When it comes to calibrating and testing displays, DisplayMate is technically proficient and holds significant place in observers minds. They recently closely examined the screen from the latest Samsung Galaxy S IV. After conducting testing the specialised screen examiner has given the Super AMOLED display of Galaxy S IV a thumbs up, as it is way better than the screen of Galaxy S III. DisplayMate stated that it’s a good enough reason to replace an S III with S IV. Here is what they said, “The Galaxy S4 display is a major enhancement and improvement over the Galaxy S III – a good reason to consider trading up. The screen has Full HD 1920×1080 resolution with more than double the number of pixels and with 44 percent higher Pixels Per Inch than the Galaxy S III. It is 25 percent brighter (and up to 68 percent brighter with Automatic Brightness) and the display is 20 percent more power efficient. The Galaxy S4 also has 5 user selectable Screen Modes and delivers much better picture quality and colour accuracy.”
During the test DisplayMate has not only covered the accuracy and brightness of Galaxy S IV display, but it has also examined the colour gamut, power efficiency and its performance in strong ambient lightning. DisplayMate has not only compared the AMOLED display of the Galaxy S IV with S III, in fact, it has also weigh it against iPhone 5’s LCD screen. However, after checking the weaknesses and strengths of both smartphone displays the company declared it an even contest. Here is what DisplayMate said after comparing the two screens:
“The iPhone 5 is now more than half way through its product cycle, which is important to keep in mind for our comparison. However, high-end LCDs like the iPhone 5 are a very mature and refined display technology, so other than screen size, resolution, and the Pixels Per Inch not much is likely to change in the next generation, no matter what Apple decides to do. The iPhone 5 is significantly brighter than the Galaxy S4, particularly for screens with mostly peak white backgrounds.
“Its colour calibration is a bit better, although the Galaxy S4 has a more accurate White. The Galaxy S4 has a much bigger screen, higher resolution, higher PPI, much darker blacks, and better screen uniformity than the iPhone 5. They each have their own particular strengths and weaknesses, but if you scan our colour coordinated Comparison Table, both displays are quite good and comparable overall – so it’s currently a tie.”
