With my phone (a Motorola G5+), adaptive brightness quickly ramps up the 
brightness when outdoors, so in that case it is actually useful.  The 
problem I have is in low light conditions, where the phone tends to 
reduce the brightness too much, at least for my eyes.

In case it's not obvious, the adaptive brightness feature is intended to 
save battery power.
