The best this can do is give us an idea of the general differences between the devices under a certain set of circumstances, allowing each person watching to subjectively state an opinion (mine would be that the Kobo shows the different color gradients more clearly, but at the detriment of appearing blown out and "over exposed"). But it would be unwise to definitely state one is better than another.
I think we can make assessments based on this video. And I expect there will be more comparisons videos.

This is basically the way the Kindle looked compared to the Kobo before color.
