Lowest brightness is too bright for Jolla tablet and JollaC
When using the Jolla tablet in a dark room the screen is too bright.
Would it be possible to get the screen more dimmed?
The brightness of the screen is on a good level when the screen fades out right before it is turned of automatically.
Having this same issue with the JollaC.
In the photo it's possible to see the difference between screen brightness for Jolla tablet, Jolla phone and Nexus 7 tablet. All the screens are set to the lowest possible brightness.
I kind of agree. I would be nice if the settings are "extended" to allow to set brightness lower. Current minimum level hurts the eyes in a dark environnment.

Jolla has changed the display and yet they failed to secure readability and eye friendliness upon release. Hope there is room for a software fix. Does Jolla actually use their product outside press conferences and development room?

Tried to adjust it through terminal. /sys/class/leds is empty. /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/ has brightness setting, but even setting it to 0 has the same effect as setting the slider to far left. I'll try other settings later, and post as answer if I'll manage to find a solution.
