Well here's my 2 cents on this reader after 47 books and 381 hours later of reading time.

Battery life, awesome. I read about 2-4 hours a day depending on how into the book I am. I full charge once or twice a month.

Screen resolution is really nice, letters are nice and crisp.

Shiny bezel, really do not notice it in any light condition, certainly not enough at any point for it to distract from my reading.

Light seems a little brown at about 50% and tends to be less noticeable the brighter the setting. Doesn't bother me as hell it's a built in light and works for what I need.

LOVE that I can adjust brightness by sliding my finger up or down the left side of the screen right beside the bezel.

IF you REALLY need more storage the back of the Kobo pops off pretty easy and you can replace the internal card with a higher capacity card (following instructions of course on how to clone your factory card to the new one). While I have indeed popped off the back I haven't yet needed a larger card so haven't "yet" replaced it.
