Distracting LED cones

Same here - quite disappointed with the Kindle Oasis. While I liked the new design (size, weight, page buttons, extended battery life) still the most important part in a e-reader is the screen (me thinks). I can clearly see the light cones that come from the 10 LED sources (there are indeed 10) as they are brighter than the rest of the page. To make things worse under low ambient light conditions and high Kindle Oasis light settings - a brownish color appears between the lights that is incredibly distracting (at least to me). Under a lamp source or outside in the sun the screen looks fine. Returned Kindle Oasis.
