Pros

  • Anti-reflective film that improves screen readability
  • Well-managed frame drops when playing video games
  • Smooth display reaction in every use case

Cons

  • Lack of readability under sunlight
  • Color rendering appears unnatural in outdoor conditions.
  • Lack of uniformity in brightness and color

The Honor Magic V2 achieved a very high score in its display tests thanks to big improvements over its predecessor the Magic Vs in all attributes, especially video and touch.

The unfolded screen’s readability benefited from the anti-reflective film, especially when used outdoors. The film’s effectiveness on most light wavelengths as well as the screen’s lack of flicker lifted the device’s artifacts score close to the top. The Magic V2’s peak brightness, however, was measured at 950 nits, lower than the 2500 nits advertised, and was even a bit lower than the Magic Vs. The gamma was also better on the Magic V2 because the rendering under sunlight was a bit more natural.

The device provided a very satisfying video-watching experience thanks to the screen’s brightness for HDR10 video as well as the display’s color fidelity.

The Honor Magic V2 screen’s refresh rate has increased to 120 Hz, up from the already good 90 Hz of the Magic Vs. In addition, the display’s touch interactions were very accurate and smooth.

Pros

  • Smooth display experience when scrolling the web or playing video games
  • Adapted brightness in low-light conditions
  • Pleasing color rendering in indoor conditions

Cons

  • Many frame mismatches when playing video games or watching videos
  • Lack of brightness and dark details when watching HDR10 videos
  • Display is not uniform

The Xiaomi 14 had a mixed display performance in our tests, although it offered a very smooth screen experience in all use cases, with a steady performance in the readability and color attributes.

The device’s overall performance, however, did not quite reach that of the predecessor Xiaomi 13, weighed down by the display’s performance in the motion attribute and instability when watching HDR videos.

The Xiaomi 14’s screen also lacked uniformity in brightness and color.

Although Xiaomi says that the device can reach a peak brightness of 3000 nits, our tests showed the device reaching 2740 nits — but only for HDR video content. Our experts measured 923 nits under 20K lux and only 1490 nits under 100K lux on a classic (20% window) white image pattern. Therefore, the Xiaomi 14 might fall a bit short on readability for intense lighting conditions. However, the display managed its brightness well, particularly in low-light conditions.

Although the device showed an improvement in artifacts management over the Xiaomi 13, the screen registered a high level of flicker in default mode (an anti-flicker feature that is available to limit this phenomenon), similar to the Xiaomi 13. Strong aliasing was also visible while gaming.

Pros

  • Well-suited brightness levels for different lighting conditions
  • Best-in-class motion management
  • Accurate, reactive, and smooth touch panel
  • Good HDR video experience in low-light conditions

Cons

  • Immediate color shift when viewing at an angle
  • Perceivable striped pattern on a dark uniform background when in dark-room conditions

The Honor Magic6 Pro Display put in a top-scoring performance, with an all-around excellent user experience in all our use cases, particularly in gaming.

The Magic6 Pro’s readability was overall excellent in all lighting environments, with a steady and reliable performance. While the maximum brightness did not reach the same levels attained by the Galaxy S24 Ultra or even some of the Magic6 Pro’s competitors, the screen was consistently and comfortably readable in all conditions – not too bright in low-light or dark conditions and not too dark when outdoors to affect the user experience. Additionally, the outdoor brightness level remained consistent for all types of displayed content, which is not the case for most competitors’ devices, whose display luminance decreases as white areas on the screen increase. Although the device appeared uniform in our test, a faint striped pattern was visible on the screen when room or background conditions turned dark. However, this striped pattern was not visible in other lighting conditions.

The screen’s colors were generally accurate and quite stable outdoors, but our testers did note some immediate color shifts when holding the device at an angle. Although most screens shift colors at wide angles, the Magic6 Pro’s colors were shifting at relatively lower angles when compared with the competition.

The video-watching experience was quite satisfying and comfortable, with appropriate luminosity and good details in the dark tones, especially when viewing videos at night.

The device’s display showed significant improvements over its predecessor the Honor Magic5 Pro in all subscores, especially in motion. The Magic6 Pro achieved a top score in motion thanks to its exceptional management of frame mismatches and motion blur, providing the user with an excellent experience watching high-quality videos or playing video games. Also contributing to the top score in motion was the absence of any delayed playback when sliding forward or backward on a video.

