The eInk layer contrast is better since it is a Carta 1300 screen. The problem is the colour filter layer which soaks up quite a bit of light. Comparing a Clara BW to a Clara Colour, the colour screen looks much darker.

Comparing a Libra Colour to a Mini, the Mini has a lighter background. OTOH, the Mini does not have a frontlight.

More storage would be nice too since some graphic novels chew up a lot of space.
I wouldn't try to view photos on the Kaleido3 screen but for kids books, comics and manga, the quality is good enough. I was happy with 12-bit (4096 colours) images on my old Amiga back in the dim distances of the past.
