Device: Kobo Clara BW
As my 1st Eink device I purchased Clara Colour but after after few days of using it I noticed you always need at least 10% brightness at home. Probably more brightness outside.
At 1st I thought what I got has a faulty screen so I returned and re-purchase but again it's still same. Now I returned it again and decided to go with Clara BW. (Colour is not important for me...it would have been nicer to have double core CPU but I guess single core is also fine)

It has better contrast? They say it has slightly worse contrast than previous generations of carta like Carta 1200.

See this comparison video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26iD9lauEM0
Even kobo that was made 14 year ago has better contrast than carta 1300 : https://youtu.be/eYc0cJSRV_4?t=548
