I found I had to get used to it, mostly to learn the right way to hold it, which is *not* to grip it -- that'll tire your hand out really fast -- but rather to let gravity hold it against your fingers fanned across the back of the screen, with your thumb over the top. If you're holding it right it should stay in place from the position of your fingers alone. I flip hands about every ten minutes or so.
If you're trying to actually grip the bezel you'll be in pain in minutes. That's not what it's for. It's not a grip: it's a weight. (Or that's how I hold it anyway! Maybe others hold it in other ways.)

Well, for me it has, uh, a yellow hue, unless you turn it up too high when it does appear yellowish. Typical LED lighting, never quite consistent...
