One very popular reviewing website replied to me that there are no more Flicker or Strip issues in the newer Formas (it was just the earlier ones.) But, some posts suggest it's continuing.
I have never held a Libra, but my thought on the Forma is that the strip problem was minor on my device. In other words, it never has bothered me, though it does bother some. I wouldn't count on it being absent. I find the Forma a bit faster on the hardware side than my Aura ONE, but in terms of build quality, there seem to have been issues with both. My Forma, for example, no longer connects via USB, which means my patches disappear with a new firmware update. This is an aspect of Kobo build quality which continues to bother me, as for example in the touch screen problems with the Aura ONE.
