I should have said that I have since brought three Glo's for other family members. Two were perfect and the third had a tiny pin prick that was only noticeable with the light up full in a dark room. That one went to my mother-in-law*.

From what I've read about the text being not quite as sharp on the Aura as on the Glo, they seem to think it's caused by the capacitive layer, not the light layer. I would think the light layers would be the same and any kinks should be ironed out by now.
The concern is that the capacitive touch is an extra layer. It's hard to compare as they use different screens and we don't know if the light layer is the same or not.

And I agree the light layer has been improved. Or at least the manufacturing has as there are a lot less complaints about pin pricks now than with the Glo.

* It wasn't deliberate. My wife said get a pink one for her mum, and that was the bad one. I actually get on well with my in-laws. But, that doesn't stop me from making jokes.
