Yes, part of the problem is the time of day. Kobo's blue is particularly felt in near-complete or complete darkness and particularly in comparison with other devices. Lacking a point of comparison, you maybe would not notice.
Kobo's blue frontlight is barely tolerable for me in darkness with black background. In dimness (i.e. light enough to walk around in the room without lights on, but too dim to read without lights on) it's more tolerable. At brighter times, frontlighting becomes irrelevant, because you can read without it anyway.

As you list an Kobo Aura H2O in your devices, then I assume you are talking about that. (It probably is a good idea to state this so there is no confusion.) I also have an Aura H2O and do not find the light to bright for a dark room. I turn the light level down, but think I stop at around level 5.
For the colour, it has never bothered me. I'm not convinced by the arguments about the blue light, but I don't see this as being more blue than any other lighting around me.
