I wonder how they can talk and measure note8 wide color modes, if Android does not support color management! It shoots srgb jpgs and if you load a dci-p3 pic, no built in app will be able to display it correctly. All Samsung display mode except basic (srgb emulation), produce wrong colors when viewing srgb pics, and srgb is all Android understands.
Curved display is a marketing gimmick with zero real usefulness, it suffers from color distortion snd additional reflections at the edges.
New AMOLED Cinema Screen Mode with a Very Accurate Standard DCI-P3 Color Gamut
The Galaxy Note8 has the newest Standard Wide Color Gamut called DCI-P3 for
Digital
Cinema
Initiative, which is being used for 4K Ultra HD TVs and in Digital Cinema for the movie industry. So the Galaxy Note8 can display the latest high-end 4K video content. The DCI-P3 Gamut is 26 percent larger than the Rec.709 Gamut used in 2K Full HD TVs, both are compared in this accurately colorized
Figure. The larger DCI-P3 Color Gamut and wider range of more saturated colors are also useful in many advanced imaging applications, including HDR High Dynamic Range (below).
The measured Color Gamut of the AMOLED Cinema screen mode is a very accurate 104 percent of the Standard DCI-P3 Color Gamut, and the measured Absolute Color Accuracy is a very accurate 3.4 JNCD, which is very likely considerably better than your living room 4K Ultra HD TV. The Galaxy Note8 is one of the first displays to reach full 100% of the DCI-P3 as the result of using a new high saturation “Deep Red” OLED. See the
Color Accuracy section and the detailed
Color Accuracy Plots for the measurements and details. Select the AMOLED Cinema screen mode using Display Settings – it is not the default screen mode for the Galaxy Note8.
AMOLED Photo Screen Mode with a Very Accurate Standard Adobe RGB Color Gamut
Most high-end digital cameras have an option to use the Adobe RGB Color Gamut, which is 17 percent larger than the Standard sRGB / Rec.709 Color Gamut used in consumer cameras. The AMOLED Photo screen mode on the Galaxy Note8 provides a very accurate Color and White Point calibration to the Adobe RGB standard, which is rarely available in consumers displays, and is very useful for high-end digital photography and other advanced imaging applications.
The measured Color Gamut of the AMOLED Photo screen mode is a very accurate 100 percent of the Standard Adobe RGB Color Gamut, and the measured Absolute Color Accuracy is a very accurate 3.3 JNCD. See the
Color Accuracy section and the detailed
Color Accuracy Plots for the measurements and details. Select the AMOLED Photo screen mode using Display Settings – it is not the default screen mode for the Galaxy Note8.

Basic Screen Mode with a Very Accurate Standard sRGB / Rec.709 Color Gamut
The Basic screen mode provides a very accurate Color and White Point calibration for the Standard sRGB / Rec.709 Color Gamut that is used to produce most current consumer content for digital cameras, TVs, the internet, and computers, including photos, videos, and movies. The measured Color Gamut of the Basic screen mode is a very accurate 106 percent of the Standard sRGB / Rec.709 Color Gamut, and the measured Absolute Color Accuracy is a very accurate 3.1 JNCD, which is very likely considerably better than your living room HDTV and also your laptop and computer monitor.
Use the Basic screen mode for the best color and image accuracy for most current consumer content, which is especially important when viewing photos from family and friends (because you often know exactly what they actually should look like), for some TV shows, movies, and sporting events with image content and colors that you are familiar with, and also for viewing online merchandise, so you have a very good idea of exactly what colors you are buying and are less likely to return them. See the
Color Accuracy section and the detailed
Color Accuracy Plots for the measurements and details. Select the Basic screen mode using Display Settings – it is not the default screen mode for the Galaxy Note8.
Adaptive Display Screen Mode with the Largest Color Gamut
The Adaptive Display screen mode provides real-time Adaptive processing that can dynamically adjust images and videos. For some applications it will vary the White Point, Color Gamut, and Color Saturation based on the image content and the color of the surrounding ambient lighting measured by the Ambient Light Sensor (which measures color in addition to brightness).
The Adaptive Display screen mode also provides significantly higher Color Saturation, with a large 141 percent of the Standard sRGB / Rec.709 Color Gamut and 112 percent of the Standard DCI-P3 Color Gamut, the highest that we have ever measured for Smartphones and Tablets (tied with the Galaxy S8), and the result of a new high saturation “Deep Red” OLED in the Galaxy Note8. Some people like the more saturated and Vivid Colors, plus it is useful for special applications, and especially when using the Galaxy Note8 in medium to high levels of Ambient Light, because it offsets some of the reflected light glare that washes out the on-screen image colors. We examine the change in the Color Gamut with Ambient Light below. See the
Color Accuracy section for the measurements and details. Select the Adaptive Display screen mode using Display Settings – it is the factory default screen mode for the Galaxy Note8
So for the purposes of what each mode does, Samsung does a great job at it and for farther proof...go read the displaymate review. Samsung did everything possible to color manage those modes and did a great job at it even without having Android Oreo. And not everyone can tell one color from another ....you must think you are the color management genius. Enjoy your yellow iphone display and bluish tints, and non-uniformity while I enjoy my beautiful and large Note 8 screen.
