Just got my freshly ordered Kobo Libra Color. Following the thread I expected a slightly worse b&w Screen quality, but the device I got is worse then expected.

The Screen is much darker, about 85% Light setting is equivalent to 20% on my sage.
The colour of the comfort Light in its whitest/coolest setting is still warmer then my current default Temperature on the sage which ist roughly 15%.
There is a to me quite visible grid about 1x1 milimeters visible in most angles.
There is a slight rainbowy moire effect even after cleaning the screen.
To me the screen feels more like an old LCD then a booklike epaper experience.

To be fair I was always One of those people that was very prone to notice colour gradient and Light uneveness in the early frontlights, so your milage may vary. But if you are succeptible to this aswell, avoid this Generation of screens.

In Addition the body itself fells just like plain plastic to the Touch, with no anti-slip rubberized coating.
