So out of a total of 5 paperwhites, 3 had a noticeably yellow screen. And only 1 had a very white screen.

I will probably order a voyage when it's released in the UK, just to compare to the pw i'm gonna keep. But this time i will order 3 voyages to increase the chance of getting a good screen. Amazon really does need to do something about their quality control, as i imagine many people have bought a pw with a yellow screen and thought that's how it should be.

There is a world of difference between a good pw screen and a bad pw screen. Now to send the bad ones back!
Amen to everything you just said here! Due to the poor screens, etc., on the KVs and the PWs (1 and 2) that I've gotten, I'm ready to give up, but you have given me HOPE! Thank you for posting!
