[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] tcoursey:
Not familiar with a high brightness "widget". I do have the brightness slider as high as it goes...no auto brightness adjustments or ambient etc.

Do you have a screen protector/glass overlay on yours...I don't think so :) Maybe that's my issue. It sure doesn't look any different but maybe it's doing something there. either way it's not INCREDIBLY AMAZING as these reviews I've read show, in outdoor light. Many others had my same opinion as I read through....many others did not. It's either a difference in hardware or expectations...I figure it's the latter.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] e753:
Wait.

I suggest you to use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flar2.hbmwidget&hl=it cuz u r allowed to "use a hidden hardware setting to unleash the full potential of your AMOLED screen (ie, +20% birghtness).".

If you don't do it I guess you should not write "It's not bright enough at all for me" imho.

cheers
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] tcoursey:
Thanks for the link I will check it out...that may help.

But without getting into an argument....If one needs a 3rd party app that somehow unlocks capabilities of a phone that are more than likely not good for it in the long run to be usable in daylight then I'm certainly within reason able to say it's not adequate for "me" "out of the box" how Huawei and Google wanted me to use it.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] feis:
People been using these things for ages and nothing bad ever happens. Manufacturer limit brightness probably to save battery life
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] tcoursey:
Yea for sure...and it's not a problem really. I run custom roms, root etc..etc.. But to me this poll was for out of the box brightness.

Would be like a review on a car saying this thing is so fast and crazy...and others saying no way, whats wrong with mine I guess? And the first person says oh you didn't upgrade to super muffler and turbo charger and add new transmission? :)
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] feis:
Well i dont have any outdoor visibility problems, and go to gsmarena.com check reviews. They dont just say brightness is good or bad, they provide lab results with actual numbers, and according to them 6p is up there with the best when it comes to outdoor visibility.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] poolparty:
It's good enough at max brightness, not much glare so that helps.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] choder:
This works very well. I can see my screen in full sun without a problem. I am using a custom kernel with High Brightness Mode Widget.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Matrix_19:
with Android N, adaptive brightness off, the max brightness is now the high brightness mode !! so we don't need root+custom kernel for this feature
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] neo905:
Interesting. I thought my eyes were deceiving when I noticed the screen looked brighter outdoors. Even with Adaptive Brightness on.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Cloudane:
Wondered if that was the case, or whether I'd just become used to it. It seems fine outdoors now (well, as fine as most smartphones get in daylight, they're never perfect)
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
How well do you know your fifty shades of grey? Rate this thread to express how good the Huawei Nexus 6P's display contrast is. A higher rating indicates that black is true black, rather than a very dark gray.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] svetius:
Great contrast thanks to AMOLED
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] jairusz:
It gets backly black as if the screen was off exactly like other OLED displays I've used(S4, Note 4, S6)
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] poolparty:
AMOLED

/thread :)
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Jockson:
Actually, in real world usage blacks are pretty poor/washed out, unless you're in a dark room. When the screen is off you can see the surface of the screen is much lighter than, say, Samsung AMOLED phones. It's more like greenish dark grey rather than black so even if the actual pixels are turned off, it doesn't look black. It's even worse than many LCDs. I have no idea how come no one has mentioned this in any reviews, or at least I've never seen it.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Eric214:
ROFL are you hallucinating? My 6P's blacks are pitch black. The way I can tell... The edge of the screen, when black, is equal to the blacks on the top and bottom of the screen.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Jockson:
Except that is not true. Take a look at the screen when it is turned off. The surrounding bezel is truly black but the screen itself is greenish gray, meaning blacks are not getting darker than that. Then look at a Samsung AMOLED phone and you'll see it's the other way around, it's the screen itself that is as black as it gets. Samsung obviously uses different filters/polarizers which result in much better blacks in anything other than total darkness. I just compared my 6P to an old Galaxy S2 and again, the S2 has much deeper blacks thanks to the actual surface being much darker. You only really get true pitch black when you're using the 6P in a dark room. Otherwise blacks are pretty much on par with your average LCD, which is a poor result for an AMOLED screen.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Eric214:
Well, it's true on mine. Maybe your panel is different then mine. I just compared my 6P to my Note 4 and they look the same. Which makes sense since Huawei buys there panels from Samsung so they are the same panels. Only difference is Samsung panels get a few nits brighter.

