Hardware Your preferred brightness settings?

[Arnold Schwarzen]

Usual settings are brightness at 4, power saving off, and wireless switch always on. When I get really desperate if the battery is low and I really want to play I will turn off wireless and put everything at lowest. Most often the case is I don't have to and have access to the charging cradle.

Guys , doyou think that with lower brightness you will see lower 3D effect??
I ask this because i was playing doa: dimensions and I see very well 3d effect with brightness:5, but not with brightness:3
Thx

I use all of them; list

in bed: 1, saving on
Morning 2, on
Midday 3/4/5 off
night 1 off
While charging: 5, off

Concludes that I use lighter brightnesses in the lighter periods of the day.

Ps I have Wi-Fi always on.

My 3DS is also turned on 24/7

Betwenn 2/3 its perfectly fine for me.
Indoors I could even play at the lowest.

 

[Paarish]

I use 2 or 3 but when I charge i put it on 5

 

[purplesludge]

I use the lowest unless I'm charging it then I use the highest.

Lowest ever, tried level 2 but I don't feel comfortable, even though I can see nicely at max or any level 2, level 1 is an ideal choice, because it's just so relaxing.

I keep it on 4 when I'm outside but when I'm playing indoors, it's usually on 2. I rarely ever use power-saving mode and I keep the WiFi on.

actually, 4 or 5... I don't know why, but I really like the brightness... and I never play for that long without being able to charge, so battery time doesn't bother me ^^

Same here (almost): 5 with power-saving on.

 

[Hydreigon]

I usually keep my setting at 3 or 4 (no power-saving) and leave the wifi on.

4, powersaving off... how can people play with screen so dim?

You get used to it. I used to play with my DSiXL on 5 all of the time, and then I started using 2. It's now my favorite setting.

How much is the battery life on average for brightness 4 with no power saving?

On average about 3h 20 min to 4h.

Powersave on, brightness one. Saves soo much battery I charge it like every 3 days if its in sleep mode all day.

Brightness 2, powersving on, and wifi on. It usually gets a about 5-6 hrs, so I'm good with that.