In touch, the Honor Magic6 Pro came very close to the top score, but the screen lacked some smoothness when viewing the gallery. However, users who like to play video games on their phones should take note of the Honor Magic6 Pro’s touch response time, which at 53 ms shows a marked improvement from the Magic5 Pro’s 70 ms, and even surpassed the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+’s measured 65 ms. (For those keeping track, the fastest touch response time we have tested so far was on the Lenovo Legion Y90, which clocked in at 41 ms!)

When it came to artifacts, the Honor Magic6 Pro managed them very well. No unintended touches were being executed on the screen, and the display was free of flicker.

Pros

  • Good readability under sunlight thanks to a very high peak brightness
  • Accurate color rendering in most lighting environments
  • Excellent management of frame mismatches when watching  videos or playing video games

Cons

  • Excessively high brightness levels in HDR video playback
  • Lack of brightness and details in indoor lighting environment
  • Poor management of involuntary touches

The Samsung Galaxy S24 nearly matched the display performance of the top-of-the-line S24 Ultra, thanks to achieving two top scores in readability and touch, but the smaller device was held back due to its management of artifacts.

Even though the devices have key differences, mainly in size, chipset, and glass, the Galaxy S24’s display behavior was very similar to that of the Ultra version. The 6.2-inch S24, like the 6.7-inch S24+, was released with the latest version of  Samsung’s in-house chip, Exynos 2400, while the 6.8-inch S24 Ultra sports Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. The S24’s glass protection is the same as the one used on the S23 series, whereas the S24 Ultra’s display has glass reinforced with anti-reflective properties, which played a role in artifacts management.

While the lack of an anti-reflective screen cost the S24 significant points in artifacts, due to poor reflection management, it could also be said that the older glass was a contributing factor in S24 attaining a top score in readability. When it came to luminance, the S24 achieved a slightly higher peak than the already-impressive peak of the S24 Ultra, making the S24 a very readable screen in sunlight. Peak brightness, better gamma management under sunlight, and a more uniform screen all helped the device achieve a top score in the readability attribute.

In our display evaluation, our testers found the S24’s screen colors to be a huge improvement over the predecessor S23. The colors on the S24 were much more accurate than on previous S-series models, particularly outdoors, correcting the color artifact noticed on the S23 series. The S24 series’ new type of color signature, with the same color rendering across all three models, offers much more of a “natural” rendering compared to the previous series. However, when viewing the S24 screen on an angle, screen colors did change, but not as much as they did on the S24 Ultra, a factor that helped the S24 achieve a slightly better score in the color attribute.

An overly bright screen can make watching videos in a dark environment quite uncomfortable if the device does not sufficiently decrease brightness. In our tests, the S24’s screen, like on the S24 Ultra, lost some points here for remaining much too bright when viewing videos.

In the motion attribute, stutter was visible when resuming the video in playback, showing that the S24 was a bit slower than the S24 Ultra in execution.

The S24 reached a top score for its touch interactions, which were accurate and smooth, with a fast response time.

The S24’s impressive display performance earned it the top spot so far among devices in the Premium segment.

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 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.

Pros

  • Good color rendering in most lighting conditions
  • Touch interactions are quite smooth and accurate in most use cases
  • No flicker and more comfortable to use in low-light environment

Cons

  • Lacks brightness when playing HDR10 video
  • When playing video games, frame mismatches are visible
  • Lack of screen brightness and details under sunlight conditions

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G had a mixed performance in our DXOMARK Display tests, with the High-end phone’s screen staying true to colors amid uneven brightness levels that affected the overall user experience.

The Redmi Note 13 Pro+’s flicker-free screen was comfortable to use particularly when indoors and in low light, providing consistently good colors in most use cases. But readability of the screen declined when outdoors, as the control of brightness levels became unstable in sunlight, making some color nuances appear flat.

Watching HDR videos in a dark environment was affected by the screen’s lack of brightness and many of the video’s details were hard to see. The video experience was also affected by the delayed resumption of playback after sliding backward or forward on a video.

Touch interactions when scrolling the web or viewing photos were quite smooth, and response time was overall very fast. However, when playing video games, the screen was vulnerable to many unintended touches and mismatched frames.

Pros

  • Good readability under sunlight thanks to a very high peak brightness
  • Improved management of screen reflections, thanks to advanced glass technology
  • Accurate color rendering  in most lighting environments
  • Excellent management of frame mismatches when watching all types of videos or playing video games

Cons

  • Excessively high brightness levels in video performance
  • Lack of brightness and details in indoor lighting environment
  • Poor management of involuntary touches

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra’s screen performance earned the flagship device the overall top spot in our Display protocol ranking, thanks to the marked improvements in nearly all attributes, particularly over its predecessor the S23 Ultra.

