High Ambient Light Shoot-Outs and Automatic Brightness
Mobile Brightness Shoot-Out 4 Tablets and 5 Smartphones Viewed in 0 to 40,000 lux Ambient Lighting
Tablet Brightness Shoot-Out 4 Tablets Tested in 0 to 40,000 lux Ambient Lighting
Smartphone Brightness Shoot-Out 4 Smartphones Tested in 0 to 40,000 lux Ambient Lighting
Tablets and Smartphones are all used under a very wide range of
ambient lighting conditions that are frequently much brighter than for other
displays - like laptops, desktops, and HDTVs.
The screens reflect a considerable amount of the surrounding light,
which washes out the images you are trying to see.
These articles explain the issues and have a large number of high ambient light
screen shots to demonstrate the differences.
Auto Brightness Shoot-Out BrightnessGate for the iPhone & Android Smartphones and HDTVs
The Automatic Brightness controls and Light Sensors
have a major impact on battery run time for Smartphones and US power consumption
for HDTVs, in addition to image and picture quality, screen readability,
viewing comfort, and preventing eye strain.
We demonstrate with extensive data that existing Controls and Light Sensors
are effectively useless due to bad design and engineering.
