I heard so many people praise the lit screen but one or two also noticed that it is not that even. I don't have previous experience with frontlight, not even touch screen ereader. Maybe my expectation was too high.
Some others have complained of this in other threads, and most people have agreed this is a defect and if it annoys you to try returning it and getting a replacement.
It may be wise to open the replacement in store and look for any defects such as pinpricks of brighter light or the same defect before accepting the new device as a replacement.

If replacing is difficult (such as distance to a store or needing to send back by post), then take into account whether it is something you find acceptable before going to the trouble.

Bottom line, it is not normal.