In readability, the S24 Ultra was just shy of achieving the top score with its impressive performance in challenging environments. In our tests under bright sunlight, the device achieved a measured peak brightness of 2572 nits (close to the 2600 advertised), which is significantly above the Galaxy S23 Ultra’s 1750 nits. Moreover, the addition of an anti-reflective glass serves to deepen contrast to make the images more vivid in challenging conditions. These combined performances mean that in direct sunlight, it’s not necessary to find a shaded area or to cover the screen with one’s hand to be able to see and read what is on the display. While performance was great outdoors, the screen’s brightness could be a little imprecise in other conditions: our testing results showed that screen brightness sometimes could be too high at night and too low in indoor environments.

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra’s color fidelity and rendering were much better than the S23 Ultra’s, particularly outdoors where the S24 Ultra corrected the lack of color shades of its predecessor, but still came in a bit behind the top score. Also, viewing the screen at an angle would show a slight shift to pink and green.

Motion performance garnered a top score for S24 Ultra because of the excellent way it managed frame mismatches when playing videos. Additionally, the display would adapt its refresh rate to that of the video frame rate, thus avoiding judder.

The S24 Ultra should have provided a very similar video experience as its predecessor, but that was not the case. The S24 Ultra was unable to achieve the S23 Ultra’s top-scoring performance in video mainly because the screen was too bright to view the content comfortably under a low-light environment.

The device’s redesigned edged display probably contributed to improvements over the S23 Ultra in terms of touch interactions and accuracy, although there were occasions of unintentional touches when playing video games. Scrolling the web and viewing the gallery were overall smooth experiences. Touch reactivity also quickened slightly over the S23 Ultra, which was already quite good.

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

Overview

Key display specifications:

  • 7.82 inches Flexi-fluid AMOLED, (~90.4% screen-to-body ratio)
  • Dimensions: 153.4 x 73.3 x 11.7 mm (6.04 x 2.89 x 0.46 inches) closed

Pros

  • Good color rendering when viewing photos in the gallery and web browsing
  • Good readability, which improves in outdoor conditions thanks to the anti-reflection film
  • Smooth interactions when playing video games and scrolling on the web

Cons

  • Disappointing HDR video experience under dark room due to lack of brightness and details
  • Occasionally visible frames mismatches when playing video games
    The OnePlus Open, the first foldable device from OnePlus, showed an impressive performance in our display testing, with strong results in readability, color, and artifacts.

The OnePlus Open’s readability was among the best we have seen so far, scoring near the top of the readability attribute. Color was also a high-performing attribute, coming close to a high score. Both attributes contributed to a generally pleasant experience when viewing photos or browsing the web.

Although the screen showed good brightness in indoor conditions, when it came to watching HDR videos, the screen lacked brightness and details, detracting from a pleasant experience.

One of the challenging aspects of a foldable screen for manufacturers is de-emphasizing the presence of the middle crease when the phone is unfolded. But the OnePlus Open surprised us in this respect. We evaluated the device unfolded and found the Flexi-fluid AMOLED screen’s crease to be barely visible. In addition, when sliding a finger across the display, the crease was also barely noticeable to the touch. Touch interactions on the OnePlus Open, however, were smooth when scrolling the internet or when playing video games.

The device’s handling of artifacts also earned it a top score in this attribute.

Pros

  • Accurate and smooth touch, with good reaction time in all the use cases
  • Good video performance
  • Very few frame mismatches when playing video games or watching videos

Cons

  • Degraded picture rendering under sunlight, with skin tones appearing flat amid a visibly strong yellow cast
  • When viewed at an angle, screen colors shift from pink to green
  • Low flicker frequency and aliasing

The Samsung Galaxy S23 FE’s overall display performance was average for its category, but the device stood out for its excellent touch performance, which was accurate and smooth in all tested use cases.

Users of the Galaxy S23 FE will also appreciate the device’s motion performance, whether playing games or just watching videos because frame drops were well managed.

The Samsung Galaxy S23 FE fared very well in the video-watching use case for its category. Even though its measured maximum of 1421 nits provided a good user experience in terms of web-page readability, the display’s weak spot was its image rendering under sunlight, where tones were handled in a way that resulted in an important loss of details. Finally,  color rendering was affected in every lighting condition by reflections of pink-to-green arcs on the screen.
