Might be more useful having the empty echo as a result of the actual command. This way you get noticed in case something goes wrong:

sudo echo 2 > /sys/class/backlight/acx565akm/brightness && echo "" || echo "Error!"

In case everything was OK the output is empty, if there was any error, the output will be "Errror!".
