Very vibrant at full brightness

i would not say its very brilliant, instead, its a good display..

its good on full brightess

Could've been better though.

easily readable outdoors, thats quite enough... but it couldve beeen beter at color reproduction.. only a bit though

Colors are not so accurate, but way better than competetors like redmi note 3

I agree

If only KCAL was implemented.

There is slighty bluish tint in display. Colors reproduction is all right. Not great but gets the job done.

Why u see bluish tint?

Colors are almost accurate. A good value for money.

Fine. Just keep on topic and everything will be on line.

Not best but definitely not bad either. In this budget definitely a good choice. Colors are vibrant and sharp

outdoor visibility is pretty good.

Accuracy got better in custom Roms.

Minimum brightness

You don't want to give your significant other yet another reason to yell at you while you're reading XDA in bed. Rate this thread to express what you think of the honor 5X's display minimum dimness. A higher rating indicates that the display can get extremely dim, ideal for reading in very dark environments.

Excellent, it goes really dim! You can use this phone at night without becoming a street light.
You can easily get down to extreme dim level ( No Root Required) on stock using simple Widget/App Dimmer App : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=giraffine.dimmer&hl=en

Hello KoeWaffle,
Thanks for the comment on the Honor 5X. We wanted to make sure that our customers could view things on their device in a variety of settings. (ED)
It will be great if they include night mode.

Android Nougat have an (un)official support of night-mode.
But yes, we need a F.lux like into the stock mode. Like on CyanogenMod.
Good lighting
Not so low , yet convenient
Minimum brightness is still to bright at night. But fixed by installing screen filters.
Minimum brightness is enough for me.

Found it. Why? It's not comfortable for me.
Minimum brightness is Ok and not bad. Especially during night, minimum brightness is sufficient.
its dim enough for night time.
Too bright for me.
Eye comfort comes in handy.

This one... I think the honor 8 Pro can do better. At minimum brightness settings in a dark room, I think it's still bright. <-- Example of usage: Watching videos in bedroom with lights turned off. I know of phones that can go even lower in terms of brightness.
Agree, the minimum brightness could be a bit lower. It is good/ok atm.
For me, it's ok.
Edit - It should have been better

Another too bright minimum. Needs screen protector.
At nights, i use less brightness, I didn't feel pain to see the screen.

I'd suggest the app called Darker to reduce brightness at very low levels.

adaptive brightness is not good
Honor 8 Pro adaptive brightness is not working properly in phone. sometimes it dims to lowest value and does not increase at all in bright light condition.
manageable. most of the time I can use with minimum brightness under dark condition or night. no problem faced till date.
no problem in night or dark room
dim enough for night usage
Comfortable with eyes.

Outdoor visibility (max brightness)

Rate this thread to express how well you can see the Xiaomi Mi Max 2's display outdoors. In case you've been playing Minecraft for 18 months straight, you might not known how to get outside anymore. Well, find the door and walk through it. A higher rating indicates that it has very high maximum brightness and thus fantastic outdoor visibility in direct sunlight.

Little bit washed out. Not as good as AMOLED display.
Do you all have the TIANMA R63350 display type or does xiaomi use different manufacturers?

True, but are you willing to pay a lot of extra for getting an AMOLED in Xiaomi phone? You do understand how much would the phone cost?

Color saturation & accuracy

If you're colorblind, please disregard this thread. Rate this thread to express how you deem the color saturation and accuracy of the Xiaomi Mi A1's display. A higher rating indicates that you think that color accuracy is very high and saturation is excellent.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
I don't know how to check/test color accuracy. But side to ide with my op5, looks very dull.
i also found the colors to be pretty washed out but thought it was because of it being an lcd and not an amoled. I just installed lineage os and you can tune the colors to whatever you like. it certainly looks very different. I am satisfied now. It looks better to me than the note 2 and the lg g5 which are the only devices I can compare it to.

I totally agree. This was the single reason to my for flashing a custom rom. My display is made by Tianma and was calibrated way too cold.
After installing LOS 15.1 and voidkernel i used kernel adiutor to calibrate de colors and saturation. This is my color profile: RGB=237,238,252 Saturation=45.
Some more good profile for our device..
Who else have different configuration please share it with us
yeah will be nice people able to reach good result, share theyr screen configuration!!!
I don't think that sharing color profiles would be very useful. Mi A1 is a low budget phone with different types of displays from different manufacturers. Each display will have another tint, so you can't really compare color values. My display was very blueish, I had to reduce blue and green in order to get a proper calibrated screen.
So, maybe you can suggest software/way to calibrate good the display?

There are different ways. You could either flash a custom rom with display adjustment capabilities, like LinageOS or RR. Or you just flash a custom kernel and calbirate the screen with Kernel Adiutor.

Well, it is possible to easily root Mi A1 and then adjust the colour, so I don't see a problem here

they have not the same exact display, because both (mi a1 - Mi 5x) can have 2-3 different screen model.

yes sir, it is possible..
in my point of view, after a few months my eyes adjust itself to the "color scheme" of the MiA1..

Contrast (true blacks)

How well do you know your fifty shades of grey? Rate this thread to express how good the Google Pixel 3a's display contrast is. A higher rating indicates that black is true black, rather than a very dark gray.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
The contrast goes down with lower brightness. It'sreally annoying and even makes it hard to read sometimes

Well, I still wanted to throw this here because I didn't expect it to be such a cheap panel and I don't see any reviews even mentioning that.
Im using Screen Balance or EZXM Kernel to fix this,. Never seen before december 2019,.