Guess we can agree to disagree. Especially since you can get different quality panels from phone to phone. Just like that can happen on Samsung phones.

Oh and I forgot, there are no filters to make blacks, black as you don't filter light on Amoled screens. The pixel just doesn't receive power so the pixel is off, not filtered. What you are referring to is an LCD panel, not Amoled
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Jockson:
It has nothing to do with pixels being off. Look here https://technology.ihs.com/509943/w...izer-technology-trend-of-amoled-use-polarizer

Remember the first Nexus, the Nexus One? It also had an amoled screen, with terrible blacks. How was that possible? Because the actual surface of the screen was so reflective, if there was even a little bit of ambient light reaching the screen it would completely wash it out. Whether the actual pixels emitted any light was irrelevant in any other conditions other than complete darkness.

There are no different panels being used on the 6P. Just take the phone out of a dark room and you'll see the screen is clearly not as black as the bezels when it's turned off. I have so far compared it to the following phones: Note 5, S6 edge, S4, S4 mini, S2. All of them have deeper blacks than the 6P due to their surface being darker. It may be a Samsung panel but it's not the same one as used by Samsung on their devices. Even Anandtech have mentioned it uses different lamination which actually provides slightly better viewing angles. What's strange is that the more off angle you go, the lighter the surface appears. Can be seen in this video comparing the 6P to the 5X http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXtDCBSKQV8&t=3m44s Obviously it's not as bad when looking head on but it's still pretty poor for an amoled screen.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Eric214:
Hmmm sorry man mine is just black. Agree to disagree. Can't say any better then that. I'm moving on. If your not happy with the phone for that reason, sell it and get a Samsung. ;)
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Jockson:
Well, it was nice discussing with you but one may as well say "mine is pink, agree to disagree". It doesn't really mean anything as far as facts go.

I just took out my old Nexus 5 and surprise surprise, it absolutely kills the 6P when it comes to black depth in well lit conditions. The surface of the screen simply reflects way too much light.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] mihovil13:
Hahaha so many people here producing disinformations...

AMOLED, especiall Super, has 0.098% of light coming thru when fully black but on. That's the blackest as it gets.

6P, Note's, S6, S7. have the BEST SCREENS around. And by far.

Turn on sRGB mode in developer options if u want, a bit washed, but 100% accurate colors. What u see is what u get on print. But why would u use that, unless you're a professional photographer like me.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Jockson:
Coming through what? Screen surface reflectiveness is what matters the most when it comes to black depth outdoors. LCDs have extremely high MEASURED black levels in comparison to AMOLED but you can't see that outside because of ambient light. Case in point, the 6P looks worse than most good LCDs outside. It's like when people claim plasma TVs have amazing blacks but forget to mention that is only true in low light conditions.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] IM0001:
Jockson I understand and agree with you. The screen on the 6P has a lighter surface color than the black bezels above and below which is noticeable. It isn't a major detractor from the visual quality screen on, but I agree that in a bright setting, blacks don't get to be as black as could be. It isn't bad by any means, but unless you get a completely black unreflective layer it may not be easy to improve (or Samsung is hogging it all to themselves).

Either way, you're right though the quality of the screen is still really good on the 6P so, yea. Still like my 6P, even after using a HTC 10 with it for the past 6 months. Both great, but the 6P has me returning to it more, for now.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Jockson:
Finally someone understands what I'm talking about. I don't want to "sell this phone and buy a Samsung then". I already had the Note 5 and got rid of it for the 6P. Love this phone, love the screen as well in low light conditions. But this really caught me by surprise. I've switched to a full black theme and outside, it really shows how washed out it really is. On a cloudy day outside, blacks on the Note 5 look almost perfectly black and yet the 6P next to it looks horribly washed out and more like greenish grey. I knew it wouldn't compete with the Note 5 in direct sunlight but it's pretty disappointing that it loses out considerably in medium light conditions as well. And not only to the Note 5 but to the ancient S2 as well. The display surface just doesn't look like any Samsung amoled phone ever which is pretty strange.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Calico007:
I agree with this completely. It's pretty hard not to notice that there is a definite green/brown tint to the display in contrast to the surrounding black bezel when in good ambient light. I came from a Nexus 4 and I was immediately disappointed by this aspect of the 6P display. Since then I have reconciled this disappointment with the fact that the 6P is overall a fantastic phone with substantially better value than other premium phones.

