I think most if not all Voyages have the gradient to some degree. I was fortunate to find one I am very happy with after returning two before that. Some people aren't as sensitive to color variation or don't even see it. I noticed a slight variation on my current Voyage initially and though it is still there if I look for it, I really don't notice it any longer. I tried the new Oasis and they have a color shift also but it is from side to side instead of top to bottom because of where the LEDs are placed and that bothered me more plus the shadows on the side from the lights. I also think the Voyage has better contrast because of the glass screen and it is my favorite Kindle to date. I would try an exchange and see if you can't get one that you are happy with.
