Contrast Issues with SP3

Yes, the original contrast is not very good. Have you tried streaming videos with dark scenes, are they not very dark anymore?

If the change is only causing 20-30 mins battery loss, I wouldn't fret. What was your original battery life?

Oh and sorry, I forgot. I think you lose that feature once you select the tweak

Dark scenes on Netflix are much better and PhotoShop Lightroom amazing with the tweak.

Battery average seems to have decreased from around 8:45hrs to 8:20 but will monitor.

It may be that auto brightness was decreasing the brightness levels even more than I am now using manually (45%) and thus less voltage drain overall.

Edit: after disabling the auto contrast feature and rebooting it did not work first time, someone else said enable it and reboot again then disable and only then did I notice it was fully off.

Huh, just checked mine after working hard to get the contrast fixed, and now mine's off again. Not sure what changed (unless an update reset something). And now, can't get the Surface Tweak Tool to run--just starts and then immediately exits.

Grrr, I have to say.
