Again very clearly - maybe you will understand it then:
I don't give a damn how dark the screen is when it's not lit; I use no device unlit, even if the ambient light is still really bright.
Illuminated, it's superior to anything I can compare to - even as an unchanging still image.
But I don't use it as such - on my devices, the screen content changes as soon as I use it; and the way it's done makes it the kind of device in the 7.8 inch class that I wouldn't want to use any other (and I have quite a few) anymore.
I didn't buy it because of the color but because of the Super Refresh Technology (in 7.8 there is only C available, in 10.3 only C with 300 ppi).
But I discovered, the color is just further information compared to the 16 shades of gray (there is neither white nor black).
For other devices, I would probably advise against color.
