Remember those days when iPhones had the best displays in the industry. Those days are far long gone. Display, in my opinion is the most important component in a mobile hardware.
According to displaymate.com, Samsung galaxy S5 is currently the smartphone with the best display. So what makes Galaxy S5's display so good?
First the S5 use Full HD screen, that is 1920 x 1080 pixels, come that to iPhone 5S's laughable 1136 x 640 pixels. This gives S5 more than 2 million pixels while 5S has only 727, 040 pixels. That's nothing to be proud of since Full HD screen is now the standard in Android phones. This gives the S5 a PPI of 432.
Samsung has been using AMOLED technology since the inception of the Galaxy S line, start with the first galaxy S phone, with each Galaxy S generation, the AMOLED has improved leaps and bound, unlike the iPhone display technology, which still uses LCD technology minor resolution improvement since the first iPhone.
One of the advantage that LCD has over AMOLED is brightness, and that has always been the main complaint of the Galaxy S line, the screen is not bright enough in outdoor areas. However, the S5 changed this reputation for AMOLED, the display of the S5 is measured to be 400 nits, which is higher than the average LCD counterpart. In fact, according to the test, when Automatic Brightness feature is turn on, S5 is able to reach an amazing brightness of 698 nits, the brightness of any mobile display technology. This is an amazing achievement not only for AMOLED but for all display technology.
Not only can S5 going super bright, it can also go super dim, in fact it can go all the way to just 2 nits. So the S5 has an amazing brightness range of 2 to 698 nits. Making the Galalxy S5 the most dynamic display ever.
One of the main advantage of AMOLED over LCD is power efficiency, S5 is now even more efficient. According to the test, S5 is 27% more power efficient than Full HD LCD smartphones.
