    Hi

    I'm planning to buy a X1C with WQHD IPS Screen, non-touch (refurbished), 3rd generation.

    I've read various things about the screen brightness being limited.

    Is it useable outdoors on a bright day (though not in direct sunlight)?
    In a well light office environment?
    What's your usual brightness setting indoor?
    Is text always sharp & readable?

    Would you buy the same model again based on the screen performance? If no, which alternative?

    Thanks for any feedback
