Pale colours screen on S10e since /e/ 2.7

Since I’ve updated it to /e/ 2.7 the screen of my S10e displays frequently pale colours instead of the usual bright ones.

I mean the whole screen is impacted. I can’t figure out whether this a problem with my very own device or if this is linked to the OS.

Is anyone here also facing this problem?

Isn’t it better using e-2.8 ?

Is there any restriction specific on this device that make impossible to downdate to previous e-2.5 or older ?

No it’s not. Same behaviour with 2.8/unfortunately.

It seems it may be linked to LiveDisplay feature but I haven’t find a way to fix this problem which is not very important but really boring. Colours are bright, I switch off the screen, turn it on, colours are pale. I wait few hours, switch on the screen, colours are bright.

I performed two screenshots, one while the screen is bright, another while it’s pale (10 seconds away from one another) and sent them to another device to check: they are exactly the same. So the problem is definitively linked to the way the screen physically displays what the OS generates, probably affected by a feature telling the screen how to display it (e.g. LiveDisplay).

I don’t really want to downgrade actually. I’d rather like this issue to be fixed. If it does appear this is an OS issue.

Your description now sounds like the difference between auto-brightness and a firmly set brightness level.

@urs_lesse yes I realize that forcing the brightness to maximum fixes the problem.

Actually something has changed between 2.6 and 2.7 because before 2.7, the decrease of the brightness did not lead to such modification of the colours. It’s very hard to explain but now when the brightness decreases, colours are… less warm I’d say.

I wonder if you go to Settings > Display > Colours do the available choices make any impact.

Nope. It has no impact unfortunately.
