Kiyasuriin, 14 Aug 2018I didn't remember precisely the score. Your avatar is better than any display that has tested so far by DisplayMate :D

    And according to Gsmarena S7 has the most accurate screen

      Do they even review brands other than Apple and Samsung?

            "...cause we dont test any other."

                Displaymate is bad web
                No more test smartphone, beacuse LG G7 1000nits is best IPS DISPLAY. And better than Amoled no Burn in

                  Best ever i dont think so.
                  Like a half year ago LG presented an 8K panel.
                  This will be best display so far.
                  And because they presented it thus it exist so this is a big lie.

                    They think people would buy this crap just for the display? Nope. It'll flop like the Note. No more innovations from Samsung. They spent all the money from ads attacking Apple.

                      8-bit , pentile, only HDR10, gamut restricted to DCI-P3

                      Displaymate has no credibility.

                            Yeah and the curves on the sides kills it. Wont call it the best.

There are probably Apps to record these values but for a common user, it would be really difficult to distinguish such minute features of complex display component and its associated software/hardware integration.

                                Kiyasuriin, 14 Aug 2018Nope. It's not the same. Galaxy S9/S9+ can reach only 107% ... moreAh, I see. I'm not a display expert by any means, but I don't imagine that would make a big difference from previous generation of Samsung phones' displays, correct?

                                  And every OLED has infinite contrast ratio, so it is on first place together with 100 other smartphones
