Screen Mode. What is yours?

Dynamic, Standard or Movie

Apart from the slight differences you see on the screen picture when selecting each mode, is there any real-term difference in terms of battery life, video performance etc?
I'm thinking its just a brightness/contrast setting and nothing more.

I set mine to Movie as this seems to be the darkest setting, and I suppose there is a good chance that this is slightly better in terms of battery life.
 
I used to use the 'dynamic' setting cause I like the way the colours shot out from the display. Then I realised it made any pictures I took look unrealistic. So I'm using 'Standard' cause the colours are still vibrant but more natural.

'Movie' just makes the whole display look dull...

I'm not sure on the difference on battery between the settings though.
 
I'm using standard. Probably due to pure laziness as the screen looked good when I got the phone so I haven't bothered to change it.

I totally agree... i don't like the others - makes the screen look like an animation
 
Hammerpgh: it's in Settings,display,background effect
u have 3 settings: Dynamic, Standard, and Movie
Dynamic is high contrast, highly saturated colors.
Standard is normal.
Movie is dull and less saturated..

I had kept standard, but changed it to Dynamic after being reminded about it :)
