Regarding the LEDs - it's not only the LEDs showing (I could live with that) but between the LEDs it shows on the screen as an yellowish tint or like small yellow rainbows between the LEDs, the light isn't uniform at all at the bottom of the screen and it's quite distracting when reading. From what I've read in here the light should be the same color all over the screen and that is also what I would have expected from a $200 device (the price in Europe). If this is normal for Kobo I really should have bought the Kindle Voyager instead which is only $11 more expensive.
I don't understand the argument that the LEDs need to be visible to light the screen - as far as I know there are also LEDs at the top of the screen and those I can't see at all.
