Except significantly less so in the second pair of images, once I'd bumped p the boldness a notch. Which is an ancillary point, it seems to me, and made above; why apply arbitrary standards in comparing devices when changing the settings results in a similar appearance? I originally used the exact same settings because I didn't know where else to start in a comparison. There are infinite (well, effectively
) possibilities. I could have tried emboldening once more but I'm done taking pictures, which is obviously not part of my skill set.
As an aside, I personally don't get not using the sidelight when using the light would result in a sharper text. There's a major difference between enhancing the text with a little added light and a glary screen, but people want what they want.
Ultimately this was interesting to me in that clarity of text didn't seem to be the dealbreaker in deciding between the devices. The text on the left was good enough (and could be better still, once you twiddled with the settings to your taste). At least no one said it was awful or unreadable. Size matters, warm light matters. And price!
Anyway, thanks all for indulging me. I could keep wittering on but I'm having one of those days when a random touch wipes out everything I've typed, so I'm going to quit now.
