I believe what they finally did was make a cutout frame for both readers from the same color paper to really judge them fairly, and then they could see no difference.
My 350's screen does look darker, but with that silver frame I have often wondered if it was a trick, since it's so reflective. I'll have to get a case that wraps around it all and maybe then it will look nicer. I wish they had come out with a black or blue model in the US.
