Lo an behold, I get a device with a screen that has a patch that is significantly brighter near the edge of the device, making for some truly distracting reading. Not going anywhere near the old exchange process with this one - I am sending it straight back for a refund.

I don’t know why I expected anything different. Sticking to my kindle oasis 3.
Seems most users are happy with the quality of the Sage, but of course every vendor can have Monday samples.

My main concern, and reason for not aquaring the Sage is the heavy increase in weight compared to other e-book readers, including previous Kobos.
