Also, for some reason the new screens can't flip as quickly as pearl, which for me is a downgrade.
Pearl screens are lower resolution. The new Carta screens are of a much higher resolution. So they take more to change the screen. But I don't find it too slow to turn the page. The resolution, better black, and lighter background makes Carta noticeably better than Pearl.
