I might be wrong, vut even that black/green part it actually looks like at the same level of the white margin next to it, so it seems like nothing else than an illusion.

The original Scribe has a narrow gap between the front 'glass' (not very deep but you can slide a piece of paper into it) and the frame around the four sides. It looks like a design defect and I'm sure some people returned their Scribe after noticing it ('it will allow dirt or dust or liquid to get inside' etc -- but AFAICT it does not offer ingress to the internal electronics and it is not difficult to dislodge the occasional dust particles). My guess is they were planning a waterproof model and that gap was to accommodate some sort of gasket or filler material but they ran into issues with assembling the design.
My assumption is there is no longer such a gap with the new design, but I have yet to see any confirmation.
