Hello!

With all iPhone LCD phones I had auto brightness off and the brightness set to 100%. Every phone, no issues. When I got the X last year, I noticed that doing that made the phone very hot and killed the battery. I never experienced this with the LCD iPhones. A bit disappointed, but oh well.

So, what display settings do you all use with your OLED iPhone displays?
 
I use auto brightness on my XS Max, and did on my X as well...I dont see any reason in wasting battery having the brightness on 100% when it's not needed. The auto brightness works well for me in recognizing when I need high or low brightness...also how do you deal with 100% brightness waking up in the morning?? Talk about blinding...
 
I set both my XsM and my iPad mini to 15% brightness in a completely dark room and then let auto brightness move it around based on the environment. Works for me.
