Device: Kindle PW 4, Oasis 2
So my first impressions--

Light sensor: a bit dodgy. It was working perfect for me, and then stopped working.

Page turns: even at low pressure, turning a page with that is such a slow event that I prefer tapping the screen. Really these things are stupid, I would have liked actual buttons.

Lighting: seems fine to me, high settings wash out the black as expected.

Contrast: Great! Best I've ever seen. Blacker blacks and whiter background than my PW2.

Glare: the same as my older ereaders, the glass doesn't enhance the glare any.

Resolution: Beautiful, sharp fonts. On my preferred font setting this device looks noticeably better than the Kindle basic. But the difference between the Voyage and the PW is quite subtle.

Flush bezel: is great for me, the screen looks amazing with that flush bezel and glossy finish.

Power button: I HATE IT!!!!! What!?! Why did you put it on the back!? I could have put one of several covers on. I can't. It is so awkward and stupid. Put it at the bottom like always, not the back! Good grief! What if I want to hold it by the back? What then!?? Stupid... grr...
