Install the Kindle for Samsung App from the Samsung App Store on your phone. Then make the comparison.

I use white text on black background and the S5 with that particular App is great in text legibility. It beats my PW 2013 and the HDX 2013. The white text in that app is very wide and sharp. If you read in Landscape Mode, its a great reader.

In very bright sunlight, you are right that the PW 2013 is better but just in that environment.
