The answer is it depends. Various companies are working on RGBW and CMYK low-power stable reflective screens.

As far as I am aware all colour systems using reflective light use CMYK or a variant thereof and all additive systems such as monitors and TV sets use RGB.

I think this makes it difficult to compare resolutions with screens.
