            our normal eyes cannot perceive you scientific test, what really is your result...which one is better you just keep us hanging around...funny nothing this iphone 5 can say...power consumption, amoled is excellent. color saturation is brilliant...what is color accuracy? color is only become accurate according to the equivalent optimum light... there is no such accurate in real vision. consumers tends to look for attraction, brilliance, sophistication, flexibility, usability, durability and features. iphone is good for fashion, sucksssssssssssss............

                Try to drop S3... It's screen will crack up easily. Try to drop iPhone 4, 4s and the iPhone 5... It will not break and crack easily. Samsung is dumb phone according to one of my indian classmate. :D

                          The iPhone 5 screen is more accurate but I still prefer the screens on the Galaxy S2 and Galaxy S3.

                          The reason? The poorly calibrated and highly saturated colors are not precise but end up being more pleasant to the eye, in a fake way, but having more impact.

                          Also, very important to me, I really like the deep, flat blacks and only AMOLED does that. If you check the black levels on the test, the Samsung's are amazing. In total darkness you can't even tell where the chassis ends and the screen starts, if you have an image with blacks. Those two features make it a lot more impacting.

                                  Apple designed iphone 5 display for their maps so that you will clearly see that you were lost.

                                      Again another bias comparison. No mention at all on battery life & contrast, where AMOLED excels

                                        GS3 has a terrible outdoor visibility. I can't see a shit clearly outside my house or my class. My 1,5 year old Xperia Arc did much better here. But indoor, S3 has a fantastic screen. The black isn't very black though, not as black as most other AMOLED screen, but still much better than any LCD-based display out there. Viewing angles aren't perfect either, especially when you're looking at the white background. S3 has an amazing screen, and I'm not sure if iPhone 5 can beat it. Although in my opinion, if you want display, go with HTC One X.
