Considering the Paperwhite 4 was flogged for its screen and the Paperwhite 5 is not and both models used flush screen, capacitive touch, I would say you are incorrect. Same for the Libra H2O vs. Libra 2 (both use the same screen setup, but different Carta generations).

On top of that, the Glow 2 was a flush screen and the Glow 4 is not and (supposedly) making the screen flush can remove a bit of clarity.

The real test is: will the Glow 4 with its fancy new screen look as good as the Glow 3 which used the older screen, but no capacitive layer.
