Since this is a reflective technology rather than a backlit one, I don't see how it can "reduce brightness" any more than red ink, for example, reduces the brightness of a magazine page by coating a portion of it. Won't the filter simply absorb the applicable wavelengths present in the ambient lighting?

Likewise, how can the filtering reduce resolution if the color is a matter of filtering the exact same microcapsules as before? Would it be in the sense that border microcapsules will not be all filtering the same color, giving the appearance of a fuzzier edge?
