Increasing the brightness doesn't help as it will get way too bright when something bright comes on behind me for a few seconds.

Omg I LOVE how low the brightness gets, its perfect for waking up at 3 am and checking the time. I'm one of those people who keeps the screen on the lowest brightness possible, never use auto brightness. I've never seen a screen have as huge of a range of brightness as this. You can go from "I can't see wtf is on the screen" to "AHHHHHH! MY EYES, THEY ARE BURNING!" in half a second.

Auto brightness not lowering all the way

Has anyone else noticed this? On auto brightness, my phone doesn't turn itself all the way down to minimum brightness even in total darkness. If I disable auto brightness and put it on minimum it actually gets darker. It's not a huge deal but I like not having my eyes burned by solar brightness if I look at my phone at 3 am, lol.

it's still too bright at min brightness, had to use an filter app.
Yep agreed. I did find turning on power save seemed to reduce brightness.

Yea, I found out quickly when I switched to the 10 that Powersaver just can't be turned on while outside in sunlight.
Powersaver does the following:
Conserves CPU Power/ Reduce Screen brightness/ Turn off vibration feedback/Put data connection to sleep when screen is off (or at least it used too)
We used to have the option to enable/disable (see attached image) these features when powersaver is turned on, now we just have the option to turn it on/off. Wish we still had the option to disable certain things like brightness, or vibration.
Yeah, turning on power save will reduce brightness, it work.

Better than iPhone and dont need to jailbreak/root to filter it down even more. Very happy
wish can really reduce to minimum, so not to bright on dark room

The screen (with minimum brightness) was hurting my eyes when the room's light was turned off.
The minium brighteness is still very bright.
i use 3rd party apps from play store to decrease the minimum brightness even more(to the point where you cant see anything). but in sunny outdoors, its hard to use the phone even when you turn on outdoor mode but overall im ok with the phone's brightness
You can install an app which reduces the brightness alot (i think its called Night Mode)

Outdoor visibility (max brightness)

Rate this thread to express how well you can see the Razer Phone 2'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.

Something have noticed is that when I start gaming at max brightness the screen dims a bit nothing major but it is noticeable. I don't have auto brightness control on and do it manually anyone else noticed this?.
You buy rp just to play my world. Mmmmmmm. Ok, I also played many years ago. As for the mobile phone, I think his brightness is still good, and the game has not suddenly dimmed (think about it, other games will not have this problem)

Question Flashing maximum screen brightness

Hello again.
Does anyone else find that the maximum brightness of the screen tends to dim from a "normal" maximum heat to an overexposed one? It happens that I am using my mobile very frequently on the street and despite having the brightness at maximum, the screen is usually dark. But from time to time as the Operating System detects that there is a lot of sunlight and increases the brightness much more (that's precisely what I'm looking for, use that maximum brightness manually, not automatically). I can't find a way to adjust that brightness value, I thought "Dark Aware" would help me but nothing to do with it. Any way to turn up that brightness?
