I’ve never seen an Oasis, my point of reference is the Voyage, which has a better screen than the PW4 (and according to some, better than the Oasis). This had nothing to do with LED lighting, but rather the materials in front of the display panel (which is I think the same panel). It seems to me the materials used on the PW4 were chosen to make it less susceptible to damage, and maybe reduce weight, at the cost of some transparency.

I would certainly appreciate better clarity if the PW5 has this, but damage resistance is also important. I don’t like to use a cover (weight, bulk) and so if the materials have prevented screen damage, I am happy about that.
