I do notice a reflection off the screen in daylight but unlike most tablets, my ereader screen is not high gloss so it's not like looking at the mirror my tablet screen turns into in daylight--the screen is very readable. On sunny days (what few of them Vancouver has), I'll head out and have lunch/read on a park bench.

From my attempts at close-up photographs of the screens, comparing a 1:1 image of my KA1 and H2O screens with the same font size and text does not show a difference that I can see reliably. I tried printing 4 copies of images from both devices, shuffled them and was unable to pick the KA1 screen images from the H2O screen images (1200x4800 print resolution on the printer).
