Got the C67ML Carta2+ from an Aliexpress seller. The quality seems nice. The frontlight are a bit less smooth than my Kobo Aura HD. (With high level of frontlights, the lower left corner has a bit more than the rest.) Really no dealbraker for me.

By the way, is there a way/a hack for tuning frontlight even lower than the lowest setting? (Somewhere between "off" and 1 would be nice.)
