I rest my case.
EDIT: now, this is ridiculous science, but: I thought "what about putting the Max2 and the magazine side by side"? I did. Result: they are similar, with the Max2 showing softened glares while the magazine has sharper blades of white.
Anyway, I read them both without a problem when needed.

Sometimes magazines are referred to as “glossy magazines” for just the reason you noticed. What I was really comparing against was my Kindle Paperwhite - and I noticed reflections a lot more on the Max 2.
I do wonder though it might be as much due to the sheer size of the device as much as the screen surface.
