So, in the case of Kindle 4B vs. Paperwhite 2 the comparison is that of the light covered Kindle 4B vs. Paperwhite 2 with its integrated front-light. The surroundings are dark or at least as dark as they can be at night, of course nothing is absolutely dark, hence the double-quotes.

Do you not think that the integrated light of the PW is much better than any clip-on light or lighted cover when it comes to the evenness of the illumination? I used Amazon's lighted covers for both the K3 and Touch, and both provided very uneven lighting - the K3 especially, where the light all came from one corner, and the light fell off in intensity both horizontally and vertically). Compared with any clip-on light, or external light source, the PW's frontlit screen is just fantastic, to my mind.
