Xiaomi has hidden a feature to push the limits of screen brightness

There is something else-a somewhat lesser-known jewel that sits right within your device: Extra Dimming. With this feature enabled, you are allowed to lower the brightness of your screen way below the default minimum. It is perfect for reading in bed or in a dark environment. It makes the screen creepily dim, yet readable, therefore decreasing eye strain. Officially, the feature is available only on select models, but the trick to getting it on any Xiaomi, Redmi, or POCO device involves merely a few easy steps. Here’s how you can unleash this superpower hidden within your phone.

What is Extra Dimming?

Extra Dimming overrides the brightness setting of your phone to offer an ultra-low brightness. Yes, even at the lowest setting, the default Xiaomi screens are too bright to bear in pitch-dark rooms. It solves that by:

• Blue light emissions reduction regarding sleep hygiene enhancement.
• Minimizing glare in darkened environments.
• Slightly increase the lifetime of the battery by using fewer pixels at full power.

How to Enable Extra Dimming on Any Xiaomi Phone

Step 1: Download HyperOS Updater

1. Download the free HyperOS Updater app from the Google Play Store.

Step 2: Access Hidden Menu Settings

1. Open the application and move to the tab “Hidden Settings” at the very bottom.
2. Scroll to find the “Extra Dim” option.

Step 3: Activate & Customize

1. Flip the feature ON.
2. Optional: Create a quick settings shortcut for one-tap access.

Why Extra Dimming Matters

1. Eye Health: In the dark, extended exposure to bright screens causes digital eye strain. Extra Dimming mitigates this.
2. Versatility: Perfect for eBook reading, social networking, or as a notification assistant that won’t disturb others.
3. Battery Saver: Lower brightness = marginally longer battery life.
