The thing is that as with any theory, it's much easier to disapprove it than to establish it. You'll need vast majority of the people to agree and be able to stand against both subjective and objective tests/observations. And that's not the case here with the theory that older K3 screen is superior to the newer one.

I do think on the text, the rendering has been changed due to being able to see the jagged edges of the text when in bright light. Looks at W,M and Y in a bright light and you will see it's like the K4's anti aliasing has been turned down compared to the K3 where I see no edges at all.

That's possible I think. I didn't notice that myself but I do remember the Nook STR has different font rendering, making it look bolder than K4 non-touch despite them having the same font & same screen. If that's the cause, then it's software related and can be tuned through firmware update, but it has nothing to do with the actual screen.

Personal perception is what really counts because it's the person who has to use the device. If you're not happy with it than exchange for another one. If you can't find one after you replaced it that works for you then try another reader. What matter is if you are happy or not.

Agreed.
