So... I bought Viture XR Pro glasses about a month ago now. It has just recently gone over the typical Amazon, one month refund. I update my phone to OneUI 7. And now I feel like I just wasted £400.

I only ever use my glasses at night. While reading or watching a show. Transparency, along with a black background, almost me to essential turn down the brightness. Without it, the glasses are simply too bright even at it's lowest mode. 

And, yes Samsung has the "Extra Dim" accessibility... but it's simply just not dim enough. I would usually use Extra Dim + Transparency and adjust is to the right brightness. But, Extra Dim alone is still bright when you're in a dark room. 

... do I have to just sell my Viture XR Pro now? 
actually, better question, can I downgrade? 

That includes with like root or something, I'm willing to break warranty or whatever the downsides are to downgrade.

If I bought an S24 or any phone previous will it by default come with OneUI 7?

What's the latest phone that doesn't come with OneUi 7?

... and, honestly I don't think anything else in Samsung DeX even changed? Why did they remove the one feature I needed? What the *****?

I found this subreddit response about someone saying that the OS (at least the Pixel) can set a minimum extra dim. I'll have to try this on my phone tomorrow. It's possible- they almost definitely have set the minimum extra dimness too high.

I would take a look at Goodlock options, i used it for Resolution and Refresh bypasses.

There's no setting for it in the MultiStar app.

Just checked also this is all there is, but I doubt Samsung design it with every 3rd party in mind, try and send feedback via the Members App.

It's not a third party thing - as there's no transparency option wo on a regular monitor, or just regular pop-up windows, and they didn't "design" anything.

They just removed a feature... for seemingly no reason...

Best ask, suggest them to add, usually Goodlock is the place for most niche things removed.
