Hi to all.
I've received my F3 today. I'm so happy.
The only flaw I've seen on it is about its brightness : it seems to be a bit low and we must push it quite almost 100 % to have decent brightness. To those who have received the phone : did you notice that ? I'm not talking about dimming but regular brightness for regular use (not heavy use)
Thanks for your answers
I'm yet to able to order mine .
However, listening to reviewers the brightness curve apparently wasn't very even. Might be able to be fixed in a custom ROM
Yeah maybe.
I can not confirm. In very bright surroundings, like outside when the sun is shining, it gets very bright. I have nothing to complain about.
I don't have any complaints either, the maximum brightness is excellent. Compared it to my brother's OnePlus 6T and the F3 is for sure brighter.
Same as OP.
I got my F3 this morning and the brightness is the same as my old MI 9 SE. It should be not
I think it's a software issue.
Paradoxically display seems to be brighter as few hours ago. What are your settings ?
brightness seems fine to me,but unfortunatly it doesnt get as bright as a oneplus 8 indoor on max brighntess, but in the sun(max peak), the display of the poco is a bit brighter, so i am satisfied with the results.
yep my old s8+ has more brightness than this xiaomie noodles phone so sad i am disappoint with my purchase
Seems like a lot of people here like to have their brightness set to retina burn mode.
I haven't used a OLED display phone yet but I'm pretty sure it'll be brighter than an IPS one at 450 nits max, even then I only have the brightness set to about 75%.
No way to measure or really compare it to other recent OLED screens, but it gets bright enough for a sunny day outside here in the Netherlands. More sun to come hopefully... Also it seems to pump up the contrast a bit when in direct sunlight which is helpfull.
So no complaints here for outdoor readability.
Yea it's brightness is less than my oneplus 7t pro but it's Amoled is way better than my old phone when I watch YouTube video.

I don't think so but I feel the brightness is way less than oneplus 7t pro which also Amoled if not mistaken but the youtube video I watch pco f3 wins hands down.
Hi all,
I have just experienced a brightness problem,
It went very low on its own while not being in auto mode,
It even affected the brightness while the phone was off and charging, which scared me a bit lol,
I was about to seriously consider a factory reset and the brightness came back to its original levels,
The "brightness bar" was still at max during the issue,
And i think it is because i've stayed for too long under the hard sun , playing videos for one hour or two and it happened while i was reading an article on Chrome.
Gud day!

I actually bought it from a store and sent it to my friend in INDIA he seems to have a dim display one,the bit on the reddish side. Now,he isn't enjoying his new mobile because of the forum about screens being on a warmer side. Please help me out how to adjust the contrast. If at all I can do something from here to help him out because sending the mobile back here would be pain in the arse.
I dont if it will solve his problem but settiings/general/accessibility/color adjustment there is a dial you can move around to adjust to your liking. As far as being dim, ive heard others say the same thing. I keep on my 35%. Anything above 70% and i need to wear sunglasses lol
He was actually using his mobile at 0% brightness and thats what have him a red tint of he increases his brightness to 40% or 50% He has no issues about this. I showed him the picture comparison of two G3 s. He said that the left one is exactly what it looks like at 10% brightness and right one about 60%-70%. I guess the photo in the forum was fake. He has no issues now.

At 0% brightness, my g3 has reddish whites or a slight purple cast. You cannot notice it at all unless you are under the perfect conditions. Plus you need another device or phone to compare. But my g3 has whiter whites than all the phones I have seen. Even the s5.
Rate this thread to express how well you can see the LG G5'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.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Sunglasses
With no sunglasses in bright daylight I can see the screen without issue. Sometimes I have to remove my sunglasses to see the screen well. No problem with sunglasses in the car so far.
I have great outdoor visibility. In direct sunlight I see the display boost up to compensate for the environment. I was worried about this at first but works great. As far as sunglasses every phone I have ever had always has issues with visibility.

