The Pixel 5 is Google’s premium offering that comes with many high-end features such as Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G processor and runs on the latest Android 11 operating system. It equips a 6.0-inch OLED display with 1080 x 2340p and a 90Hz display refresh rate.
According to the latest display review of the device by DXOMARK, in terms of display, the Pixel 5 has received an overall 74 points and placed at number 14 among other flagships. As per the review, the phone has relatively strong performance in terms of color, motion, and touch, but it is not able to make it to the forefront because of its legibility and poor video performance.
Although the Google Pixel 5 display can handle color and movement well, and the touch control is not bad, unfortunately, the overall screen performance of the phone is still not satisfactory. The image aspect still needs improvement before it can compete with the other flagship phones.

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. This article highlights the most important results of the testing.
Note that DXOMARK 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.”)
