Pros

  • Uniform in brightness and color
  • Well-managed brightness and colors for HDR10 videos
  • Accurate and very responsive to touch when playing video games

Cons

  • No high brightness mode
  • Slow falling light transitions with visible steps
  • Ghost touches when playing video games, especially in landscape mode

The Asus ROG Phone 6 is quite a good device, with a display that is uniform in brightness and color. In addition, HDR10 videos are pleasant to watch, thanks to good management of brightness and contrast. The gaming experience is globally good, as the device is accurate and responds quickly to touch when playing video games. However, its lack of high brightness mode means that the ROG Phone 6 is hard to read under sunlight; further, its transitions are slow and show steps as it adapts to falling light transitions.

Test summary

About DXOMARK Display tests: For scoring and analysis in our smartphone and other display reviews, DXOMARK engineers perform a variety of objective and perceptual tests under controlled lab and real-life conditions. Note that we evaluate display attributes using only the device’s built-in display hardware and its still image (gallery) and video apps at their default settings. (For in-depth information about how we evaluate smartphone and other displays, check out our articles, “How DXOMARK tests display quality” and “A closer look at DXOMARK Display testing.

The following section gathers key elements of our exhaustive tests and analyses performed in DXOMARK laboratories. Detailed performance evaluations under the form of reports are available upon request. Do not hesitate to contact us.

How Display Readability score is composed

Readability evaluates how easily and comfortably users can read still content (photos & web) on the display under different real-life conditions. DXOMARK uses its Display Bench to recreate ambient light conditions ranging from total darkness to bright sunlight. In addition to laboratory tests, perceptual analysis is also made in real-life environments.

How Display Color score is composed

The color attribute evaluates the capacity of the device to accurately reproduce colors. The measurements taken are for fidelity, white point color, and gamut coverage. We perform color evaluations for different lighting conditions to see how well the device can manage color in the surrounding environment. Colors are measured using a spectrophotometer in a controlled lighting environment. Perceptual analysis of color rendering is against the reference pattern displayed on a calibrated professional monitor.

Each arrow represents the color difference between a target color pattern (base of the arrow) and its actual measurement (tip of the arrow). The longer the arrow, the more visible the color difference is. If the arrow stays within the circle, the color difference will be visible only to trained eyes.
Color behavior on angle
This graph shows the color shift when the screen is at an angle. Each dot represents a measurement at a particular angle. Dots inside the inner circle exhibit no color shift in angle; those between the inner and outer circle have shifts that only trained experts will see; but those falling outside the outer circle are noticeable.

How Display Video score is composed

Our video attribute evaluates the Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) and High Dynamic Range (HDR10) video handling of each device in indoor and low-light conditions. We measure tone mapping, color gamut, brightness and contrast of the display. We perform perceptual analysis against our professional reference monitor (Sony BVM-HX310) to ensure that the rendering respects the artistic intent.

Gamut coverage for video content
HDR10 Gamut coverage
SDR Gamut coverage
The primary colors are measured both in HDR10 and SDR. The extracted color gamut shows the extent of the color area that the device can render. To respect the artistic intent, the measured gamut should match the master color space of each video.

The HDR10 gamut measurements were done using 80% red, green, and blue test patterns. Indeed, a strong desaturation was measured when using our usual 100% red, green and blue patterns leading to a strongly reduced gamut.

This photo shows the HDR10 color levels of the Asus ROG Phone 6 being desaturated past 80%.

Pros

  • No frame drops when playing video games
  • Satisfactory smoothness in every use case
  • Decent accuracy when playing video games

Cons

  • Not uniform in color and brightness
  • Poorly managed brightness and color for HDR10 videos
  • Lack of brightness and details under sunlight

The Black Shark 5 Pro’s best attribute is its smoothness, with good fluidity in every use case. This good control of motion teams up with good accuracy and an absence of frame drops to provide a good overall gaming experience. However, the device has below-average readability, especially under sunlight, and both its brightness and color are noticeably non-uniform across the screen. One of its weakest points is its handling of HDR10 videos, with poor brightness and a strongly visible green cast contributing to an unpleasant viewing experience.

We put the Vivo X80 Lite 5G through our rigorous DXOMARK Display test suite to measure its performance across six criteria. In this test results summary, we will break down how it fared in a variety of tests and several common use cases.

Overview

Key display specifications:

  • 6.44 inches AMOLED, ~85.2% screen-to-body ratio
  • Dimensions: 165.0 x 75.2 x 8.3 mm (6.50 x 2.96 x 0.33 inches)
  • Resolution: 1080 x 2404 pixels, (~409 ppi density)
  • Aspect ratio: 20:9
  • Refresh rate: 90 Hz

Pros

  • Good color fidelity in every use case
  • Accurate touch and well-managed frame drops when playing video games
  • Good uniformity in brightness and color

Cons

  • Brightness adaptation to ambient lighting changes lacks smoothness
  • Visible blue to pink irisation when viewed on angle
  • Lacks brightness under sunlight

The Vivo X80 Lite 5G has good color fidelity, along with good uniformity for both brightness and color. Its biggest drawback is its readability in low-light conditions, where it exhibits instability — that is, even at the same ambient light level, the display produces different levels of brightness. Further, the device’s high brightness mode lends an unnatural aspect to skin tones in outdoor conditions. Although frame drops are rare when playing videos games, the X80 Lite 5G does not provide a comfortable user experience because it is not very smooth and shows visible aliasing.

