I did not like the added thickness however minor to the height of the bezel.
Forevermore there appeared a tiny gap on the bottom side of the bezel because I only applied the tape to the sides.
After cleaning the edges with alcohol I am quite happy with the result.
I actually went to Chapters this morning and compared my unit with their demo. Granted they have bright lights but I did not notice any difference in screen brightness. I am thinking the lack of leak spots (I had 5 bright spots) gave me the illusion of darker screen.
I was able to read comfortably in complete dark with both settings at 30% and in outdoors with 50% light the screen looks like paper.
Again it is easy to mess up the device so like I said unless one can afford to brake and lose warranty, shouldn't do it.
