I am assuming 16 is the number of colors it can display and it should be the same for all E-ink Carta displays. But a picture's worth 1K words, so there:

I didn't realize e-ink uses so few colours... I guess it's enough for casual reading (which is what I'm after), but it's a shame we can't have more. This person was able to increase it to 32, but I'm guessing it's no easy feat.

Kobo does dither rather well. So while it only has 16 shades of gray, it looks like it has more because of the high resolution and the dithering.
