I was right there with you until recently. I'm really enjoying the screen of the iPhone 6 so I've started keeping it at around 30-40%. I figure I might as well enjoy what I'm paying for.

I use 25% I honestly don't like a screen so bright, in the sunlight I'll go up to 50-60% and at night ill be around 0-10% again that's just me, I hate a bright screen, I have extremely sensitive eyes and don't like a super bright screen

When I owned my 6 I had to keep the brightness as low as possible to keep the battery life from running out before I got home.

After upgrading to the 6+ I've been rocking a sold 30-50% higher brightness with PLENTY of battery life remaining at the end of the day.

I like to keep mine low but enough to be visible, usually the default is enough.

Unfortunately I don't keep the default because my wife always shoots the brightness to 100% on my phone whenever she uses it for something quick or whenever we're using it together to watch a video. Even in the darkest room she'll max it out then I have to manually bring it back down. :p

70 to 80% bright. No need to not set it where I want it. The battery goes all day+ more. Long enough. Dislike looking at a toooo dim screen.
