For me, it's the opposite. I couldn't see any gradient until I tried taking a photo. And it's still very slight and close to the far edge.

Any insights greatly appreciated. Thanks!

This is so subjective. My only issue with the Oasis 2 is how awkward it is to hold. Whereas others here praise its design for comfort. For me, it's not the weight or size. It's only having that one large bezel on one side. This becomes more of a problem lying on my back in bed holding it one-handed. Because of the narrow bottom bezel, I have to hold it up to comfortably read the last lines. Then I can't seem to find a good way to position my thumb on the button. If I use my other hand for support, I often accidentally turn the page.
I don't have a Voyage to compare, but I kinda wish they'd done the larger screen for it or even the Paperwhite. So the Oasis is relegated to daytime, and I'll stick with my Kobo Aura One for bedtime.
