The three 10" e-readers I own, the PocketBook InkPad X, Kindle Scribe and Kobo Elipsa 2e, have virtually flawless lighting. In fact, I bought the Elipsa 2e mainly because of the quality of its lighting. In comparison, I was quite disappointed with the lighting on the Kobo Sage and the Libra Colour (although each specific device may vary significantly). On the other hand, I have seen other 10" e-readers with very uneven lighting. But I can say the same about my smaller e-readers (6", 7" and 8"). I have some with fantastic lighting and others with very poor lighting. So I'm not at all sure that size is a decisive factor in lighting quality. In theory, it should be more difficult to illuminate a larger screen evenly, but my practical experience tells me otherwise.
