Again, for me they are equally good, or equally bad. There's a definite shadow line effect, more noticeable on the thick edge, well documented, easy to ignore as it falls outside of default text margin.
I had seen pictures of that before buying either so I was expecting to see it.
If you don't like the libra lighting, you probably will not like the forma.

The light behind the actual filled with text part of the screens looks uniform to me and it's easy to thing of the edge effect as being like a crease in a folder open paper book.

There must be lots of pictures of both uploaded already?
