That’s basically what I said before my comment was deleted.

Guess critisim is tolerated exactly as much as I expected. When do the rest of the critisms get deleted?

I think both the 65% and equal nits test are poor judgments of use.

A vast majority of people just turn on auto brightness and leave it alone. That is what they should do in the test. Use it in a variety of situations and conditions. The whole full-blast-constant-use test is also not indicative of real use. Standby battery life is an important and variable aspect of battery life.

Unfortunately that kind of test is harder to create and control for fairness … But, that’s why they earn the big bucks. Testing over a week instead of 12 hours is a better result, but won’t earn you the spot of first review they obviously want.
