It isn't as clear cut as that. Many others have owned both and realize they both have their pros and cons. Countless threads on this issue. Calibrated LG is better than a Samsung.

I know and I have contributed to a lot of those threads. Mountain lion actually helped the LG display out without a color profile. Owning them both side by side though I still have to say the Samsung looks better. It may be preference, but I think most would chose the Samsung. LG and Samsung screens aside, the airs just got the overall shaft in screens compared to the pro line and obviously retinas.

Exactly. Which is why many of us hope that Haswell MBA gets a IPS.
