pixel wise (read zoomed in), the super amoled with pentile matrix tech loses big here. the iphone display pwns it. text is sharper & more clearer, color is more accurate closer up, etc. but from a regular usage view, both are pretty even, the super amoled display has better black level but the iphone display is brighter.

To note this article goes into the specifics of the display...aka if you use the device side by side you won't notice a difference.. aside from retina having a higher resolution.

Also its not exactly brighter..it only shows that the white is brighter..which is to be expected...by how AMOLED works....

Obviously when you zoom in, the device that has the more pixels per inch will look best...but super amoled also uses up less energy while giving equal view..so I'd still say its a win for super amoled...but not by a big margin of course.
