Wrong.

Has a dedicated button just to turn on and off the light.

No, where did you get this from!?! They both use the pearl screen, I own both and they have similar contrast.

It is good that you posted here, the impressions that you gathered from youtube are dead wrong. The Kobo Glo has the better screen because it has better resolution and a light. If that is all that you want buy the Glo.

It doesn't matter that it is an older device. Ereader tech is pretty much stagnant. And the Kindle Basic is essentially what the even older (as compared to the Glo) Kindle Touch was but with a faster processor.

Now I personally prefer the Kindle Basic but screen wise there is no competition.
