To recall, the iPhone 12 Pro had a strong Blue light filter that impacted the reading at night according to earlier DXOMARK testing. In any case, the Vivo X51 has a much bigger screen(aspect ratio: 20:9) compared to the iPhone 12 Pro(19.5:9). Let’s quickly look at the display specs of the former below:

• Size: 6.56-inch
• Dimensions: 158.5 x 72.8 x 8 mm
• Type: AMOLED display with 90Hz refresh rate
• Resolution: 1080 x 2376 pixels

To sum up, if you talk about the Pros and Cons, the Pros of Vivo X51 include good color reproduction(across all lighting), indoor brightness, motion-blur, and blue-light filter. However, it has some major Cons like Touch accuracy(gaming), lack of smoothness, outdoor brightness, video(darker HDR10 content).
