I can't fault the screen, but the photo didn't turn out well. Samsung needs to do more QC of its ROMs, just as Kobo needs more QC of these units. My first was a lemon, and I found my Kobo Vox froze after 15 hours of being plugged in without use. I'll bet the WiFi or other software crashed again - I've had times where Wifi refused to turn on the first attempt.
At least that can be patched, unlike the first unit's issues.
I also take it you missed this thread -
Vox Screen. Good Ereader didn't see any issues with the screen, nor do I recall
PCMag having quibbles. To quote the latter:
"The 1024-by-600 multitouch FFS+ screen shines brightly, although the brightness can either be automatically adjusted via a light sensor or manually adjusted for "night mode". I didn't have a chance to play with the Kobo in bright sunlight (where E-Ink displays like those used by the Touch excel) but the Vox wasn't washed out from sunlight through a window."
