I have seen the various pictures posted by members but it is difficult to judge from photos.
I owned a first generation Kindle Paperwhite and the screen lighting was so uneven that it was highly distracting. Moreover the screen was very splotchy and there seemed to be yellow and greenish tints on the screen. So my question is regarding whether the lighting is as bad as the Paperwhite first generation lighting.
Lightening is very even on my unit. The light has some 10-12 levels. I generally read on the lowest or second lowest level of brightness

Sometimes I read in a completely dark room just before going to sleep, if i keep the light at lowest brightness level, then there might be a bit of unevenness. I forgot what exactly i do during that time - i might increase the brightness to 2nd level or it may not bother me. I will post here with the update next time when i am reading in completely dark environment.
