    Hi, Guys!

    I'm a happy owner of 1em29ea one. Can you please confirm or deny the fact that your models screen has little but very annoying brightness (or backlit) fluctuations at MINIMUM brightness level?

    My story is that service center has replaced screen + main board, then replaced the whole notebook, but the problem remains. My screen is FHD wo SureView.

    I have one, but I never run it at minimum brightness. I mostly keep it on auto and so far I've not seen any fluctuations what so ever.

    As far as I know this model has no ambient light sensor, how do you turn auto brightness on?
    Nevertheless can you make a test with minimum brightness please?

    The model I have (Z2W73EA#AK8) definitely has an ambient light sensor. Of all tables I've had throughout the years this is the first one where the ambient light sensor actually does a good job.

    To enable the ambient light sensor I simply toggle the display brightness by the battery symbol in the Windows 10 tray a few times until you reach the auto mode. Kept the display on lowest brightness for a few minutes tonight and I noticed no fluctuations.