Test summary

About DXOMARK Display tests: For scoring and analysis in our smartphone and other display reviews, DXOMARK engineers perform a variety of objective and perceptual tests under controlled lab and real-life conditions. Note that we evaluate display attributes using only the device’s built-in display hardware and its still image (gallery) and video apps at their default settings. (For in-depth information about how we evaluate smartphone and other displays, check out our articles, “How DXOMARK tests display quality” and “A closer look at DXOMARK Display testing.

How Display Color score is composed

The color attribute evaluates the capacity of the device to accurately reproduce colors. The measurements taken are for fidelity, white point color, and gamut coverage. We perform color evaluations for different lighting conditions to see how well the device can manage color in the surrounding environment. Colors are measured using a spectrophotometer in a controlled lighting environment. Perceptual analysis of color rendering is against the reference pattern displayed on a calibrated professional monitor.

Pros

  • Well-managed HDR10 video contrast and good perceptual rendering
  • Good color fidelity overall
  • Image enhancement increases readability under sunlight.

Cons

  • Brightness is too low in nighttime conditions.
  • Unnatural color rendering under sunlight
  • Many frame mismatches when playing video games

The overall Display score of the Vivo X80 Pro (Snapdragon) comes in just behind that of the MediaTek version, with the Snapdragon version showing some of the same strengths, such as good management of HDR video contrast and good indoor color fidelity. While it employs image enhancement to make images more readable under direct sunlight, its color rendering of skin tones in particular appears unnatural in extreme lighting conditions. As with its stablemate, brightness on the Snapdragon version is too low (2 nits) in nighttime conditions. It also showed many frame mismatches when playing video games.

Cons

  • Not very smooth when playing videos games
  • Lacks readability under sunlight.
  • Brightness is too low in nighttime conditions.

Its DXOMARK Display overall score just edging out that of its Snapdragon sibling’s, the MediaTek version of the Vivo X80 Pro is a good smartphone for both watching videos and browsing the web. It has good overall color performance — coming close to the current top score for this attribute — and shows good uniformity across the screen for both brightness and color. While the Vivo X80 Pro (MediaTek) handles artifacts well, gamers may find it lacking in smoothness. Readability suffers a bit under sunlight, however, and it is a bit dim (2 nits) in low light at night.

Pros

  • Well-managed color rendering in indoor conditions
  • Smooth display when scrolling on the web
  • Fast response time when playing video games

Cons

  • Hardly visible dark shades when watching HDR10 videos
  • Frequent ghost touches
  • Unnatural image adaptation in outdoor conditions

The Xiaomi 12S Ultra’s display experience was average for an Ultra-premium device.

The display was fine for viewing photos in indoor conditions, with the screen delivering good color rendering. However, outdoors under sunlight, the color rendering was very unnatural.

Viewing HDR10 content was somewhat bothersome because of the screen’s inaccurate tone mapping and low brightness.

The highlight of the display experience on the Xiaomi 12S Ultra was surfing the web because of its smooth interactions and its 120 Hz refresh rate.

Test summary

About DXOMARK Display tests: For scoring and analysis in our smartphone and other display reviews, DXOMARK engineers perform a variety of objective and perceptual tests under controlled lab and real-life conditions. Note that we evaluate display attributes using only the device’s built-in display hardware and its still image (gallery) and video apps at their default settings. (For in-depth information about how we evaluate smartphone and other displays, check out our articles, “How DXOMARK tests display quality” and “A closer look at DXOMARK Display testing.

The following section gathers key elements of our exhaustive tests and analyses performed in DXOMARK laboratories. Detailed performance evaluations under the form of reports are available upon request. Do not hesitate to contact us.

Readability

How Display Readability score is composed

Readability evaluates how easily and comfortably users can read still content (photos & web) on the display under different real-life conditions. DXOMARK uses its Display Bench to recreate ambient light conditions ranging from total darkness to bright sunlight. In addition to laboratory tests, perceptual analysis is also made in real-life environments.

Sony Xperia 5 IV
How Display Color score is composed

The color attribute evaluates the capacity of the device to accurately reproduce colors. The measurements taken are for fidelity, white point color, and gamut coverage. We perform color evaluations for different lighting conditions to see how well the device can manage color in the surrounding environment. Colors are measured using a spectrophotometer in a controlled lighting environment. Perceptual analysis of color rendering is against the reference pattern displayed on a calibrated professional monitor.

Each arrow represents the color difference between a target color pattern (base of the arrow) and its actual measurement (tip of the arrow). The longer the arrow, the more visible the color difference is. If the arrow stays within the circle, the color difference will be visible only to trained eyes.
Color behavior on angle
This graph shows the color shift when the screen is at an angle. Each dot represents a measurement at a particular angle. Dots inside the inner circle exhibit no color shift in angle; those between the inner and outer circle have shifts that only trained experts will see; but those falling outside the outer circle are noticeable.

Video

Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra (Snapdragon)
How Display Video score is composed

Our video attribute evaluates the Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) and High Dynamic Range (HDR10) video handling of each device in indoor and low-light conditions. We measure tone mapping, color gamut, brightness and contrast of the display. We perform perceptual analysis against our professional reference monitor (Sony BVM-HX310) to ensure that the rendering respects the artistic intent.

Gamut coverage for video content
HDR10 Gamut coverage
SDR Gamut coverage
The primary colors are measured both in HDR10 and SDR. The extracted color gamut shows the extent of the color area that the device can render. To respect the artistic intent, the measured gamut should match the master color space of each video.

Motion
