Overview
- Extra Dim now activates automatically at the lowest brightness setting on the Pixel 10 and deactivates when brightness is raised.
- Google has removed the separate Extra Dim toggle and shortcuts after folding the feature into the primary slider.
- The integration is currently limited to the Pixel 10 lineup, though reports suggest a broader rollout could follow.
- Extra Dim originated in Android 12 and reduces perceived brightness by altering RGB pixel values beyond the panel’s hardware minimum.
- Pixel 10 display updates emphasize comfort with Adaptive Tone and a higher PWM dimming rate rather than major panel changes.
