I was given the latest gen Kindle Basic. Not something I would have purchased for myself, but it will work to replace my current travel reader. Surprisingly, the screen looks pretty good when I look at it away from my other readers. When I put it next to my Oasis 3, though, the basic looks somewhat...muddy, I guess. I haven't checked it next to any of the others yet. I'm not sure if I will...it doesn't need to be perfect. It was a gift, and I love the person who gave it to me, so that's all that matters