Exactly this.
Could do better in bright situations
Best there is on an extra sunny day. Very impressive in this category.
If your having trouble seeing outdoors make sure you have auto checked and crank the brightness up. For some reason if you don't have auto checked it does not get as bright as it can. Lg might call this a feature I call it a bug
Sent from my LG-H820 using XDA-Developers mobile app
For gods sake, i gave up trying to get this stuff to work correctly, the only thing helped was updating to V10c.
Before it turned on the Outside thingy, and turned it off again within 2 seconds.
I have no problems seeing it on max brightness on a sunny day through my sunglasses. There is another brightness level beyond 100% that kicks in when it's in direct sun, but I believe this is only achievable (for now) by using the "auto" brightness
I barely can see to be honest, no screen can beat the AMOLED on outdoor visibility.
my experience so far:
bought one (gold), in outdoor under direct sunlight, the screen was unreadable, from time to time the "super brightness" kicked in for about 1-2 seconds, than gone off again
tought it was defective, got a new one (silver)
same exact problem
my friend bought one: same exact problem
asked on twitter, found one owner, same exact problem
now... i really, really hope is a software thing, a bug, something like that, because when this super brightness turns on the screen is gorgeous under direct sunlight, but the problems is that it doesn't kick in when it have to, and even shoot photos with a sunny day is simply impossibile
the phone was on v10a when i bought it, i'm on V10c now and the problem is still here....

Mine still does this even with the V10c update =(. Come on LG this has to be some software bug, just fix it already!
Wow! After reading this forum I discovered the super-brightness thing. This is great!
Works fine for me but I can test some more. I just set it to Auto and it kicked under direct light from a torch.
I'm on V10c-EUR-XX
Even at max brightness it can be hard to see in direct sunlight.

You must set the brightness to "Auto" in order for the brightness sunlight boost to kick in. Setting the brightness to maximum will also block the boost.

I have tested several times and I discovered whether the "super brightness mode" can be kicked is not only depends on the brightness of the environment. When the phone is hot, this mode can be kicked for only 1-2 seconds and won't be kicked again until the phone is cooled down. However, the phone gets hot easily under sunlight. That means the "super brightness mode" is useless if LG continues setting a low temperature limit for this mode.
I live on an island and have been going to the beach a lot lately. Can confirm that screen visibility is very good, even with sunglasses on. My wife's G4 is not that bright though but cannot really find any faults with my G5.
Almost useless in sunlight. Other than that its a great display, Super AMOLED is obviously better though.
Hi all,
I have one problem with low bright. I dont know if this is a particular one or happen in all amoled displays.
When I adjust the lowest brightness (in a dark room, for example) I can see a ghosting from dark backgrounds in the display. But, when I adjust a >20% brightness (for example, I dont know if its 20 or 30) it disappear.
I know that the brightness is just an adjustment of the frecuency of the display (more brightness, more frecuency), but this is strange for me. Its my first amoled display, so maybe, can be that and this is a normal behaviour.
I will upload one video tomorrow for you to test this.
EDIT: This is the video. Watch it in low brightness and in a dark room.

Yes, i have the same issue. I did that on the Nexus 6P with the same DarkPro settings (benchmarking with the 6P). And when you lower the it, there is a noticable ghosting on the 5t. It is normal for this Amoled Panel of the OnePlus 5T, on the Nexus 6p this is normal.

it's pretty dim, to be honest, i wish we had screen brightness like some of the older motorola phones did when android motorola was still for the cool kids instead of the soccer moms.
Best device ive used in direct sunlight. I work outdoors in the Texas heat and I have no problems seeing the screen.
10/10 for the display, its gorgeous.
Agreed, the brightness when in direct sunlight has much improved over the S9+. It's very usable on a bright sunny day
The display blows the note 9 outdoor usability - Florida sun.

