Ok, so when it's really bright outside my lcd is not bright enough to see and when I'm in my bedroom with the light on, the lcd is way to dark to see as well. The Auto brightness isn't really working I don't.... I want it to go to full dark when there's very very low light and full bright when there's a lot of light. That doesn't sound to difficult, right?
THANKS
The over-saturated colors are worst when shooting skin tones. For white skin, it makes it look too red, saturated and contrasty. I've emailed support to request some more options for color (and focus). You can switch it to portrait mode which helps, but then you lose the rapid-fire option.
A tip to help the camera color reproduction a bit is to go to the camera settings>image adjustments and turn contrast and saturation one notch down. Then colors seem more natural/neutral. The only issue is that one notch each is a bit too far. I'd like to see more steps in those controls, since the perfect setting would be somewhere in between.
I prefer a bit less contrast and saturation than more, so I'm leaving the settings lower, and will punch them up manually on the rare occasions where I want to push them.
The screen seems to be oversaturated, if you look at your pictures on another screen they look more normal.

You're absolutely right. I always thought this was the camera's fault, but I just compared the photos that look much more red than reality, and you were right - the colors are normal on my computer. It's disappointing to see such a beautiful screen do such a disservice to the device, but at least the problem is only on the screen and not in the photos.
Saturation has too much Red

I still think that the cam on the HTC Evo 4G LTE is much too reddish IMO, even when viewed on different monitors. And I agree, that the adjustments on the image settings, especially Saturation and Exposure seriously need finer increments. 1 notch in either direction is too much. I also agree the screen is beautiful, except it's also too saturated. Faces are too red. Maybe there's a hack to fix these issues, or will be hopefully, or idealy, HTC will take note and make these adjustments in an update.
Mine too. Is there any way to incorporate let's say droid x2 camera software into the evo's? I really liked the editing/zoom feature the dx2 had. The evo's editing/zoom features are pitiful
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Although I do agree the adjustments should be more incremental I also believe the camera software on the evo is the best of any smartphone ..
Had my s6e a week now and right from the start I've noticed an issue with the screen colours on full brightness.
When in bright light something happens that makes all the colours look washed out and slightly pink. I've never noticed this on my previous galaxy devices and it's really dissapointing
It seems to be related to the auto brightness glitch as it does this whether auto brightness is switched on or not. When in bright sunlight it switches into a mode where all the colours look faded and horrible. When I cover the front camera area or turn the brightness down it switches back to normal.
I've tried changing from adaptive to cinema mode etc and it seems to make no difference.
Has anyone else noticed the change in colours or have I just got a dud?
Sounds like the extreme brightness mode Samsung implemented on the Note 4. If so, that's how it's supposed to look in direct sunlight to make it easier to see.

Could be, looks awful tho :/
It does. I think the idea was to optimize contrast to make the screen visible at the expense of accuracy and saturation.
I'm having the same problem with my S7 Edge. Had it a week and then the colors just started to wash out on everything. All themes, all screens. Nothing fixes it. I hold it next to my S6 Edge with the same theme and the difference in colors is drastic. It looks terrible.
If you're colorblind, please disregard this thread. Rate this thread to express how you deem the color saturation and accuracy of the LG G6's display. A higher rating indicates that you think that color accuracy is very high and saturation is excellent.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
The LCD is fairly color accurate all considering. This screen is very close to what I achieve using a hardware color calibrate with my work machines. The reds are not too red (faux saturation) and the cooler tones show up as prominently.
It's just a shame I can't hook up a hardware calibrator to it to test it.
Solid color accuracy
I am coming from a OnePlus 3T, so when first firing up the G6 I was a little disappointed. I couldn't believe how much more vivid the AMOLED screen was compared to the LCD. Well, now that I have been using the G6 exclusively for the past two days, I am growing quite fond of this screen. The colors are quite accurate and precise, just not as vivid/saturated as what I was looking at for the past 6 months. Liking this phone more and more each day.
The screen color temperature is definitely on the cool side, certainly higher than 6500K.
It is not pleasant at first for me. I've been using Nexus 6P on sRGB mode for more than a year, and the color saturation on the G6 under default, out of the box settings is disheartening.
To somehow mitigate this, what I did was to enable ComfortView, set at Low Setting. It's far from perfect, but that's better than nothing.
How is this compared to the S8/+ ?

