Brightness issue Z3 D6603 23.4.1.232

My Sony Xperia Z3 D6603 has an uncommon brightness issue. After unlocking the phone from stand-by the brightness is noticeable lower than the one I set, without adaptive brightness on, and after a short period of time, usually under 30 sec, the brightness goes up to the level I set it, and stays like that as long as the display is on. This problem repeats randomly, but very often, maybe 80% of the cases. The difference in display brightness when this happens is probably 10% - 15% and is very annoying. I already did a factory reset and a fresh install via PC Companion with no results. The phone is 2 months old, no major software update until now so I can't tell if it's a software or hardware problem. Has anyone have the same issue? What do you think is a soft or hard problem? Any ideas of a fix is very wellcomed. Thanks!

Low battery mode is off. Stamina mode is off.

That's strange because it should have been fixed:

LE: Sorry, it seems you have a different issue.

My phone's problem is a little bit different, it's dimm when unlocked and gets brighter after a few seconds - a minute.

I have the same problem but it's said that the solution is turning off the adaptive brightness which I wouldn't try it

Turning off the adaptive brightness is not the solution. I don't use adaptive brightness. It happens even with adaptive brightness on, so...

This is independent of the state of adaptive brightness.
