While I wouldn’t say my PW4 feels ‘paper like’ it does scatter light reflected off of it, so it does seem there is a change with PW5 with the front surface.

By all accounts I’ve seen, PW5 display is significantly sharper than PW4’s, perhaps in part because they did away with the texturing. I always felt PW4 display suffered because of the scattering.
