There are two comparisons between LCD displays that should properly be referencing S/N ratio instead of contrast.
With a glossy display, whatever is behind you STRONGLY affects your S/N ratio, especially in black.
In sunlight even a very bright LCD is washed out almost to unreadability (though I am surprised how well recent phones still manage to still function)
