Did you make sure to turn off "Auto adjust screen power"?

I was a bit quick to judge. Now I did set both devices equally did a synchronised screen test, and I covered part of the Note to equalise surfaces.
They look equally bright only the white is notably different to me, a bit pink on the Note and a bit blue on S2. The 'blue white' looks a bit brighter on the S2.
display mode
you do know there is an option to chosse display mode in the screen settings. it allows you to choose movie, regular, or vibrant. these settings could affect the white looking pink. try different modes and see if the white is changed any.

I have no issues with my Note display colours, for me it's great. On request I compared to my S2. Display mode settings on both phones where set to standard to compare
It's a Super AMOLED screen, mine is set to max brightness at all times. Will this cause issues?
Will I get screen burn in? Not looking to do any damage to my screen whatsoever.
Thanks in advance!

Change auto change screen in the Display options in "Settings" and also turn off adaptive brightness. Also, manually adjust brightness from swiping from top down and getting the tool bar as it were
Has anyone noticed this ? After the APD1 update, the notification LED is quite a bit dimmer. I tried upping the screen brightness, thinking that it may obey the screen brightness settings. No luck. This really pisses me off, since I rely on that LED, given that the AOD feature does not display most notifications.
dude did the auto-restart issue solved under the new firmware ?
Same for me, notification light definitely dimmer, a shame there seems to be no apparent settings to adjust this.
I didn't notice that. What kind of led color is dimmer?

My LED doesn't appear to be dimmer after the APD1 update, though I've really only seen blue so far.
What colors are appearing more dim on your device?

Good question and idea. It's the green color. I will switch to other colors if those are not dim, maybe red.

The green LED just got activated on my phone. I think it's just as bright as it was before the APD1 update.

Just did a test again: the LED now obeys the ambient light sensor, in bright light it is bright, and in low light it becomes dimmer (you can try by covering the sensor). Same with the AOD, as someone reported in another thread.

Very interesting [emoji53]

Under sun light the led is barely visible. Violet color in this case.

I have the "dimmed green led" issue too. APD1 here. Interestingly the first couple of activities after a full reboot for the green color are bright, then it dims... I thought of a faulty led at first but now I know I'm not alone.

I confirm that with a medium light the led is almost visible [emoji19]

Ok. I can confirm that the led now uses the ambient light sensor to adjust brightness. Weird but true

I don't see this adjustment. In a bright environment it is almost visible. At least on my phone. How do you say that it use the ambient light sensor?

Adjustment is not based upon screen brightness, which could lead to errors as screen brightness is only refreshed with phone unlocked. If you receive a notification and there's light falling directly on the ambient sensor while screen is off you'll see a bright led. If you cover the sensor (with screen off) you'll see a dimmed led. It is worthy to note that this adjustment is made only at notification arrival and not after. So if you have the phone inside a pocket you'll always see a dimmed led even if you take out the phone in the sunshine. If you have the phone out in the sunshine when notification arrives then you'll see a bright led.
I have thoroughly tested this and it's how the system now works (at least on my phone).

I get it, interesting but I don't understand why it works only at notification arrival. Anyway if your phone does that so the other phone must do that too. P. S. What is exactly the ambient sensor?

They also ****ed up the battery life on this update.

Confirmed its controlled via Light, so rules apply the same as OLED / Always on Display
As for the battery life, to when did you update?
People have complained about battery life, But i am yet to experience this issue everyone else is.
With that in mind, Linux is a rather complex system, and has some cleaver memory management utility's
(it does not operate like windows, Close down your apps to free up RAM, Linux does this on its own)
So keep that in mind, Then you performed a update, This no doubt a few settings to the kernel have been changed, Or even a update / patch.
So any information its retained about applications, Ram and process memory will / SHOULD be ereased and re-done
and the behaviour of the kernel is different.
As a result of this, you will notice a increase in battery drain for the first few days.
You can apply this same logic and method to Flashing Custom ROMS.
You have a Version of a customer ROM (For this example V1.0)
The developer releases V1.1 With some very minor adjustments
To ensure the running of the ROM, you wipe the device and start from Fresh.
WOW after installing this ROM am getting MASSIVE battery drain
(But give it 2 days or so and you will notice it will settle)
(After the Kernel has collected enough information about running process, whats needed whats not, what you keep opening and closes, What is needed to suspend and keep active)
The list goes on.

Ambient light sensor. The one which drives automatic screen brightness

Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge is less brightness than S6 edge??? in the middle position I see the difference....it's normal or is an issue???
** no power save mode activated
thanks
Different phones have different mappings between the brightness slider and actual brightness, mapping is not linear. Compare the "high" positions with the "auto" unchecked.
compared others S7 with mine and are equal..... the S6 lines are more brightness....the white is more white......

Well...good news for you, your phone "are" equal to the S7 in at least one thing
PS: about the "white that is more white", there is a "Screen Mode" setting inside the "Display and Brightness" settings, which can turn the white...very white

I guess replace it then.
Update
I tried replacing it but the flipkart technician refused it saying that he has seen around 30 phones and that all displays are like that ad he gives examples about redmi note 5 pro saying that the ones manufactured in andhra give white display while the ones manufactured in some other location doesn't .Anyone knows execs who can intiate a replacement?

look for an option live display..turn it off.
Zenfone max pro m1 has a yellow tint on the screen try setting screen colour to cool
I am facing the same issue in my Max Pro M1 6 GB that I received on 11 sep. I have blue color variant. I think it's related to the color of the variant u order.
Everyone is facing that. Probably display is not calibrated.
You can use Kernel Adiutor or any kernel mangager app to calibrate the screen (root required).
Worked for me
Trun off color correction under settings -> accessibility -> display.

Go to Settings, then go to Display, then tap on Advanced, then tap on Screen Color (This option is only available when Night Mode is turned off).
Now there you can adjust screen color. Uncheck the Default option, and adjust the Screen Color according to you. Drag the slider to Left to bring more Orangish Tint to screen. Drag the slider to Right to bring more Bluish Tint. (Drag the slider to Right to remove Yellowish Tint from screen)
anybody who's rooted device & on lineage os, open live display & increase night slide to 6500...?
I think yellowish screen helps a bit in reducing eye strain by reducing the blue light emission. Anyways, if this bothers you, install a custom kernel and change screen color temperature using kernel adiutor ezpz