I have S10+ and can't see anything while in my car or outside. The comments above saying it's so great make me think eventhough we have the same phones, that they are talking about a different phone. I think it's awful and now regretting my decision to get this phone because this drives me completely insane. Rating 2.
No problems her in crazy sunlight. Phone does get warm because of the max brightness and direct sunlight but still very clear to read.
Its excellent

It works really well under sunlight and yeah the phone does heat up a bit but it's ok I can see and read well my screen
On max brightness it's bright. Inside it blinds the crap out of me. Outside I can see it pretty well.
Put it on adaptive brightness. I guess there's a limit to how bright we can manually set it versus how bright it gets automatically.. I played around with these settings myself and it does get brighter when you turn on adaptive brightness. Try it! I'm sure you'll like it better! Because I was thinking three same thing you said, house the hell are these people thinking it's great in the sunlight?! Way better with adaptive enabled!

You are CORRECT. This has been from the very start. Only adaptive brightness will give you the max potential of the brightness of s10+'s screen.
For s10+, high brightness mode is entered when sensor reads 40,000lux, and its exited when sensor reads below 8000lux (it used to be 5000lux but it must have been changed at some point). When sun hits the screen, screen is very visible and good. When you are outside but sun isnt on the screen, you can turn your phone towards sun to activate HBM, but it may exit once you turn it back to yourself.(quite annoying as manual max is very limiting at 300nits).
There is a HDR bug, only works on android 10, you can trick the phone to stay at HDR brightness(brightness is still adjustable all the way from 1.6nits to 700), so you can manually adjust it to max brightness(700nits) whenever you want. This is the reason im staying at android 10 lol. Had to downgrade from android 11. If bootloader version turns to 10(currently 9) you wont be able to downgrade(maybe with root you can, i dont know) so its good to consider doing it
Ive always auto brightness turned on,
after installing the UI3.1 , under a bright light, it doesn't go so bright...but under sun light, or in dqy light, its just brighter and its get sooo much better...,
It's like sensors understand where u r

Hi guys, looks like OnePlus have got some quality control issues. My unit has terrible colour issues with the display. It's very noticeable at low brightness levels and still apparent around the 50% mark. I've reached out to OnePlus about sorting out a replacement unit. Since they don't offer advanced RMA I don't hold out much hope for a quick solution!

You have to go for RMA
this is why I switched my order to Amazon.
should be much simpler then dealing with OP.
hope you get a better unit and this is not wide.
so far other people with pop up orders not had this issue so maybe its not wide issue
Sorry to hear this. Just tested my UK one and no such issues.
Reminds me of the mate 20 pro
A few other people on the Telegram OP8 group have this. Wonder how many are affected?
Can happen with any phone with oleds. Get it replaced
Seems this is similar issue as with s20 ultra panels. They also have quite a few green screens at low backlight. Mine seems more or less uniform but still has strange tint on low brightness. Someone mentioned to try to turn DC dimming in experimental settings to lower the impact of low brightness, but I havent tested that.

I have a similar problem with mine. It looks like clouding with a dark grey background at low brightness. I have also figured that it's far worse with 120 hz vs 60 hz.

OnePlus said I have 30 days from the day I received the device to send it back in, see if it passes their inspection, and then hopefully have a new one sent to me. It takes 12 days to go through the process. What a shame.

I am located in Germany and we can return the whole thing within 2 weeks, no questions asked. I am not dealing with them to inspect the phone etc. I will just send it back. Too bad, as I ordered a blind box in a special promo action and got a lot of accessories in the box. But still not worth it.
Interestingly the "burn ins" or what ever it is look very similar. It's the worst on the buttom/side of the phone and around thr front camera, in all the pictures I have seen. Also it's worse at 120 hz compared to 60 hz for me. Why are those problems at similar spots though? ?
This isn't good. Wonder if the 1300nits/high refresh rate is damaging screens.
Has anyone got their device and using it at 120hz fairly bright with no issues. I was tempted to order one tomorrow but this is putting me off a little.
