Samsung's Galaxy S10 has the best smartphone display ever, claims DisplayMate
Samsung's Galaxy S10 smartphone has the best and the brightest display ever seen on a smartphone, according to display calibration company DisplayMate.
The company's experts took an in-depth look at the Galaxy S10's 6.1-inch OLED display and concluded it has a record-high color accuracy and record-high brightness, among other feats.
More precisely, DisplayMate says the S10's display has absolute color accuracy that's "visually indistinguishable from perfect," and the same goes for image and picture contrast accuracy and intensity scale accuracy.

The phone also has the highest full screen brightness for OLED smartphones (804 nits) as well as the highest peak display brightness (1,215 nits). Also important is the extremely low screen reflectance, high contrast in ambient light and very small brightness and color variation with viewing angle change.
In short, every single issue that commonly plagues OLED displays appears to be minimized on the new Samsung, and all of OLED's strengths are in full display. The Galaxy S10 also handily beats both the iPhone XS Max and the Galaxy S9, according to DisplayMate's criteria.
I've had some hands-on time with the Galaxy S10 as well as the Galaxy S10+ and with my imperfect eyes I've concluded that these phones indeed have the nicest displays I've ever seen on a smartphone.
