To note, while I will post comparisons to the iPhone screen..please do not move this to the compare thread because this is meant for informational purposes only for those interested in the device.
Anyways..for those that read the review from engadget, they did not have the Galaxy S brightness to max..thus it appeared gray..this is a redone review with brightness up

Here is a side by side:
Notice that the Super AMOLED screen is brighter..
Of course the one on the iphone looks better..but a person will not be able to see that much detail...the reason it looks this way is how he pixels are lined up...what you will see is below:
Here you can clearly see the difference..notice the brightness..contrast and the colors!
Now the whites are still a bit more gray then the iphone but you can also see other colors to look better:
Now again this isn't a comparison between devices..but to show that the Super AMOLED display is in fact on par with the Retina display if not better.
