auto brightness

Self-adjusting screen light

Auto brightness is a display setting that automatically adjusts screen brightness based on ambient light conditions.

When enabled, sensors detect surrounding light levels and raise or lower brightness accordingly—dimming in dark rooms, brightening in sunlight.

Most smartphones and laptops include the feature: I turned off auto brightness because it kept dimming during movies.
