I know my old Fire HD had some light bleed around the edges but I didn't really care.
Yep it's more a blue than purple. You only notice it at certain light settings or when on a white or sepia page. I didn't even notice it as first till I read the Amazon Kindle forum's complaints. In the dark however when the Kindle at min brightness it looks greenish I was joking with my self saying look I have blobs! They are not in the reading area though. It not a defect it's obviously a design flaw.

I can say the battery life on the HDX is nothing compare to my original Kindle Fire. My other KF I can go up to two weeks on one charge this one uses half it's battery in day so I see without video use charging it every two days!
