It is barely discernible, to the extent that I am not sure that it would show up in a photo, especially as I seldom have the light on at more than 5%. Indeed, I hadn't even noticed it until reading your comment.

(Just checked my original Kobo Aura. It has the same extremely narrow band across the bottom so I suspect that it is entirely normal and not a defect. Never noticed that either.)
Here's a pic, the lighting isn't great in the room but if you look along the bottom edge, particularly the bottom left corner you can see the glow and possibly the faint cones. The washout/yellow coloring on the top/right is just the overhead lamp, it's totally smooth otherwise (no green blotches or color issues with the natural light settings).



Edit: Actually doesn't show well in the first pic, here it is in the dark where you can see the glow and the cones a little better -


Is this more or less normal for everyone else?
