How bright is the display? Is it easy to see during bright daylight?

In normal day light it still looks pretty good. Although it is a little difficult to see in direct sun light, but that doesn't happen often.

My 52yo eyes like it set to white during daylight, in both the Sienna and the CR-V. (Yup, got 2 of them!) If wired properly, it dims nicely at night too.

Depends on your definition of "well." It doesn't have the best display in bright sunshine, but I manage (barely).

It's bright enough to see but not obnoxiously bright. You can change the level of brightness as well. My son loves his.

This is one of the better monitors I have owned, and I run an IT department with dozens of clients on almost as many different sizes and models of monitors. Out of the box it was a tad bright, but a quick dim and all was well.The base is a bit shaky, but it doesn't take away from the quality of the display. If you're planning on placing it in a high traffic area you should consider using a swing arm or wall mount. Otherwise, this is a great monitor.

It is very bright, I find. Both in dark environs and well lit spaces I can see the display clearly. My old scales are not nearly this visible.

Hi, not too much glare with room lighting. Overall pretty happy with it but keep in mind that you cannot adjust the angle of the display (at least I have not figured it out). but that has not been a problem. Fairly quick but slower than my mac book pro likely because of the solid state drive.

The display has a light blue background with black letters and is very easy to read even in sun light. I use it in a convertible and when the top is down and with bright sunlight, the display is very easy to read.

Yes it is difficult to see in bright sunlite. But as Jamie W. answered, tilting the screen helps.

It is rated at 350 nits, but as a matter of opinion I haven't seen an LCD I liked the performance of in direct sunlight and this display doesn't cross that threshold.

I think the monitor is awesome. The colors are great and I have no major issues with the display. My minor complaint is that the display is exceptionally bright. I have my brightness setting set to zero and it was still a little too bright. I got used to it after a few days though.

Some say it is hard. I find it easy to see in all types of lighting. The backlight works well in dim or dark places. I was in regular daylight today and it was easy to see. Maybe if it was direct sunlight like a bright sunny day with the sun directly on it you may have trouble, but I had plenty of sun in NH today and had no problems.

Yes, adjustable brightness settings allow you to read the screen in bright sunlight. At the max setting, it is more than clear enough for easy reading.

There is no way to make the display brighter. I have problems seeing it during the day. In fact I can't even tell it's on until it makes a noise. The display works best at night while you just have to listen to the different sounds during the day.

The screen itself is not shiny. It has a matte finish. The plastic border however tends to pick up light.I've placed the Hiteker in a room that tends to get a decent amount of sun and I don't have to look around my own reflection to see the image.I've had this HDTV for a few months now and I'm still very please with it for the price.

Yes, you can set a day-time and night-time brightness level. The display is easily visible in sunlight...

It's pretty bright. I don't use it as an alarm clock, but I'll normall turn it off in my den because it draws attention when it's not in use. I really like this unit, but if bright light bothers you, you might want to choose somethiing else.

The actual display area is not glossy and does not have a mirror-like finish, so glare is not as bad as it would be on, say, an old style CRT. However, if you have a lot of light behind you, it can show on parts of the display that are dark, though it is much less noticeable on bright areas. Overall I'd say it does very well at dealing with glare.
