Background shading is the key difference.

Background on the PW 2012 is light grey. On the PW 2013 it is pure white. Thus, all fonts look crisper due to better contrast. Those with eye problems will appreciate the changes the most.

Pictures taken by amateurs, like almost all of us, will not show this difference. One must see it to believe it.

Remember Amazon will take back the PW 2013 for 30 days for a full refund with no questions asked. Everyone can try it without monetary risk.