From what I saw side by side compared to the S8+ at full brightness, I could see the whites having a more pinkish hue very slightly than the S8+. The S8+ having brighter highlights. Obviously, the S8+ also has deeper blacks, more saturated, and viewing angles are much better because of its AMOLED display. Other than that, the overall range of colours seemed fairly close between the G6 and S8+.
Not sure who will see this but I think the G6 LCD screen compared to an amoled like the one's on the oneplus 3/3t/5 and the s8/s8+ is just better in certain scenarios. There are some people who might be audiophile esque and want high fidelity and things like that. And there might be some people who like bass boosted beat headphones and other things like that which are not accurate at all but are enjoyable on a certain level. If you like big bass sound and you are that kind of person then you will like the amoled screen but I am personally not. I like knowing that what I see on my screen is what it is supposed to look like.
For instance the other day I was looking at a picture of the fifty shades of gray poster. It is supposed to be black and gray but it had a colored tint to it on the s8 compared to a g6 which looked as it should. All I am saying is that there are going to be times when the s8 because it pops colors so much will make what you see innacurate. And that might bother you or it might not. But it bothers me.
Exactly what Scape said. Tech people who know their stuff want accurate color reproduction and analytic sound. The wide mass wants flashy Colors and boomsound. Easy people rate phones by how saturated the phone looks. The more saturation = the better. This is complete BS for people who have knowledge about Electronics. Its like comparing people who buy a Classic car and put Chrome rims on it not caring for the paint because "CROME RIMZ M8". Where there are also people which buy a classic car, care to make it look as original as possible and know every part of their car.
The 2nd. Car may look boring to people, but its quality and worthwise extremely preferable. For example a natural Color reproduction can help when taking photos with the G6. If you take a photo on the Amoled Screen of a Galaxy, and then open it on your calibrated IPS, you will be flashed about how different it looks then on the phone. Thats not what you want.
Regarding the Bass... Well i like perfect color recreation but i hate neutral speakers or headphones, im quite a basshead but i still want a good clarity, deep stage and low noise.
Guys did anyone you tried screen color adjustment under settings-accessibility ?

Yeah, i kept my custom color setting enabled for a few weeks since the blue color looked way better. It is only when switching back to the default setting that i noticed how washed out the reds looked. I reverted back to the defaults.

True
I bought G6 after iP6S+ and I'm really disappointed from display over all. Blue is on G6 boosted as hell. At home I have calibrated displays and iPhone is much more closer. I can't watch photos (photographer) on G6 because of it. Even automatic brightness control is not ok for me. It's still dimmer than I want. LuxLite solved that but colors are terrible.
Why my phone is reporting me that I have screen resolution of 1440x2703 and PPI 544? https://imgur.com/a/lNXhw

This is bad news for me, I find the G6 screen beautiful (I am under 7.0) and I do not like at all the rendering amoled screens, precisely because of the saturated colors..
I found on 7.0 that the flesh tones on netflix and terrarium tv were way washed out.looked like everyone never saw the sun lol Na just saying I think LG just corrected the saturation a little bit to not make things so washed out looking.The reds are a little darker also instead of a orangey yellow tint.And like before the greens were not as dark .kinda reminded me of a mint or pastel green.Now on Oreo it is a true green and red.
Is there any app or any online guides to correct the LG G6 color accuracy and get true neutral white balance?
I have s8 and G6. I hate Amoled with that compotish colors. White is not white. Ever with pink or blue or yellow. Amoled is like woman with silicon tits. Far from reality. For me LG and Sony make most better displays.
Does anyone use this? I did for a while. I found it very good at adjusting the blues making them a bit darker FB looks much better IMO after I adjusted it
Auto brightness in stock miui is too bad in low light conditions. Will installing custom kernel help to solve this issue or not?
If so, can you suggest me the suitable kernel?
Define too bad... Too bright or too dimmed?

dimmed. because of that you need to adjust the default degree of auto brightness in low light conditions manually.
Dimmed comparingly to what? To your ex phone? When I bought Pocophone it is considerably more dimmed than my ex p8 lite but in fact I think this is much more healthfull for the eye and I am pretty sure it is designed that way o purpose, so this doesn't make it bad... Probably our/yours perceptions are bad. Be generous to your eyes.
