Would anyone who has used both samsung note 3 neo as well as note 3 give me their opinion about reading on these two devices?

note 3 neo : 5.5" screen 1280x720 = 267 ppi (rgb)
note : 5.7" screen 1920x1080 = 386 ppi (pentile)

Does the pentile display on the note 3 create problems with text or is the ppi high enough that one doesn't feel the difference? Also, what about the contrast and brightness?

Taking my iPad retina mini as the standard (=100) how would you rate the displays on these two phones (1 to 100 or more)?

Given that note 3 costs 1.5 times note 3 neo, I would like to save some money if the reading experience is not way better.
Thank you.
