I don't think he was referring to color saturation but rather the greater clarity (separation of colors) brought about by the wider color gamut, HDR and finer detail. I think you underestimate the quality of E's reviews. They are very good, but of course I may be biased because he is using the same display that I have. But IMO he is head and shoulders better than the other reviewers there with UHD BD reviews.

Edit: Actually both reviews are well written and pretty accurate, although as mentioned above I wouldn't give this 5 stars (some dark scenes on the BD show more shadow detail). I just happen to agree with E's reviews at HDD almost all the time, while on many occasions finding myself shaking my head at some of Michael's reviews here. But hey, it's all good that we have reviewers we can relate to more than others.
