I find that it's in poor light that you really notice the difference. The screen background of the Pearl and Vizplex screens are the same, but the Pearl has much blacker blacks, and that makes it much easier to read. With the Pearl screen I find that I can read in pretty much the same lighting conditions in which I could read a paperback; with Vizplex I often need to use a reading light.
