Don’t think that will help, make sure you have your auto brightness on sir 😁😂

Agree, when are you swapping your phone out for me? so I can see if some of these panels are actually brighter. 🤔😂
Hey, I thought this thread was about screen *tint* and not brightness 
Would hate to see it locked after 283 pages for going off topic.

I’ve had that many tints, I’ve actually tasted the rainbow, yellow, green and now dark and red tint 👅🌈Hey, I thought this thread was about screen *tint* and not brightness

I know the answer to the question but do you have color filters on?
I never mess with any of the filters, I leave them on default settings.
Nah mate, it’s typical OLED luck of the draw. Sometimes you get a green, red, yellow, dark panel.
Overrated technology if you ask me, hopefully micro led replaces it.
Yep, but I Know Micro Led will have huge problems with the individual's backlights don't turn off.
At least it won’t be yellow, green, red, won’t have off axis color shift, or one screen being darker than the other. 😁Yep, but I Know Micro Led will have huge problems with the individual's backlights don't turn off.
If Apple added a color calibration feature, 90% of these issues would be resolved.
Tim Cook doesn’t think we’re smart enough for a color calibration feature. 😊🤦♂️😂
Even an extremely basic color calibration feature would solve it. I almost feel like we should be spending our energy each year advocating for that instead of continuing the perfect panel quests
Yep It's a win-win for the consumer because they don't have to switch phones and Apple doesn't have to exchange, they will save billions in exchanges.Even an extremely basic color calibration feature would solve it.

Yep, their returns and customer services will be inundated by user error calls.
Huawei had a great user color calibration setting. Setting was almost infinite.

I think you may be overestimating the amount of people that care enough to go through that exchange process (despite our nerd outcry every year.) Still a net positive. They could even bury it in the accessibility settings if they don’t want people to use it accidentally or whatever.
Speaking of filters, I had another crazy idea tonight. Even at its lowest intensity, the blue color filter definitely makes the display cool to the point of visible inaccuracy. So… I added another layer to the craziness by enabling the blue filter, and then offsetting its cool tint with Night Shift- but Night Shift carefully dialed in through the settings where you can decrease its intensity. The result is that I’ve achieved seemingly more granular control by making the display much cooler, and then *slightly* warmer again. Surprisingly, given the multi-layered shenanigans, it didn’t appear to mess with color and contrast ratio too bad, and got me ever so closer to the Goldilocks 65K white point.
Tomorrow I will compare to my “golden sample” iPhone X that’s perfectly white and see if I can’t damn near match it by playing with the sliders for 10 min.
I’ve done that also. Meaning used color filter plus night shift at it’s minimum setting but enabled nonetheless. Seems nice, but Trutone is still off here.

Not for me even zero brightness. Very uniform.
