Very true, good point.

My eyes are nowhere near as sensitive as yours to any screen issues but I am constantly surprised by the number of people who are very happy with how the screen looks on their device.

It is unfortunate that there are still quite big variations in the screens on individual models. There's clearly a cost v quality balance, which makes the Kindle Voyage quite a disappointment whereas the Paperwhite is pretty good (but only at the second attempt). And so far there is only one ereader that is truly premium and worth spending the extra cash on, and that's the Aura H2O. There are still some variations in its screen, but far less so than any other.
I agree wholeheartedly. For someone who is very sensitive to screen variations and colors, it's been a dream for me. The screen is perfectly even with no colors. It still makes me giddy sometimes looking at it. After my bad voyage screen experience, I was ready to stick to my Paperwhite 2, which is a good one, but it took me a few tries to get one. However, the text is more faded as compared to my H20 and I also don't care for the thin kindle fonts. All around, the H20 is a winner for me. I'm just so happy to have it and enjoy reading on it so much.
