From the article Can DxO PhotoLab 6 Elite Knock Lightroom Classic Out of the Ballpark?

"DxO PhotoLab 6 and Fujifilm

I had to wait to finish this article as Photolab had not released an optics module update for the X-T5. I suspect the long wait is due to the significant extra testing DxO does.

I started testing using images from an X-T3 and an X-T4. At default values, the images opened in PhotoLab 6 were very similar to those produced by Capture One and far superior to Lightroom’s, through which the photos seemed bleached in comparison. Green foliage in PhotoLab was far better defined and overall crisper.

Moving onto the image I used in the earlier programs from the X-T5, there was a stark difference in results at default values. The grass, which was in shadow, was far brighter, and the detail in the leaves did not show the strange artifacts that were visible in Lightroom."

Take a look at the entire article.

Not really news as everyone beats adobe's raw processing - they haven't made any changes to it in years - they just keep adding new functions to LR but the core raw processing engine hasn't been touched in years.

Its acceptable but certainly not the best.
