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.
Thanks, Uschiekid.
I just emailed Kobo company with two photos attached to my complaint. Hope they will solve the problem. Photo 1511 shows the brightness I usually use for reading in the dark. 1510 is 100% brightness. Not sure if the picture and a computer screen will show the yellow color. It becomes obvious and distracting after 20 seconds of reading when the eyes get used to the screen.

Edited: 7) Problem solved. Kobo service admitted the issue and will send a new device and a pre-paid mail bag.
