Therefore I (and probably Shinew also) are unable to explain why your K4 consistently looks worse than your K3, assuming the K4 is not defective. Sorry...
I just hope mine will be fine. I don't have my old Bokeen Cybook from 2008 anymore. Could not get over the fact that it was not a paper book so I sold it after two months. Now, exactly 4 years later, with a bookcase that is really getting out of hand, I'll try again...

You should be fine specially if you never had a pearl screen. It's only when you had a pearl screen of amazing contrast then go back to something between vizplex and pearl that you really notice a difference. I was spoiled with my K3 but I've learn to deal with the difference my K4 has. My first K4 looked like vizplex text with dark grey background. I had it replaced to the one I use now which is light grey and almost black text. It looks like a newspaper to give a better description.
