This same screen 1080p 5 offers a pixel density of 441ppi and a sub-pixel density 312ppi, slightly less than its iPhone counterpart which displays 326 ppi subpixels. This difference results from the fact that the Galaxy S4 prevailing green.
Precision signed Super AMOLED
Accuracy side, the presence of Super AMOLED speaks for itself. It is the reference in terms of color saturation.
