    I've got auto-brightness set on the new one (Samsung), but I've only had it a couple of weeks. If you turned up the screen on the old one, you could almost hear the battery draining down.

    But I've had that issue with screen-only cameras as well, like the Canon Elph series. (GF's current one is a 180HS, I think the older one was a 100HS.)
    Yoga class makes me feel like a total stud, mostly because I'm about as flexible as a 2x4.
    "Design"? Possibly. "Intelligent"? Sure doesn't look like it from this angle.

    I was taking pictures at the beach in bright sunlight and could not see the image on the screen of my iPhone 11 Pro. And that's with an OLED screen, not a LCD, and brightness turned up. I just pointed the back of the phone in the general direction figuring that I could crop in post processing.

    That's one of the shortcomings of the iPhone when using it as a camera - but I still use it because of other advantages (like it produces good images and I can put it in my pocket).
