Is the display on this COMPLETELY READABLE in BRIGHT SUNLIGHT?

Yes the display is readable in bright sunlight. To make the battery last I have a battery management program on it and it will dim it when in doors and brighten it when out doors.

It's real big display. You will have no problem reading it. That's a reason I bought it too is because of big display. Hope that helps you

The display does light up, however, we usually read it in daylight . In daylight it is very easy to see . Sorry I don't know more about its visibility at night.

Yes, you can see the screen in bright sun light pretty good - just tried it for you today.

Yes, adjustable brightness settings allow you to read the screen in bright sunlight. At the max setting, it is more than clear enough for easy reading.

Hi it's just ok in bright sunlight, but same definition in bright sunlight as my Garmin Zumo 660. I've had two Rider 2's both have had problems when in it comes updating the maps. Their customer service puts you through a frustrating delaying process in the hope you will give up and go away. My first Rider 2 card reader failed and the second one the casing developed cracks and fell of my bike dangling by the safety strap. So I finally got the message and bought a Garmin. I hope this helps. Happy riding Andy

I don't think it is but the screen is sharp and you can adjust the brightness very easiily

Yes - I have found it depends on the color you choose. Overall I have found a few color combinations that allow me to see the display in daylight. I love this unit! It has everything and is well designed. My only complaint is the songs from radio are not displayed (title/artist)

The screen is bright but in direct sunlight on a very sunny day it will be hard to see. To solve that problem you can purchase a Hoodmam to place over the screen the screen so it can be viewed.

The display can be seen in the dark, there are lights but I don't think it's backlit and I did not see a brightness adjustment so I don't believe there is one.

Yes it is difficult to see in bright sunlite. But as Jamie W. answered, tilting the screen helps.

You can adjust the color and brightness of the display. In standard mode it's too bright at night. Switch to red or green and it's fine (but hard to read in sunlight).

It is very bright, I find. Both in dark environs and well lit spaces I can see the display clearly. My old scales are not nearly this visible.

Hi Jack, Even when the sun is high and glaring directly on my LCD screen, I still can see my subject! Buy it. You'll love it.

I think it is, but bear in mind that the quality of this thing is very low, as per my review. I recommend a higher resolution display.

I have never read mine in the sunlight outside. It comes with adjustable brightness option and I believe an auto adjust option.

No..the display will be on the screen all the time.....it will become brighter when the unit is turned on.....
