I'm fairly confident I saw a post from a person that bought a 128GB after owning a 256GB and they said the brightness was better.
For anyone happy with their brightness and contrast, would you be able to post the first 5 digits of your serial number?
I am not happy with mine, my contrast is terrible, so is the brightness - washed out.
I have stock 256GB purchased at Apple Retail store, serial starts with FVFXG
I have been using the Chipmunk serial lookup tool at
http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html and also the information here

The Chipmunk site throws this back at me:
FVFXG = Factory FV, build Year 2018 Week 39
I was wondering, for anyone that has seen either one with a comparably better screen, is the factory also FV?
I was hoping, via a long shot, that if there was a different factory, and I could see the serial number before purchase, I might be in the lottery to get the unicorn brighter screen (if indeed it exists).
Interestingly, I see all of my other Macs that I've owned, they all start with serial C02 (12" Retina, 15" Pro, 13" Pro)..
