It is not perfect, but it suits my needs the best of everything out there in my price range. The screen in the lighting conditions of my home is quite good. Sometimes I have to angle it differently because of glare, but it isn't bad.

It's all about what features you need. If you don't need the features of the 700, then get the 505 for the better clarity. If you need the features then don't sweat it, you'll be able to read it just fine.
I'm glad you like it
