i think it has something to do with a light sensor somewhere as mine works a bit weird. have to set brighter on a dull day but on a bright day top down its proper bright. doesnt retain my last setting either.

I think I have the same problem. Did you fix it?

Mine is the same. It defaults to 50% brightness so I turn it up to 100% and the day after, it’s back to 50% bright but it retains the other settings changes I made such as colour tone?
