To me, the screen on the K4B was tons better than the K4S. The K4B I picked up last year had truly "blacker blacks" and a cream background compared to the previous year's greyish background.

However, I've heard some others state the same as you, and some others the same as me, so there may have been manufacturing inconsistencies.
