Cruising on the brightness – good, Automatic brightness adjustment works, in our opinion, the bad is the screen too much “dark”, under artificial light in adjusting periodically blows the roof – in general, it is better not to use it. Currently there is mention of the fact that, say, the black color in this display in some areas slightly yellow.

The colors of the display are very good: soft, natural. In direct sunlight the display is very good: the image is quite discernible. In addition, here is a special mode settings improve readability in bright sunlight – it adds luminescence intensity.

Yes, OnePlus One is promising to be flagship with its performance, let’s wait if OnePlus is developing another beast for 2015 to compete with upcoming Sony Z5, LG G5 and Galaxy Note 5.
