Maximum brightness

Maximum brightness refers to the highest level of light output that a source, such as a screen or lamp, can produce. In the context of displays, it indicates how bright the image can get, which is essential for visibility in well-lit environments. A higher maximum brightness improves contrast and detail in images, making them clearer and more vibrant. For everyday devices like smartphones or TVs, maximum brightness is measured in nits, with higher numbers indicating a better ability to combat glare and deliver a sharp viewing experience, especially in direct sunlight or bright rooms.
