The viewing angle and reflections on the two units are so different, it
seems to be a poor comparison.

I suggest you ensure they are right beside one another, with the screen
surfaces in the same viewing plane, then get the camera at least 3 feet
back, ensure they are reflecting the same background (and not your
reflection on just one of them), zoom in with the lens, and then click away.
