Personally I read without the frontlight during the day/in well-lit rooms.
If you want read from a glowing screen you might as well use a smartphone or tablet. (I understand the technology is different, but still.)
Genuinely curious to hear from some people reading with the frontlight on at all times!

Same here. I’ve never gone over 12%, and mostly stick in the 2-8% range at night, depending in ambient light. In daylight I can’t see the difference whether the light is on or not, so I turn it off.
At 100% the device could be useful if you’re reading during a power outage at night, I guess
I would personally prefer a more granular level of control at the lower end of the brightness range, and a less powerful light overall. I don’t see the point of having such a powerful light either. It’s so you can read in the dark, as you say.
I have seen a few reviews of readers where they compare the brightness of two devices on the max setting, and found this to be bizarre. It’d make more sense to me to compare the lowest settings in the dark.
