Yes, you're absolutely correct. The brightness effect has been reduced. It's not a bug. It's then new feature to optimize the battery draining and balancing the light effects on the device display.
according to google its self...they reduced the brightness to save battery but u have to crank up the slider to make it brighter which effect the battery go figure..for me what it was bright on 50 percent now is so dim i have to push it to 80 something.

You wouldn't like it if your phone battery is flat after a good night of sleep. Android, on the other hand, has poor standby time. It's doze feature is practically a joke.

Sure, iPhones have great standby time, but nobody's got their phone laying on standby all day. Screen-on-time is pretty much mediocre to average, which is worse considering they have lower pixel density compared to Android phones.
Majority of phones that are running Android Nougat and newer are already about as efficient if not just as power efficient as iOS when it comes to standby times. Plus, many of these phones even have better power saving options, with the most extreme that can stretch your battery for days under ultra battery saving mode, good luck doing that with an iPhone.

So far so good. Pixel 2 has become smoother and standby battery darn close to iPhone SE that I have. Both charged to 100% before I slept and in the morning, Pixel 2 is at 95% while iPhone SE 97%. Will explore more now but all apps and performance so far so good. Loving my surprised Pie 😀

Adaptive brightness is something new in 2018, really? Bottom line, will all these make battery lasting longer than the previous versions? Is known to the world that Android is not as power efficient as iOS. And no, I'm not referring to bad batteries throttling.

Anonymous, 06 Aug 2018so what's new? i'm very dissapointed of latest android devices and operating system versions,... moreAdaptive battery, adaptive brightness, slices, apps action, overview, notifications, digital well being, and other features that are not mentioned. Couldnt possibly write the whole thing in detail here. Go ahead migrate to Apple with even less feature than android and less software innovation. Apple is well known for being minimalist and simple.
Looks rather promising. Makes the smartphone that much more integral to one's everyday life.
