I recently bought all three of the current Kindle readers. Comparing them it looks to me like, with screen lighting off/minimum per the sliding bar adjustment, that the Oasis 3 has the whitest background with the 2019 Kindle Basic in the middle and the current PW4 having the greyest screen background, at least in my examples.

The whitest of all seems to be the Kindle Voyage screen while the whitest of the old no light Kindle screens seem to be the Kindle NT and Kindle Touch which to my eye are both a bit greyer than the current Kindle PW. No touch sensor layer on the NT. Overall differences are subtle, particularly between the Oasis and Voyage screens and the Touch and NT screens. All are readable IMO dating back to the KDX and K2 readers.
