Edit: Alas sounds like it is somewhat similar to the PW problems. Not really a problem of external light, but all led and lightguide. I will pass on the Voyage until there is no more problems reported here.
Correct on all counts, and I'm going to let it be for now. The 2nd V is going back immediately. Much, MUCH worse than the first with terrible diagonal blotching and color graduation that goes lower still.

I can't believe that I'm even saying this, but for the moment at least, I am keeping V #1. I am very frustrated, but it is better for my eyes than either my PW1 or the PW2 that I ordered as a backup in case the V #2 was bad. My new PW 2014 is creamy and I prefer the lighting and tone of the V and my PW1 so it is going back with the V #2.

I would, but I don't think that I'm strong enough right now to take the bashing that will come if no one sees what I see. I may feel differently tomorrow.

My Note 3 is an absolute joy, and has been from day 1, and I love it so much that I am afraid to upgrade to the Note 4. I went from an Evo 3G, which was rooted and AMAZING, to an Evo 4G LTE and the performance difference was night and day. I wanted to throw my LTE at my windshield every time I used it (much like I want to do with my PW1).
