Thermohydrometer Sensor Accuracy - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Okay so I work in a water restoration company and figured why not test the accuracy of the S4 with the tools we use in the field. Well with any thermohydrometer's they take a little time to get an accurate reading for a few reasons and depending on where it's stored. Our meters are stored in a water proof box and of course the phone is in your pocket. Both of which will affect the readings for the first 1-5 minutes.
Attached are the readings I got within 3 minutes of each other and they are very close to each other to consider the S4's readings to be very accurate. The readings were still getting closer to each other but they were slowing down. So I'd say it's safe to say you can trust the readings the only thing yo remember is that when you've got the phone in your pocket and not off the table you have to let it sit a little if it's been sitting then kick it on and the readings are already correct.
If you have any questions feel free to ask. No I didn't adjust any settings on my phone they were correct out of the box and leaving the screen on and heat from screen and battery didn't bother the readings at all. Holding your phone can if your hand is near the bottom near the sensor.
