Albeit, I have just realised in the specs it just states Carta. Still seems very unlikely that Amazon would fail to mention this anywhere if it had a plastic substrate.

My theory still stands that mentioning it might be a mistake for warranty reasons. Look, it is sturdier, I can handle it rougher. Oops. And there is a slight chance that Amazon put the plastic substrate in purely as cost saving to reduce the warranty issues with broken substrate. Not always is a new feature for the benefit of the customer. They do advertise reduced weight.

Also, am I mistaken that I thought I read somewhere that they think the new PW has a glass front screen the same as the Voyage & Oasis? It would appear to be very good value for money if this was true.

That information came from me in this thread and another thread. I was told that by CS in chat. So take that with a grain of salt until someone outside of Amazon has a new PW in hand.
