Well yeah, e-paper is not white.
The black isn't perfectly black either, so I agree, contrast is probably very low compared to most other technologies. It might be as low as 1:25 or so.
BUT -- does it matter at all? It's still the best reading display we've got, and it's perfectly serviceable for reading text. Out of all complaints I've ever had with my e-reader, whiteness of white or blackness of black never actually crossed my mind.
Most books aren't white either, in fact all my books seem to be yellow (and not really that much brighter, actually).

I just wanted to know it's just an impression of mine or rather the Kobo has a worse screen than other ereader, the Kindle especially

They use exactly the same screen (when comparing Perl vs. Perl and Carta vs. Carta) so I wouldn't expect so.
