“We have noticed feedback from the user regarding the adaptive brightness feature, it will be optimized in the next OTA update. “
The bug mainly surfaces when the phone goes to 100 percent brightness through the built-in adaptive brightness mode, one of the affected users found that clearing cache helps temporarily and some found the third-party Lux works fine.
Many users also complained about battery drain issues after updating to OxygenOS 5.1.8 so company bought OxygenOS 5.1.9 with a Sleep Standby Optimization Feature to enhance the battery life but didn’t fix the display issue.
