I'll be very surprised if the colour models aren't less sharp due to the colour filter even reading B&W text.

I'll be very surprised if the colour models aren't greyer due to the colour filter even reading B&W text in ambient light without a front light on.

If you mostly read colour content (then a 7"+ screen is likely needed), then colour makes sense. A colour eink is of almost no value for reading novels and short stories. I hope they will use the trick of colour subpixel addressing for the edges of characters on monochrome text or serif fonts will look poor.