I'm not 100% sure that it's much better on Samsung devices because Samsung goes out of its way to mask this issue by making the top and bottom bezels of their phones different (non-black) colors. I'll even go so far as to suggest that the curved display on the Edge was a gimmicky attempt to obscure this issue. This, among others, is an AMOLED problem and why Apple hasn't used them. Still love the 6P, especially now on Nougat.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Jockson:
You are absolutely right regarding Samsung making their bezels non black. Even on their black phones bezels are often very, very dark grey. But still, their screens do have far less reflective surface. I wasn't really sure myself was it such a big difference until I compared it side by side with the Note 5, S6 edge and S2. The 6P just looks green and very washed out in comparison.

People often forget it's the perception of contrast that matters, not the absolute measured black level. LCD often gets criticized for poor contrast but visually it has deeper blacks than plasma and CRT do, except in low ambient light. Same story with the 6P. Great blacks when there isn't much light around, otherwise pretty poor and washed out.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Eric214:
Well yes if the screen is off and you're in sunlight, you can see the difference from the bezel. That's normal for every phone. I rarely use my phone in direct sunlight. I'm talking about normal use and when the screen is on, I can not tell the difference if say the status bar is black and the edge/top/bottom of the bezel. So if you're just talking about screen off and in bright light/sunlight.... that's every phone basically. But I don't stare at my phone and worry about how dark the screen is when it's off.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] masudrana4:
That's true. I usually root to get the tinted navigation bar but this time i didn't root to get that because the blacks are usually same as the bezel of the phone which looks damn good.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Jockson:
How dark the screen is when it is turned off IS what the blacks actually look like. It can't look any darker than that, the screen doesn't emit the "black" color :) When there is bright content on the screen it just tricks your eyes/brain into thinking black areas are darker than they really are but in reality, contrast is still pretty poor.

I'm not talking about direct sunlight either. Even in medium ambient light blacks wash out considerably. Certainly MUCH more than they do on Samsung AMOLED phones and most LCDs so no, not every phone is the same. The 6P display just isn't very good in this regard.

[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] daneshpastry:
The contrast is so high (when not in rgb mode) that it's almost unbearable to look at (for fussy people like me).

Unfortunately the rgb mode seems to dull things a bit too much...would be nice to have something in between.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] bbran33:
Similar to the Nexus 6 I felt the display was too warm so I was very happy to install a kernel to make adjustments.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] moopsterboo:
With the display set to sRGB mode (developer settings), images compare very closely to my calibrated laptop.

sRGB looks very accurate.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] -X5-:
White is a bit warm/yellowish in comparison to another 6P.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Gizmoe:
I did a re install of the factory image and sRGB got checked during setting things back up on accident and I thought the factory image messed it up lol. Then I read this and turned it off. Much better.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] ChronoReverse:
By default it's too saturated, like the older Samsung AMOLEDs. sRGB is a bit too bland and blue but better.

Once I rooted and installed a custom kernel, I specifically reduced only saturation and now the panel is great.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] badhri:
I have a Nexus 4 as well.

In Nexus 4, the white is really white. But in Nexus 6P, the white is yellowish/pinkish(and it is really bothering me). Is it just my display or is it the case with everyone?

P.S. The black is really black though and the other colours seem to be fine.

I recently bought Nexus 6P. The color saturation was perfect initially. After I tried the color inversion once, the saturation has got high. I tried fixing it through SRGB but the saturation gets too low. Not able to find a middle ground. Please help. Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] rowihel2012:
the only downside

display is old amoled

bad screen

i had zte z11 max

it has better screen
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] dannejanne:
Yeah the Amoled panel in this phone is not good at all. However it gets tolerable with a custom kernel and color adjustments. This isn't a color accurate screen in any way. My Honor 8 and XA Ultra has way better screens even though they are LCD.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] oussamalabbize:
With a custom kernel like ElementalX, and with the good adjustments you got one of the best screens.

They do not care if the file has no copyright of theirs they just do it to everyone on that tracker.
