Why don't you get one for yourself and try it out? If you don't like it, you can always return it?

What causes eye strain for one person, may not for another. What is too bright for one, may be just right for someone else. Our vision can be very different from one person to another! I could say to you that I have eye strain but that could be because I am more sensitive to bright light/sunlight than the average person, or vice versa....
I agree that in general, it is accepted that a backlit device causes more eye strain than front lit. But that does not mean that some persons won't have eye strain on a front lit device or that everyone who reads in the dark on a tablet will have it.
