Do the videos on your Samsung Galaxy look dull even though you have turned the screen brightness all the way up? Don’t worry, it’s not a screen problem. By default, the amazing AMOLED screens of these mobiles are calibrated to give you a beautiful and pleasant image quality in the main interface and in the applications, but not in the videos. We are not saying that the screen of Samsung mobiles and tablets look bad in videos, but it is true that they lack some brightness.
Samsung knows how they have calibrated the screen of their mobiles and that is why they have added to their One UI 4 operating system an option to increase the brightness of the videos above the maximum limit without affecting the quality . Where is that option found? How active? We explain it to you below.
How to increase the brightness of videos on a Samsung Galaxy to the maximum
According to Samsung’s official description, the maximum video brightness option on the Galaxy phones temporarily increases screen brightness and makes colors more vibrant when watching videos . What Samsung doesn’t mention is that this feature is only available for flagship devices. That is, for those of the Galaxy S, Galaxy Note, Galaxy Flip and Galaxy Fold series. It is also available on Samsung tablets.
Of course, it is necessary to have One UI 4 (you can see the version of the system you use from the device settings). However, a similar feature can be found in earlier versions of One UI . Be that as it may, here are the steps to follow to increase the maximum brightness of your Samsung in the videos:
- Open the Settings app.
- Go into Advanced Features .
- Tap on Video Optimizer or Video Brightness .
- Select Luminous .
It is done! Further down you can choose whether you want to apply this setting to specific video apps or to all apps. We leave that to your choice.
In short, after activating this option, the videos you play on your Samsung Galaxy will look sharper and brighter . Do you want to discover other tricks to get the most out of your Samsung mobile? Then check out this article of 5 tricks to take better photos with your Samsung Galaxy.
