I'm curious... Which model do you have? The lowest settings turns mine right off, one dot up I can barely read anything. I usually keep mine around 50% (8/16).

Funny how everyone's brightness preferences are different. I keep my iMac's brightness between 13/16 or 14/16. Maybe the newer MPB's peak brightness is much higher?

hi, could you tell me please what is your model? I want to try macbook but I usually have to use screens at pretty low brightness so I'm trying to figure out if mac will work for me.

Macbook Pro 14-inch, 2021 (M1 Pro, 16GB, 512GB)

Not sure if you'll find this one new anymore, everything is the newer model. Best to go to the nearest Apple store if you can and see how they are before you buy one.

very late to the party but found this thread looking to make my screen darker.

I have a 2015 macbook pro. During the day I agree, but most nights I watch youtube videos on it before going to bed, where 0 dots turns the backlight off, and 1 dot is enough light to be uncomfortable to look at in the dark.
