To me illumination levels make no difference. I read in light shadow with 30% white backlight and this is what it looks like

Kobo service looked at the image and after going through the usual factory reset procedure initiated the replacement process. I'm willing to do this for max 3 times before I switch to kindle. I just can't live with this.

Just one note because I've seen this on a youtube video with the kobo clara hd. One woman opened her device, put some masking tape on the side of the LEDs and this eliminated the light spill on the display, making it perfect. Don't think I want to try to open the forma.
